That’s the thing…Every parent wants to do the best for their kids, but like everyone has noticed, I’m sure some of you look at other people’s parenting and gasp/laugh at how things are or will turn out.
I see kids hitting their parents, some parents give tons of sugar/soda to very very young kids < 5. Parents actually letting kids assume it is their choice to do some things in life (kid's should not assume something is a right or their choice...)
I see all these cases as problems down the road and even though the parents are trying and doing their "best", sad thing is you already see problems for them down the line.
Even in our own family growing up, we see things that our parents did (me and spouse) that wasn't really in our interest or actually good towards long term success and this is why I think having a parent who actually KNOWS what is best helps tons.
flyer, good for you things worked out so well...I have generally admired your success in life and with your kids. Good work...and good parenting from your own parents as well.
