(set up...I'll try to keep it short)
Last night, I had a mom's night with 2 friends. We spent most of the time just talking and it became obvious that we all question our parenting styles. We are all APish people. However, my kids are, um, loud and bouncy.
: Both of these parents have very laid back kids. The one mom was afraid that she was crushing her son's spirit. The other mom worried that her kids are such good rule followers that she is forcing it on them more than she realizes. I worry that we don't force enough because we only enforce the rules that make sense. (for example, no climbing UP a slide IF someone is coming down. If no one is there, go ahead)
So, do you ever question your parenting style? Do you feel like you are somehow shorting your child by parenting the way you do?
