[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 451898, member: 84"] Yup. For sure. I was always outside with my kids. I didn't hover, I did my own thing, but they were within my sights or shouting distance most of the time. There were many a time I bit my tongue and let them suffer natural consequences instead of correcting them. I also never went on the defensive if someone came and told me my kid did such and such. I'd get the kid side of the story (I can still always tell when they're lying to me) but oh man, would they get it. But parents today too many live with their heads in the sand and of course their kids are perfect angels and would never do anything wrong so if god forbid you approach them they totally go off on you. ugh [/QUOTE]
