[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 519681, member: 1550"] Malika...the kids I am describing to you are not considered misbehaving. We expect boys to roughouse. Unless they out and out fight, it's ok. I personally wonder if this strictness early on in French cultures stops the k ids from, when they are older, drinking, doing drugs, having wreckless sex etc. Betting it doesn't make any difference, except for the outer shell of maybe more politeness. I don't know. In my world, hub and I raise our kids. Teachers can give wise or kind counsel, but they had better not yell at our kids...we are capable of talking to them. As for kids going off on their own, I have never allowed this, especially not at J's age. Even now, I will not allow my fifteen year old to walk around alone unless she tells me exactly where she is going to be. I do worry a lot. Even my grown kids know that, if they are staying with me, they have to call in if they are going to be out all night. I get very frightened very easily. [/QUOTE]
