[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 567226, member: 14557"] I was brought up with Summerhill methods, most of the time at least. I decided not to do that to my kids. I feel that style of parenting robs kids of feeling of safety and causes anxiety. I feel I would had turned out less neurotic if I had had more safety as a child, if I had felt my mother was strong and capable. She certainly was more capable than I gave her a credit, but because her ideology in parenting I didn't feel like that as a kid. I felt responsibility weight very heavy one me because she declined to take that responsibility. I think that kids who challenge the parents the most actually need the parents to be strongest and to give them most safety. [/QUOTE]
