[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 321730, member: 1514"] Heres another time for me to spout...In the olden days... Why are kids supposed to feel empowered while they are kids? It was good enough for people a generation or two ago to know that "because I said so" was a good reason to do what they were told. They didnt have to have meetings that rival the middle east peace negotiations to decide if they approve a punishment. Parents didnt compromise with kids. They decided on rules and expected kids to live by them. Im sure my grandparents would be shocked by today's parenting. Empowered wasnt even a word that went into the function of parenting. [/QUOTE]
