| Re: Spying on your kids, wrong or justified?
Absolutely wrong. while some discipline is needed, in order for children to grow into well rounded adults, some freedom is required, and the most important thing: Trust.
My parents trusted me growing up. They didn't care if I was out till late hours, even on school nights, as long as I let them know where I was.
Did I make mistakes? Yes, I did. I got addicted to pot, something that I'm still dealing with today, But part of growing up is making mistakes, and learning from them. With out doing that, you wind up not being ready to face the real world.
There's a reason they call 16 to 18 year olds "young adults". |
