Parents are not interested in justice they're interested in peace and quiet.
Thank God my parents had an abundance of patience.
Parents are key when it comes to keeping kids off drugs. Good parenting is the best anti-drug we have.
I'm torn about late parenting. I believe people should spend their twenties living and having fun and not having any regrets later. I also think people in their thirties generally make better parents but so many of my friends are having trouble - myself included - as fathers get older.
For decades parents were told by so-called parenting 'experts' that offspring would be best raised on the belief each is special and entitled to all life has to offer.
While not impossible it is especially challenging for teenage parents to develop bonds with their children. A high percent of them were themselves children of teenage parents and have never experienced appropriate parenting.
We're living in a time when parenting is not at all mirroring the way I was parented. For me I just followed my parents around on their errands when they were busy on the phone I was quiet. It's a different kettle of fish these days: They run the house and you listen to their music and you go to their appointments.
The Golden Rule of Parenting is do unto your children as you wish your parents had done unto you!
I'm worried about parents who aren't parenting.
Parents were invented to make children happy by giving them something to ignore.
