[quote=Anonymous]We told our kid from the start that we cared what he thought, but that we needed to be the ones to decide—if something went wrong with whatever choice we made, we want to take the blame. I think I’m posting in this forum instead of sharing my thoughts directly with my friends because I don’t want to presume to know what each of my friends are dealing with at home. But if you are one of them, and you have thrown up your hands and said, you decide, to your kids? Please reconsider. Kids don’t get everything they want all the time. You know this. If you want to let them decide, just make it clear that you are LETTING them decide. I really worry that kids are going to feel all kinds of guilt and regret, no matter which way they choose, if parents let them think this decision was theirs. It’s really not. Good luck to everyone.[/quote]
