[quote=Anonymous]I think both you and your child would benefit from reading this book together: http://www.amazon.com/Follow-Rules-Cheri-Meiners-M-Ed/dp/1575421305 It's about the value of following rules. I know you can argue that mindless compliance with rules turns children into automatons, but that's not the norm, and there are clearly benefits to following rules. For everyone involved, not just your child. Things go more smoothly. Everyone gets to participate. People learn and practice patience and share. They learn gratitude and self-discipline. They learn to delay gratification and work together well. You can teach her your family values about when it's OK to bend or break rules as she gets older, in an age-appropriate manner. But kindergarten isn't the time to do that. [/quote]
