[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Well, I don't have older kids. I have little kids. And I absolutely disagree that [b]you start teaching your children life lessons[/b] beginning in their older years. [b]Decency, kindness, self-respect[/b]? These are things that apply to all parents and all kids. No way that thread or my concerns are specific to older kids. I wouldn't have known about the other thread because I never go to older kids forum because I've only got little ones. If anything that other thread should have been moved to general parenting. This is absolutely not something specific to older kids. Maybe only an older kid rapes but younger kids obviously grow up to commit rape and younger girls and boys grow up to get raped. Prevention starts young. Surprised at your doing this. [/quote] The "older kids" forum is for kids of elementary school age and older. Are you teaching 3 and 4 year olds not to rape? [/quote] I think I've already provided what I'm teaching my kids, oldest will be 4, in my OP. No, I'm not discussing rape with him. But, I am trying to teach him to be a decent human being. I'm trying to lay down life lessons that he'll keep with him. I want to know how a little boy as sweet as mine could turn into a rapist. Yes, some kids can be just bad, but parenting has to play a role. I think it would be foolish indeed to ignore concerns about raising decent kids until the teen years, or even until elementary school. BTW, lots of elementary school kids issues on general parenting, as well. I thought general parenting applied to all parents? My point here, once you explained that "teaching kids not to grow up and rape as well as to be cautious in the world" is strictly the domain of the parent of older children. It doesn't have to be a specific conversation about raping (or urinating) on other kids. Some of these kids don't seem to know right from wrong. [/quote]
