[quote=Anonymous]I don't know! I try to let my kids know that I like being with them and that I think they're fun and funny. We do lots of family stuff together. I give them some control over their lives and let them think they're making "big" decisions. I act silly with them, I don't insult them or use negative reinforcement. I have boundaries and structure but am not overly strict. We have a wide circle of friends and I try to model how to be a good friend and a reliable person. I tell them every day that I love them, I tell them they're smart and funny and good at things they try to do. Sometimes I let the laundry go and just go do Playdoh with them, or paint on the back deck. I have no idea what the outcome of my parenting will be. I hope good! I just think the bottom line is if your home is stable and happy, the kids have structure, and the kids know you love them AND like them, it's hard to go wrong. [/quote]
