[quote=Anonymous]I am early in this game, older dd is only 5. But I have this constant disagreement with dh on this. I've always wondered how I developed a preternatural confidence, given that it seemed my parents didn't really parent me all that much (they had a brood of younger kids to deal with). Lo and behold I can already see how letting my 5 year old have responsibility and take care of some of her own needs is boosting her confidence. One of the biggest things I see is the thrill she gets from me trusting her with, say, knives. [/quote]
