[quote=Anonymous]My mother grew up in a large Mennonite family. She says that in her tradition: 1. Older siblings learn about parenting while raising their younger siblings. 2. Younger siblings learn about parenting while helping with their nieces and nephews. 3. In our smaller families, all the parenting happens while the two children are very young. When it’s their turn to parent, they’re learning everything due the first time. 4. I’m not sure if this applies to the Orthodox tradition, but Mennonites use a type of parenting that produces hyper-compliant children. You start training them much younger. Looking at my family, it creates adults who don’t have great boundaries.[/quote]
