[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom was a little OCD about cleaning, but other than that, there really was no crazy shit. She was very laid back about everything else and had absolutely no interest in whether I was doing homework and just sort of left us to fend for ourselves in school. Actually, although we were close, she didn't do that much actual parenting at all, and I didn't really need much. It worked out great for me, so now I feel like an asshole when I have to get a little bit helicoptery about my own kids (I was a better student and more self-motivated than either of them are). DH was raised in a similar style and it might have made us both ill-equipped to be parents in the 21st century. [/quote] This is the same for my DH and me. Our parents were sooooo hands-off. We're parenting our kids very similarly and it concerns me sometimes...not enough to change, though! Haha![/quote]
