[quote=Anonymous]We are not exceptionally wealthy and we are certainly not famous, but our 3.5 year old son is expected not to interrupt adults, to be quiet in the house, not to pick up anything off the floor, and not get food on his clothes. He fails on the last one occasionally but is otherwise very well behaved. We didn't really have to do anything other than constantly remind him of the expectations, so I do think we also lucked out in terms of his personality. However, he sees other parents not correcting behavior that would never be acceptable in our house. That is the one thing that makes it harder as our son gets older: explaining why other kids are allowed to do things he is not. If it makes a difference, my husband and I are both from (different) European countries, and our friends from back home all tend to employ the same parenting techniques and have similar results.
