[quote=Anonymous]If you had fewer rules, he might have an easier time enforcing them. You don't seem to realize that his approach is a realistic parenting style. Your pediatrician/family are reflecting back what you already believe is correct, but there are many ways to raise kids. He doesn't want to pick a fight with you but his approach (for example, taking the mystique out of smoking) is really really smart, and will pay off bigtime when the child is feeling peer pressure to smoke and doesn't have to be sneaky about it) You really need to have a heart-to-heart with him, really get him to open up about why he thinks his approach might be just as valid. I say this as one who was in your shoes, and looking back wish I could have the perspective I now have.[/quote]
