[quote=Anonymous]I think birth order is really important. I have found that kids who are later in the birth order have parents who are less strict. I don't know if it is fatigue, or the fact that the younger kids are just exposed to things from older siblings or just they figure out which battles they want to fight but it can be hard for a first born to sometimes manage friendships with #4 of 4. I do think that banning things only make it more appealing and if your child has earned your trust you should let them have privileges that come with that with the understanding that the privilege can be revoked if they abuse it. What's the point of being good if you never get anything for it? Also did you never sneak the phone into your room to talk with a friend on a school night when you were young? [/quote]
