[quote=Anonymous]My in-laws are wonderful grandparents (my parents are deceased). We see eye-to-eye on the appropriate level of discipline and independence expected of children; they spoil our kids without ruining it; they let us parent, but aren't afraid to step in with discipline when we aren't around. We had kids "young"--30-35--and are fairly right-of-center by today's DCUM standards, but would be bleeding heart pariahs in Peoria. In other words, we read "The Coddling of the American Mind" and agreed with pretty much all of it, but don't attend church and think Trump and his coterie will most likely turn America into a fascist theocracy if they can get away with it. Interestingly, my in-laws were and are very left-of-center by their generation's standards.[/quote]
