[quote=Anonymous]I don't know a single family with arbitrary rules. Not a single one. I know plenty of families with rules that are different from my own, or that would be very ill-matched with my children's personalities and our family culture. Which seems more likwly, OP: 1) there are a limited subset of rules that families can reasonably enforce, beyond which all offspring will end up tearing their life to shreds by breaking every possible rule, or 2) There are as many approaches to parenting as there are children, each with benefits, drawbacks and outcomes that can be difficult to comprehend or those who do not intimately know the children and parents involved. The dearth of serial killers would suggest that there are more ways to raise a child than you're allowing.[/quote]
