[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Son is very well behaved. Doesn't do crazy impulsive things.

Husband worries that DS will tell one of his friends and his/her uptight parents might report us.[/quote] It's a sad day that our parenting decisions are guided by our fear of nosy neighbors reporting us (and the very real legal consequences that attach to that), and not guided by the actual real risks to our children. I do this too. Not criticizing. Just lamenting the stupidity of how difficult it is to raise kids now, what with all the ever-coming judgment....[/quote]
