[quote=Anonymous] Definitely not. Don't be ridiculous. I am capable of giving my kid firm, direct boundaries when necessary (unlike the sing-song voice passive aggressive moms who talk about "in our family we don't hit! maybe other families are different!"). [/quote] Ok so if you are giving your kid “firm, direct boundaries” then this obviously isn’t aimed at you. However, if your kid hits my kid and my kid moves to hit back, I will immediately stop my kid and say (no sing-song involved) that just because someone else hits does not mean they (my kid) may also hit and perhaps the other kid has different rules. Where’s the problem?[/quote] I'm also wondering what the problem with explaining that other kids have different rules is. My kids often ask why other kids are doing things that I have asked them not to and the explanation is: "Different parents have different rules."[/quote]
