[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ah, growing up in the good ol' days, when some neighborhood families had a mix of boys and girls, some had only boys, some had only girls, and some had only children. And everyone played and got along and hung out, or not, and there was no need for group therapy or Causes over what kind of family you had. [/quote] + 1 But that was true then because most of our parents were not hyper focused on us. This did not mean they did not love their kids but that they were not hyper focused as parents are today. I went outside to play and returned home HOURS later. My mom just knew I was outside with the neighborhood kids. Instead most kids today are involved in organized activities that dictate that we parents be more involved. The style of parenting is just different now than then so of course it penetrates to every level of parenting and we end up with boy vs. girl-mom wars.[/quote] You may be describing yourself and your peers as "hyper-focused," but you're not describing me and most people in my friend group. I definitely know these types of parents; but they aren't in our friend group for a reason. [/quote]
