[quote=Anonymous]I mean I think the current 60-70+ year old crowd is famous for remembering themselves as PERFECT parents. My parents raised us by yelling ALL THE TIME. While they never hit or anything, we were legit scared for the screaming so we were very docile children, we never expressed our feelings, we never asked - can you buy x - even though they certainly had the $$$ for any small toy type of requests. To hear them tell it now, they NEVER yelled at us, not once. And we ALWAYS talked to them about our feelings - uh lol - no we didn't because if you so much as said something even something positive like "maybe I'll be a dr when I grow up" - you'd hear, you probably won't, it's not that easy, hard work isn't enough to be a dr blah blah, instead of just encouraging a 14 year old's dream.[/quote]
