[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mom (a boomer) thinks that it's because so many of the parents are medicated. She says she thinks they're all on Prozac the way they stand there and just watch their kids fight, destroy property and scream. I have wondered how parents can stand it. Authoritative discipline is HARD. It is the absolute hardest. You have to be consistent and positive. It's much easier to do absolutely nothing or to just beat their asses.[/quote] Ha. That’s a possibility. But yes - the answer is because discipline is hard. I know a mom who allows some really bad behavior (think - routinely leaving marks) and I think she just does not have the capacity to set limits in an organized way. It is hard to watch but at the end of the day, I can’t assume that my way is better. [/quote]
