[quote=Anonymous] OK, I read your follow-up and the problem here is that you don't know how to make your kids work. You're in good company, OP, that's the problem with most parents around here, raised in the permissive parenting era. If your kids are young, you have the luxury of time - but don't be fooled. Start now to build a relationship with your kids based on respect, not just trust. Your kids have to believe that you know what's right for them. They need to learn delayed gratification and impulse control. That's hard in a society that constantly pushes the opposite! So a little work now will go a long way. By the time their peers are rebelling from their parents, yours will be listening to you. [/quote]
