[quote=Anonymous]Freedom. They did the parenting heavy lifting when we were younger (fun, loving but fairly strict parents) so by the time I hit high school I had a lot of freedom, no curfew, could drink freely at home, that sort of thing. It was great to know my parents trusted me and on the occasions when I did screw-up (nothing serious) I could talk to them about it rather than having to hide it. They never freaked out about drinking or sex or any of that stuff, just left the door wide open for me (and siblings) to come to them with questions, concerns, and the like. Four kids of different temperaments, no drug problems, no alcohol problems, no jail time, all happily married, employed, raising families, and still close with them. So they must have done something right. [/quote]
