[quote=Anonymous]The truth is that it's impossible for me or anyone else here to know if the PP is a good parent or a bad parent.  I just found her wording very disturbing in the context of the conversation about parentified kids.  She might be doing a great job or she might be pushing them too hard.  there is no way for any of us to know.  My previous comment wasn't about leaving one kid to play alone; it was about the possibility of playing the children off one another and having one be in favor for the day because that one is being the little adult.  None of this will make much sense to people who don't understand the concept of parentification.  But if you want to hijack the conversation just to give your opinion on a person's parenting that you have never even met, there is nothing I can do about it.  I admit that I could be wrong but the wording sounding like there was a strong possibility of some parentification going on there.  It's important to note that there are different types of parentification and one of those describes children who are given too much responsibility to do the tasks that adults should be doing.
