[quote=Anonymous]Reason with our children. My parents think it's so weird that we explain the rationale for rules & requests, before expecting compliance. We move into the 123 Magic routine once we've provided an explanation, but often it isn't necessary once the kids get it. My dad especially is baffled as to why we think they can understand. My MIL disapproves of plenty but has backed off in recent years. It was about food, life style, treating our au pair like a member of the family rather than a servant, etc. [/quote]
