[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not surprised to find DMV parents who think their principal role is check writer.  These are probably the same folks who had the nanny pick the kids up from car pool line.  In fact, the DC is probably still in contact with the nanny that raised him/her.

I'm the PP who wrote that I hope I'm just a check writer.  I'm a SAHM -- no nanny. Picked my children up every day.

You should check your impulse to assume that someone with a different parenting approach is necessarily wrong, or harming their children.  That just shows insecurity over your own choices.  The fact is that you are in the minority here.  And I suspect you don't have children in college, so you aren't even posting from experience.[/quote]

+1. The insecurity/defensiveness shows in her insulting word choices, too. I agree, this poster probably doesn't have teens, let alone entered college. Otherwise she'd have more of an appreciation of how proud kids are to make their own decisions, and to make these decisions well.[/quote]
