[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m strict. I have very polite A student middle schoolers. Rolling eyes and walking away is an absolute no go. It’s absolutely rude and not to be tolerated. How would you feel if your husband did this? Don’t care your age, nobody in my house is allowed to act like this.[/quote] We are the same, and I'd consider us VERY relaxed in most ways. Character t-shirts? By all means. Screen time? Sure (within reason). Ice cream? Nearly daily. However, eye rolling and whining get called out EVERY TIME, and if they're not stopped, consequences follow. We don't really deal with disobedience (e.g. not stopping on the street) because that's immediate grounds for favorite toys going away for considerable amounts of time. We also make sure to explain why certain things are not tolerated, which we find goes a very long way with the 6 year old, as well as with the 2 year old. Kids, even little kids, are surprisingly intelligent.[/quote]
