[quote=Anonymous]I think the only people who can say for sure that their parenting completely influenced their kids' behavior are people like C9BL or the Duggars who have enough kids to bear out the theory. Because otherwise, you really have no idea. I have a pretty easy-going and well behaved kid. I also have in my home many of the rules you PP's have mentioned. Does that mean she's well behaved because of my rules? Who knows! Maybe I just got lucky and she happens to be pretty obedient and goes with the flow and doesn't fight me too much on stuff. Now, if I had 10 more kids who were all the same as her, I could say "My parenting created those personalities. They listen to me and my rules because I make them." If I have one or two more kids, they may be totally different from my first. Who the hell knows! Basically, we only get so much credit for how they turn out- good or bad. Sometimes kids are just their own people, in spite of or in addition to the rules of your house and your parenting style. [/quote]
