RE: Is The Parental Role In The Modern Family Changing From a More Disciplinary One To That of A Friend?

in #life8 years ago

Nice article @calaber24p, I heard a lot about treating your kids as a friend instead of treating like you wanted them to follow evrything you wanted them to do. I always wanted this kind of treatment towards my kid. Making them a friend is a good idea because they will be opening everything to us parents, their choices, their likes and dislikes. But I admit, I was not able to reach such relationship with my kids, which made me believe Im not a good father.

I even posted an articles few weeks ago about how I driving my kids away from me.

Im sure you are a fine father, I think like mctiller said, there is time to be a friend and time to be an adult, and that line has to be firmly established.

Thanks calaber24p, even if I dont feel that I am a good father because of the thing I did but like what I said in my article, I just want them to be a good individual.

By the way, can you teach me how did you put the yellow background in your comment?
