Very interesting article Sam..I do not have my own kids but I have niece and I have a great relationship with all kids. I always treat them like they are adults and I trust their insticts. On the other hand me as a human I have a big problem.I always spend more money that I can not afford. My psycologist told me that I don't have bountries because my father never said no to me!! He was always giving to me whatever i wanted.So I am thinking shall we let kids free which is the way I act till now or we should put some bountries on them? I think we should let them free to develop their own personality and never doubt their insticts!! It is their own life and i think the most important Job of the parent is to give love and compassion to their kids. Eventually everyone finds his way!!
