You must not have children. Half of a parent's job is to keep hands out of cookie jars and the other half is to encourage exploration.
That's what makes parents crazy. It can be done, but not while being a part time parent and letting the Daycare/State School/Tivo do 90% of the raising.
Hi Bill.
It's what you don't see when you're unconscious for some parents.
I have one excellent biological son, he never causes any problems.
I wake up at random times in the early morning from insomnia
and check the family computer room, I have never seen my son
on the computer past the hour, which is good, also, my son has never had a spanking growing up as a kid from me, my son is 18 years old now, it's important that one never loses their buddyship with their child or a child will find a better friend than you, he has never talked back to me or my second wife in those 18 years, he still lives at home contently, all the families computers reside in one room, the den.
I was mainly refering to what gossip I have heard from other parents
directly where their children rebel against parent hood, where some kids like to sneak out when everyone is asleep or get on the internet to go into chat rooms or dirty sites, just raised the wrong way I guess.
