An Educated Dog is a happy Dog
When my now-adult daughter was a child, another child once hit her with a metal toy truck. I watched that same child, one year later, viciously push his younger sister backwards over a glass surface coffee table. His mother picked him up, immediately afterward (but not her frightened daughter), and told him in a hushed tones not to do such things, while she patted him comfortingly in a manner clearly indicative of approval. She was out to produce a little god emperor of the Universe. That's the unstated goal of many a mother, including many who consider themselves advocates for full gender equality. Such women will object vociferously to any command uttered by an adult male, but will trot off in seconds to make their progeny a peanut-butter sandwich if he demanda it while immersed self-importantly in a video game.
James Peterson, Do not let your children do anything that makes you dislike them.
I have seen many parents almost slaves of their children.
I know that it's very difficult to educate when you have money. To me the origin of all evil and problems is the lack of limits, of boundaries, of rules. If there is no limits the children will be completely lost.
Someone showed me a book called An Educated Dog is a Happy Dog
I think it's the same for kids. Institute some rule, one rule one limit. That is enough to change everything.
