The experience that parents bring with age gives them an advantage. They see things more clearly and with the benefit of age comes wisdom. I was referring more to ground rules being laid down by parents and followed by kids, like kids should study, get good grades, don't do drugs, alcohol etc. Certain amount of Internet use, phone talk time, I think those are pretty acceptable
What is best for kid or what they think is best for kid? Can parenst never be wrong? They are human after all.
I don't think in parenting there is ever a right and wrong way. There is no perfect parenting formula. Each parent follows their gut instinct and bases their decisions and rules on their principles and education.
Yep, that's why I said, I am just putting up a small example. When disagreements take place, is it justified that the parents override kids every time?
