[QUOTE="BustedKnucklefilms, post: 172656, member: 875"] I agree with JRich. My parents were never strict on me. Curfew is 11, call if you are going to be late. They always pointed out bad examples. See your classmate ____ got a girl pregnant at age 17 and now his life is over. See ______ is a highschool dropout and now lives in a trailer. I worked construction picking up job sites since I was old enough to walk. There was no question whether or not I was going to go to school and college, because I did not want to do that the rest of my life. I new the value of a dollar. I had my own business when I was 15 cutting grass, I put myself through college cutting grass. My parents tried to set good examples for me and then let me make my own decisions. They would always be there when I made the wrong one,. WTF is an allowance? I had chores to do just to do them. I didnt get money for them. I did them because that was my part as part of the family. The biggest thing was that I earned their trust so they had no reason to be strict. They gave me my first drink when I was around 15. Yeah, I was a bit wild in highschool, experimented with pot, drinking, like all kids my age did, but i never got a DUI or overdosed or got a girl pregnant or got arrested. The biggest thing a kid needs to understand is that they need to surround themselves with good people. Because you are who you hang out with. They say kids get their accent and dialect from the people they grow up with. In conclusion: Set Good examples. Your Trust is theirs to lose. Let them make their own decisions Being dissapointed ALWAYS trumps being mad. [/QUOTE]
