IMO that is FIRST-RATE parenting - set boundaries and stick to them.

Thanks,,,,, It surely worked out in my Family. One of the things I also have always avoided is fighting with the Wifey, have never done that. Anyways the result of not letting a Child join in the Dogmatic herd of followers would be something like this...... My Daughter. As for looking back on life, absorb the positives and delete the negatives, after all.. it's one ride per customer.

Looking back on Life,
Quite often we can see anger, sadness, frustration, to a point that I wonder sometimes given the prosperous world we live in, many people who one would think to be,( with their material trappings ) tend to be less happy or contented.
When I look back at my humble surroundings as a boy and into my teens, my parents had little but were contented.
Community was an unwritten word but none the less, a place that shared friendship and respect, maybe because they were in the same boat.
Most helping out where needed. EG: When my three sisters were born and myself later, it was common practice for neighbours to assist at birth in the home or share what they had. Could you imagine that now?
From my observations, I see a lot of dissatisfaction in the media, on social sites and in general, many thrive on negativity over the smallest of things.
Gone are the days of "The Grumpy Old Men" they have long been out-paced
I look back with fond memories, far better than present day trends.
Be happy it's the only way to be!

One thing I noticed here is the poorest Filipinos seem the happiest. On eve people start accumulating material stuff and debt, they seem more like Americans.

So are bad parents.

Parental controls have and will continue to evolve and improve with technology. Parents have more control over their children's access to technology and the internet than ever before. With the internet and devices moving to subscription business model it will become even easier to control and track what your kids do with technology. There will always be ways around these parental controls but it will become harder to utilize these workarounds since younger parents were brought up with technology and have thought of many of these methods themselves. (Much like how my parents almost always caught me trying to circumvent their rules with tricks I thought were clever and original but were actually already in my parents playbook. Example: to sneak out to a party with a friend by saying I was going to stay the night at a friend's house, then my friend would tell his parents he was going to stay the night at my house. That sh*t didn't work and my parents showed up at the party to drag me away.)

There will always be that battle between parents and their children. It's an arms race that will play out forever. If you are an elderly parent you are probably going to lose the battle on the technology front as you are working with outdated hardware and software and will need to go heavy on the physiological warfare to keep them in check.

Trouble is even the parents now are tik tok junkies anyway so what chance do the kids have. Only gotta look around even the poorest have smart phones ... it is an inevitable trend and we are the dynasaurs!
