I am not a parent but I do not believe in 'scolding' as I think it can make a young child lost their self esteem!. I believe in telling them firmly what they should or should not do and then explain to them the logic behind the actions or inaction you want them to take!. I believe that children can be rational as long as a person is there to guide them!. And yea, they should be treated as friends and young adults rather than your possession!. Give them respect and they will give you yours too!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Sounds like a recipe for a undisciplined prima donna!. The bulk of your child's personality is hard wired by the time he is five!. Set rules early, read to your child every night, so them love constantly but also teach them right from wrong!. Live the life you want them to followWww@QuestionHome@Com

No!. They never become a best friend, and they should be regularly beaten when they are younger!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
