Anyone who offers advice on that post is accused of being judgemental, or not being the parent of a 16 year old
Whilst none of my kids are that age yet, and I am in no way an expert on anything, let alone parentingā¦ neither is Simon. Nor are any of his flying monkeys, declaring anyone daring to offer an opinion differing from their own as failing the āvibe checkā.
However, Iāve been 16 if thatās any use? Lol.
Personally, that
tit never would have washed with my parents. And nor did it even enter my brain to behave in that way. I would have been asleep by 10.30 pm. School was exhausting! All of us were asleep by 11pm latest on a weeknight. We all had school/college the following morning and my parents had work.
If for some reason one of us didnāt have to be up early the next day, we were still respectful of those who did need to be up early, and didnāt make near enough noise to upset the rest of the house.
And this is what it comes down toā¦ being taught, and understanding, basic respect for other people. No it is not being judgy because you suggest setting boundaries. That is how you raise respectful and kind humans. Set boundaries from a young age, then cross your damn fingers that they as humans turn out ok
It may not always work but at least fāing TRY.
I think we have all seen in the FOD house, (look at the kids bathroom alone) that there are no real boundaries at all after they fully trashed the place.
But if you donāt teach kids this, then of course they will behave like their home is a hotel. Through no fault of their own.
You massive massive bell end Simon. And your racist wife too.
