My mother, on the other hand permitted almost everything and the dialog was open.

This 1 Million percent. Only thing that works- it's called love and respect.

Yeah, I figured I'd show the cards to reveal why I detest censorship in such a personal way.

We don't censor words around here. My daughter knows what words are "not what anyone would like to hear a nice little girl say", but has never been punished in any way for using them. She has been put in charge of telling me to not use them. Often she says, "Daddy, don't say [expletive]"... :happy:

Absolutely. I censor myself, but remain open and frank about any and all topics she cares to discuss. Anything else would be neglectful of her, I'd say. I'm in agreeance that there is no one parenting style that works, just sharing mine, in case it strikes a chord in an otherwise frustrated parent who happens to be reading this thread.

Here's an interesting fact. The percentage of children who go to public school and then on to university for a Bachelor's degree is the same as the percentage of private school children. It's the interaction between parent and child, the parent's active involvement in the child's life and school work that makes the difference. That percentage, for the curious, is 12.

I think the most important thing really is to make them clear what is reality and what is not and stress, that it's wrong to do crazy stuff in reality, just because you've seen it on TV.

That's good advice. Makes me feel a little better about the times my kids have watched gonzo porn with me. I'll just tell them not to get involved in fish hooking, Donkey Punching, and face spitting. :)

You know, reproducing what they see in TV actually is a normal coping process for children; nevertheless it doesn't harm to do a reality-check with them... at least this is what I'm thinking when I'm thinking of my childhood >.>'' ...

I agree, reality and fiction need to be understood. Language in public needs to be taught as well...

Wait for it...
