yes as long as i won't go to jail for it.

so no weird shit,


i wouldn't force them anyway.
i wouldn't be like GO STUDY SO YOU CAN GO TO GOOD UNI

ill take them to somewhere where someone makes mininum wage, working long hours a day.. then tell them 'this is who you could be if you dont study'.
then ill take them to a lawyer/doctor/dentist/scientist/teacher etc.
then be like this is what you can do for a living!!.

there's a way to make kids do it.
like if its cold outside, you don't say 'its cold outside get a jacket',
you need to give them the illusion of choice.
so instead of that you say something like
'it's cold outside, you might get sick. do you want your blue jacket or your red jacket'

nothing worse than seeing kids in public who are animals, and their parents meekly accept it, and try to reason with them.

I actually saw two five year olds hitting their mum :O

the day i suspect my daughter is having sex is the day i march her ass down to the doctors and get her on the pill

my husband will give my son condoms at age 15 and be like "if you dont use these i am going to kill you"

lol & whats normal?

I'd like to think they will inherit my wisdom. Who knows though, their mother is probably a slut.

Yes, I,m old school.

But I wouldn't slap them or hit them. Just shout at them and order them to show respect, act maturely study and not have sex until they get married.

I'd model reasonable behaviour and expect them to follow suit. I wouldn't let them get away with being a shit from a young age, so hopefully they'd grow up to be a nice, polite person.

Wouldn't force them to study, but I'd ask them what they were aiming for, if they wanted help, and give them their space.

Wouldn't force them to get a job, but I wouldn't pay their phone bill or fund their social life so they might like to get one.

And I'd just ask them to be safe. My parents always said that they would come and pick me up, no matter when or where, or that they'd pay for a cab if I was stuck somewhere or if the only option was getting into a car with a drunk driver.

Very much like what my parents did. I feel like they did a good job.
