A. Its hard for parents to let go and allow their teens to control their own lives. The only thing you can really do is have his parents let her know that they'll be home and supervising the two of you at all times. The only way your parents will let up in the protectiveness is when they start trusting your decision making, so try to make good ones :)

how do parents advance their children to become confident and on a good path?
Q. Do some parents seem to know this secret better than other parents? Isn't it true that some parents are negative and some are positive in their approach? Don't the negative ones realize it's self-defeating?
Asked by anonymous - Sat Nov 24 23:42:49 2007 - - 4 Answers - 1 Comments
A. Lead by example. Have the same expectations of yourself that you have of your children. Remember that your children are thinking, feeling, human beings... do not treat them as possessions or burdens. Treat them respectfully - as you would have them treat you. Encourage them to question authority. Challenge them to question everything they do not understand and encourage them to discuss things with which they disagree. And very important is this... listen to what your children are saying.

A. I think its hard not to take parenting seriously. Most people love their children and try to do what is best for them. The problem is that there is no best. What works for one child or family may not work for another. Also, parents are limited by their experience, knowledge, and faults. If parents try to take parenting too seriously, they start to deny their children some of the joys of childhood, love, adventure, etc. I think most parents struggle with trying to make sure their children have a good time in life while trying to make sure they learn the rules as well. It's easy to fall to far one way or the other. As far as experts, I take a little from here and little from there. If I am having a problem, I will search the child… [cont.]

How would adoptive parents react to this?
Q. How would adoptive parents react if there were a bill seeking to "preserve traditional parenting" by banning adoptive parents from calling themselves "parents"? They have to refer to themselves as their kids' "civil guardians," and not be recognized as legal parents in any state records. And hear people tell them, "I don't have anything against your family's lifestyle, I just believe that a 'parent' is a person who biologically produces a child. And I don't want you redefining that term for all of us." And, "Don't let adopters destroy traditional parenthood." How would those parents react?

A. I am old enough to remember being spanked. That was the way it was done back then. Nowadays its a different world with different views. It all depends on the age of your children, mine are 9 and 7 now. I use a four step program that's works for me. First I take away any video gaming. Still continues I take away the TV rights, third toys are taken away. And the last thing i take away are their books. Both mine love to read. I throw away toys when i take them away from them too, but normally they are the Mc D's toys broken ones, they haven't caught on to that one yet. I have also bought a lot of fun activity books for them to play with and when I get to four, books pulled, I sometime tear pages they have done in the activity books out and… [cont.]

How do I convince my parents to let me have a kitten?
Q. About a year ago my cat ran away. I miss him and I am lonely. Now I want a new kitten. But my parents won't let me. When I ask my mom she says yes as long as my dad says yes. But when I ask my dad he says no. I've tryed to explain that I will clean up after, feed, and care for a new kitten but he says no before I even finish! Right now my family has a 2 year old dog and a 12 year old cat. I feed the dog and cat and walk the dog with my sisters. My room is clean and I do my chores either the first or second time my parents ask. My dad has even told me I am his most responsible child and I have older siblings. I know I will be able to care for the kitten because I am homeschooled right now by tutors so I am home all day plus I am caring for… [cont.]

A. Talk to your dad again. Or better yet, ask your mom to help you talk to your dad. You know that sometimes, moms can make dads say yes! :) Just continue being responsible. Show him that YOU CAN do and take care of a new kitten, along with the other 2 animals. I mean, it's really not much of a responsibility, once you had the kitten trained to take the kitty litter. Just talk to your dad nicely; tell him that your cat is getting old, and that you want to have a new kitten. Or better yet, if you want, you can write him a letter, if he says no before you even finish talking to him. Start the letter by "Dad, continue reading. And please, consider my side, too?" Hope this helps. :)

How do I get my parents to stop being racist?
Q. My parents are racists because of their parents, and both my mom and dad have forbid me to hang around with black people. Only, I have black friends at school that I like just as much as my white friends. I want to invite them over or out to do stuff, but I can't because of my parents and I'm sure I'm hurting their feelings!

A. It will be tough for older people to be convinced by younger people especially. I think you should just bring your friends around once in a while for brief visits and make sure your parents get to know your friends. Can you vouch for your friends? You need to also make sure your friends can give a good impression to your parents. Your friends' personalities and charm can hopefully win them over.

How do the Parents of a child with learning difficulties effect the childs education?
Q. ADHD, Downs sydrome, Autism, do children with theses education needs get held back or have more oppurtunities depending on their parents. For example if they attend a mainstream school with learning support or a special needs school and if their parents don't realise thier potential?

A. Parent support and involvement is ALWAYS to the benefit and well-being of the child. That said, can a chlid with or without special needs still be successful if parents aren't involved... yes. When children have a disability that is obvious, such as down syndrome or severe autism, it is considered "educationally neglectful" for the parents not to pursue special education services (in most states, that is). Children's Services can intervene. Most parents wouldn't ignore problems like that anyway because they would want help. However, when the need is something like ADHD, a learning disability, or high-functioning autism, parents can choose to ignore the problems and, yes, it is generally to the detriment of the child. Parents can refuse… [cont.]

Can parents get in trouble with Child Protective Services if they smoke Marijuana?
Q. My friends neighbor is a bit concerned and asked her this question tonight. I couldn't answer it either, so i'll post my question on here. Taking into consideration that the children are well cared for and live in a safe, loving and happy environment. Can parents get in trouble with child protective services (Ontario), because they use marijuana for recreational purposes?
Asked by Sara - Thu Jun 11 22:33:31 2009 - - 11 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Its possible. An illegal drug is illegal which means there is illegal activity surrounding the kids. But in reality if the kids are living in a relatively safe and caring home, the CAS wont bother them. But if there are any questions of the children's safety then they may ask the parents to do a drug test and then they may get into further trouble. I do not condone smoking marijuana, but realistically the CAS has many other 'larger' problems to deal with. But if there are complaints from family members, friends concerned neighbours etc they will investigate.
