-
- And if parents so much as yell at their kids, they're being abusive.
-
- Have you ever heard of Dr. Spock, the one whose books spawned a
- generation of kid.monsters?
-
- You remind me of him.

-
- No, there's been no such thing as absolute subjugation. My brother got
- more out of hand than just arguing. He kept his own hours, and was,
- more than I am now come my Internet access, a part-time kid; I hardly
- ever saw him much. Then he didn't want to put any money into the house
- (well, that's just 2 grades worse than me - I do it occasionally), and
- he was gone for days at a time at friends' houses.
-
- We disagree, but we don't take cheap shots at each other around here
- or slam the gavel of authority. It's when a parent comes home from
- work to face a fight with their own kids, that trouble occurs.

-

- at times.
