Parent Debates by Tamra

I SAID, Say PLEASE!

March 28th 2008 10:43

Hey, believe it or not my mug and a few thoughts on modern parenting were in the Sydney Morning Herald the other day. A delightful journo and I had a chat about whether you are hindering your child or helping them if you teach them a set of values and manners to adhere to.

Check out the article. It's called 'Nice Guys Do Win Eventually'. The photos are no longer there...but it makes for interesting reading.


What do you think?

Making your child wait their turn, insisting on please's and thank you's, cultivating a communal rather than individual sensibility in your kids - is it a good thing?

Or is it who gets to the finish line first is the real winner in life?



I've declared my colours on the issue - your turn. Tamra x
