Aa
sorry
Some people have called me a bad parent because I'm not going to let my kid do whatever he wants.
I got called a bad parent because I said I WANT my kid to graduate.
I got called a bad parent because my kid don't need a damn IPhone or any touch screen till I at least know they are responsible enough to have one probably the age of 16. Maybe. I don't want my kid on their phone 24/7 and texting and watching videos when they should be doing school work.
My child will have chores. My child will get disciplined . No I'm not going to be super strict when he's a teen but he will not get away with doing things adults do.
Call me a bad parent idc but to me it seems like you are the bad one.

Guess I will be a bad parent as well...
Being an educator at work, I know kids are happier when they are given boundaries, and when they're aware of the fact that they are not in charge of everything. Even if at a particular moment they might seem unsatisfied with your decision, overall they feel more secure when they have rules to follow, and tasks to do. Otherwise, they feel everything is in their own responsibility, and that's a scary feeling - even I, as an adult don't want to be responsible for everything...

When we were kids we didn't have iphones we had OUTSIDE and that's how I want my child raised is playing with kids and outside
Guess I will be a bad parent too...I already told my finance o don't want our little man with a phone. Because o feel that kids now a days don't communicate well. They always want their phones and can't talk when others try to male conversation with them. My baby will read and do activities when he's bored not be on twitter and any other scoical media at a young age...that's just how I feel.
I was rude to my mom, and I didn't have a phone till I got married.
Now that I have a baby on the way I don't want tidas being like me

Wow, this is how children should be raised. Children shouldn't be sitting in front of a screen all day, whether it's a computer,TV, cell phone, etc. Kids should have chores and shouldn't be able to do whatever they want. Kids need parents that are a little strict and they need discipline. I see so many bad kids everyday and I don't want my kids to turn out like that. In a lot of people's eyes I might seem like a bad parent, or too strict of a parent, but I'm going to raise my kids to be smart, responsible, kind, considerate adults. I can't stand it when parents give in to everything their kids want or let their kids disrespect them.
Makes me one as well but I get it all the time because my older children have chores to do and everyone says I am mean cause I am not letting them be kids these chores mind you are age appropriate... but like everyone said do what you feel is right for your child :)
In my eyes this is the only way to raise a child that will be well adjusted when he/she reaches adulthood. This is the way I was raised this way and am proud of the person I am today.
That goes for me too. Raise your child as it suits you. You don't need anyone's approval
Guess im a bad parent too as i am going to apply the exact same traits to my parenting :)
