How do you deal with that? Does it cause problems between you two or does it really work to your advantage?

hi there hollie. Yes my parenting style is definetly different to that of my friends. Somtimes I do find it difficult to discipline my own when my friends children are running a muck and the parents do nothing about it. If they are at our house, they play by our our rules, if we're out somewhere or at there houses then I wont say nothing. I just hope there parents will see that a little discipline goes a long way in future, thats my views anyway. :)

It's very frustrating though, don't you think? I know that some of my friends are more laid back than I am and ofcourse that causes issues with me and my son. But I try to explain to him that they have certain rules and wehave certain rules. Our rules are right for our family and their rules are right for their family. Sometimes it works sometimes, I get heck! lol
