If not for their sake than for yours, because if a teacher sees that you could get arrested.

But that's not what you inferred with your post. You said I was a " sick frick" because I suggested kids bruise. You are the perfect example of the differing methods of parenting. You appear to be the type who would nurture to a fault. My father was more patriarchal than paternal. Justice was swift and undeniable. But I love him with all my heart to this dAy and worship the ground he walks on. Guess I responded to discipline more than reasoning.

To each his own. Whatever my father did, it worked for me.
