Sometimes it might me letting the consequences of their decisions play out. Letting them run the path they choose (obviously outside of something that might bring immediate harm to them) and letting them deal with where it takes them. Not giving up on your children, is not the equivalent to coddling or sheltering. Which is not a good thing either. I'm living proof of that. look if i have a kid and he turns out to be a murderer or someone who bombs the boston marathon i'm washing my hands of that kid and moving on with my life When I say, not giving up on them, that means you keep trying to steer them towards the right path; no matter your parental feelings of pain and disappointment. You keep trying. When your child becomes a murderer, you don't coddle them. You urge them to do the right thing and redeem themselves the rest of their lives. Everything, every action has consequences. Having misdeeds doesn't mean parents should stop loving their children. --- "Ladies don't start fights, but they can finish them." -Marie, Aristocats <cite>Alexandra_Trent posted [p:876595758] in Is it wron...
