This is a topic i have debated about in my head for a long time, and I don't even have kids yet. But, I always think about what I would do when it came to raising kids in the future.
Like here is an example that is tough for parents to deal with
Drugsand alcohol...
If you take a pretty tough stand on saying No, don't do it. Then kids will feel they can't talk to you, and also they might rebel against you. You all the sudden become the bad guy. Plus, if they are drunk at a party even if you say to call, they don't want to get in trouble so they put theirself in bad situations.
But, at the same time, if you encourage it then you are looked at as a bad parent. But, if you let them do it at home or something, atleast you are there and know they are at home safe. And if you act like its not a big deal then they are more apt to talk to you about things and avoid maybe fatal accidents. But, at the same time, would they might have no done it if you wouldnt have encouraged it?
