I think is good. Funny how that works as in the above poster. The more u spoil(ie. favour) a child, the less they want to leave. Make it too good for your kids and you have a house full of deadbeat kids! As regards raising kids with anger, you end up with angry kids. This is not rocket science. I am not a psychologist. Treat your kids well(not too well) and expect respect. A raised eyebrow is a good one, less calories expended, blood pressure does not go up. I am thankful I have only one.
