Message: [QUOTE="truespode, post: 757350, member: 29329"] Do as they say for one. If I had told them not to and they disobeyed then yes I would ground them. Part of doing as they say is learning to respect authority. Whether you agree with the rule or not, do not break it. You can talk to them intelligently and try to get them to change their mind but you do not just break a rule b/c you do not agree with it. That is disrespectful. Once you are an adult and on your own you can listen to whatever you want and do whatever you want that is legal. All the parents are doing now is trying to show you that there are rules and consequences for violating those rules. Whatever your opinion of the rule is is irrellevent at this point in time.
