Do You Think You Parent Better Than Your Parents Did?

A lot of grandparents are about to roll their eyes at this….a new survey asked people with school-aged kids if they think they’re better at parenting than their parents were and the vast majority said yes. 76% of parents today think they’re better at it than their mom and dad were. Some old-school techniques we’ve decided not to incorporate into our own parenting….spanking, strict bedtimes, making kids eat everything on their plate, alone time if they misbehave and making them go to their room, because it’s not really a punishment now that they have computers, tablets, and cell phones.
