Excellent post and insight into the problematic upbringing style we've adopted in the western world. I am convinced that all the 'disorders' currently diagnosed in our children are a direct result of the chains we put on them. Your kids are so lucky!

I resonate with that statement @alieone it is like watching a slow motion car crash...we all kinda see it but cant really stop it or grasp the realities that created the crash in the first place. if we are lucky we can do a last second side step and get as clear as we can from destruction. haha... i think i got a bit carried away with my metaphor....sounds dire. anyway ill shoot over to your posts for a peeksy poo.
thanks, i don't think i have any posts up your alley, yet! problem I see is that there isn't much a parent can do today unless they do what you did. The next best step would be homeschooling which might not be possible as it would require a stay at home parent and while in the 50's one income family with kids thrived, that is no longer possible in our era of 'low inflation'. Even a homeschooled child would be fighting an uphill battle because his peers would have the 'recommended' upbringing. Unless something changes we're doomed to raise a generation of medicated, unhappy children :(
