You are right in that I do think that "kids" need to held accountable for what they do and if there is a consequence for their actions they also have to accept that.

The hard part as a parent is to see your "kid" have to learn the hard way. While it may work we would far rather they took the easier path and avoided the lesson. Does not often work out that way.

Sometimes the actual age and circumstances also are there that make it difficult to just sit back and accept it. What they should be responsible for at 16 is different than at 20.

I have always told my two that the first time they make the mistake I will help them and stand beside them, the second time they do it, they are on their own. Now hopefully I will be able to stick to that if it happens and not rush in to save them from themselves.....not sure maybe it would depend also on the incident.

 

there was somebody who committed suicide today in front of the septa train such a shame.....
