“We want to parent our kids until they’re 18 and ready to make decisions by themselves. Whatever decision they make later, that’s a decision as an adult."

The harder you parent, the stronger your children push back.

For a group of concerned parents, they seem to know less than me, and I’ve only been parenting for about 6 years.

Parental influence on behaviour begins dropping around the age of 6. At that point external influences, like friends at school, stat becoming more important. By adolescence it has dropped to around 50%. By 20 it is 0%. When you let a kid breathe and make mistakes, they will listen to you without needing overbearing control…

Clearly, this whole thing stinks of money. They are buying targeted ads on FB and adding a layer of embarrassment that will see Canada mocked and ridiculed. This is a hate group.

    That article’s comment section is insane lol. Just saying stuff that’s never happened or not true, without any evidence, and then going out and protesting these imaginary things is crazy.

      This is clearly a propaganda piece. Or, if we’re being kind, biased reporting. There was absolutely no mention of counter protests or differing opinions. Not surprised the comments in such a space are vitriolic.

      Still, I appreciate this being posted. We need time to organize counter protests. I’m sure less-biased sources will pick this up soon, if it gains traction.
