To ask for your help with my homework

[l0stmummy]

Ok homework might not be the right words, I'm not 13 I'm currently doing a kind of parenting course I suppose. It's to teach me protective behaviours with DD (I have severe anxiety around bad things happening to her)

Anyway my "homework" is to think about unwritten rules and explain what's wrong with them.

Eg. Respect your elders, don't talk to strangers, never hit a girl.

Unfortunately they're all I can think of! Would it be unreasonable to ask for your help

Are you struggling to think of the unwritten rules, or the problems they cause?

A few that spring to mind
Always be polite (can be taken advantage of, need to be able to say no, sometimes "rudeness" is just keeping yourself safe/not taken advantage of)
Big girls/boys don't cry (mental health, it's ok not to be ok)
Don't tell tales (safety of themselves or others, abuse etc)
You can always trust grownups/ grownups always tell the truth/ do the right thing (no they don't, and it's healthy and safe for dc to know this)
