You Will Be a Cool Parent

You seem to naturally know a lot about parenting, and you know what kids need.
You can tell when it's time to let kids off the hook, and when it's time to lay down the law.
While your parenting is modern and hip, it's not over the top.
You know that there's nothing cool about a parent who acts like a teenager... or a drill sergeant!

Funnily enough I thought it would be no.

That's filled up a few minutes of my time

I think I'm too old to be cool - same age as you Sugarcoatedpoison but LOs still toddlers so by the time they are old enough to care whether I am cool or not, think I will be beyond redemption. Was never particularly cool in my youth either so I'm not holding out much hope.

Any of us NOT a cool parent?!

GooseyLoosey · 09/05/2007 12:35

Put in the responses that would make me "uncool" and it helpfully said: I am uncool...

And that's pretty okay. While your kids may not think of you as a friend, they will respect you.
You know that kids need discipline and structure, and you're not afraid to give it to them.
Just be careful that your strictness doesn't lead to rebellion.
It's good to have standards and rules, but you don't need to have an iron fist when enforcing them.

So win, win then

one of dd2s friends said I was a bit mad if that counts (I was in a pop up tunnel )
