Or have me and my partner got different ideas of whats important in parenting? I've been told my Ds (10) wraps me round his little finger, ie, I still make him breakfast/ drinks with tea, he does a few jobs round the house, doesn't come straight away when I call him - its always in a min! However, if he is told not to do something he doesn't do it. He has been brought up to not use bad language, fight, respect and not offend people and not ask for things/money. If any of these happen I tell him off.
My partner's kids use not very nice language (this is challenged by him) if they're told not to do something they still do (usually not followed through) ask for money/stuff. However they are a lot more self sufficient, ie, making their own breakfast.
Am I disney and pandering to my DS or am I just mothering?
