What’s your parenting style?
T-Mobile says I’m a hard-ass. Well, actually they called me “Sgt. Strict.” But same diff. In either case, it surprised me, because while I’m not exactly a pushover, I’m sure not a drill sergeant, either.
For example: Your teenage son is dating a girl he met on summer vacation, who lives four hours away. You…
…think, “A girlfriend he never actually has to go out with? Perfect!”
…quickly up his cell phone minutes.
…have him figure out how much it will cost him in gas to visit her twice a month.
…keep him busy with extracurricular activities. He can see her over winter break.
Or:
…tell him if they pick a movie theater halfway between their two houses, you’ll drive him there.

I am a Terrific Teach
I hope I will be. Since I have a 1 year old and have no idea if I can do what I say I want to do

And what’s particularly interesting is that you can take the test for a spouse and see where potential conflicts might lie and get advice on how to deal w/them. You can also compare results to your friends’.
I’m Sgt Strict, too. Geez…I don’t think offering to split buying a beat-up car, or up”ing” cell phone limits, so he could talk to far away girlfriiend is strict. Instead of taking phone away for texting in middle of night, I would text her and tell her to go to bed. Pretty nice of me, I thought. That’s strict? I’m a pussy-cat then, compared to my parents were.
