Parents nowadays want to be their kids friend. While that's okay when they're adults, they need a PARENT to set boundaries.

We didn’t negotiate. If one of us said NO to something then it was NO. They would occasionally try to get us to say yes to something after the other said no. The question was always “what did dad say? If dad said yes then I’m ok with it. If he said NO then NO.” Dad would do the same thing. They could never play us against each other. Edit: there always came the moment that I would tell them, when the teen years came, “I’m not here to be your friend. I’m your mom. When you grow up and mature we can also become friends but while you are a minor, and a brat, no such thing will happen.” They have grown up and we are friends. Parents need to “parent” their kids. Your kids have friends at school, they need you to be a parent more than anything else.

Always think ahead. If the kids call your bluff, can you DO what you threatened? If not, you look weak when you back down. Always assume the kid is more determined than you are. My father once tried to cancel Christmas, so my sister and I calmly undecorated the tree. He realized our mother would be upset, and changed his mind. We had the tree restored before Mom got back from the store. He didn't make that mistake again.

The only negotiations I do is if you want a second serving of fries you gotta finish your veggie first or if you want to play x you gotta clean up y first. Works fine if im teaching order of operations instead of caving to demands.

Negotiate is for smart adults who want to raise smart children. It's a term used to maintain healthy relationships and business ventures. How many dumb adults does it take to read a parenting book? Or better yet, read a dictionary?? ❤ God protect these kids from thier abusive parenting. 🙏
