Strict parenting produces more successful adults than permissive parenting

This hill is unclaimed. Nobody is willing to die on it. Yet. First blood pending.

  • Pay, and you hold it.
  • Anyone can dethrone you for more.
  • Every claim stays on the record.

No claims on the record.

The other side

Strictness became the household default because obedience is the one result a tired parent can verify in a single evening. Compliance is visible. What it trains is skill at avoiding detection, and a child who was never allowed to choose badly arrives at eighteen with no practice weighing a risk alone. Warmth plus explained reasons builds the judgment that survives after the enforcer is gone.
