    Does your son have a reason to question his parentage often?

    How often do seven year olds get upset with parental rules...
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    A lot. Kids tend to need to be told multiple times for some rules. Leading by example helps.

    He likes to do the dishes with me because he sees that as a grown up priviledge. He doesn't like to go to bed early because staying up late is also a grown up priviledge... conversely he doesn't like being women up at 6:00am even if that is a grown up action.

    I know it was a spelling error... Gave me quite a laugh though, but then I love inappropriate humour...
