A disciplinarian but at the same time a mother. Open and loving to her kids. [i]awww[/i] my fingers are crossed that I'll be this kind of mother Guiding Questions: (Optional) 1. Are you going to talk to them about protective sex? Yes. If they're old enough to hear it, I'm going to talk to them about it. I will also tell them about the possible consequences. However, I'm going to make sure they know what our family believes in: abstinence. I can't be a hypocrite and tell her "YOU CAN'T HAVE SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE" when I didn't do it myself. So yeah, I have a role to play too. 2. What age are you going to let be in a relationship? Around 18. I really want to be open to my kids so they won't have anything to hide from me. Also, I won't even badmouth the guys/girls they like, but I want to meet them before they date, and have relationships with them so I know their personalities. 3. What age are you going to let them smoke/drink/get a tattoo? I won't let them smoke. They're going to grow up knowing what the consequences are and what secondhand smoking did to me. Drinking a shot or two to satisfy their curiosity is okay. Because parties at being 21 involve drinking anyways But getting drunk, I will never allow them to even come to that point. No tattoos. I don't smoke or drink and I don't intend on getting a tatt, so they should do the same. 4. What if you caught your child smoking weeds? They're gonna grow up the right way so I'm just hoping it won't get to this far If it did happen, then I'll talk to my kid about this kind of lifestyle, and encourage my kid to quit.
