Yet another article about all the pros and cons of having a child centered culture here in Sweden.

I find that kids who have boundaries and healthy discipline tend to be much more content and mature than kids who can run free and call all the shots.
Parents, we can do better than this article suggests!
Last week I shared an elevator with a lady (probably the grandma) and two kids. She suggested they go one place, and they both called her dumb, a burden to have with them, and kind of a waste of time. And she just weakly smiled at me. If you raise your kids with no boundaries, will that really turn them into respectful caring people?
Time will show....
