My parents were strict and now being a mom myself, looking back I’m grateful they were like that. I think you’re a great mom!

Would your daughter still have to get a job if she’s still doing competitive and school cheer? Asking since I’d figure those would take up most of her time.

My 16 old brother was killed on a four wheeler 2 years ago from being around the wrong people that taunted him to do wrong. BE STRICT, ask questions, keep life 360 on main screen. KEEP THEM SAFE. Our life is changed forever by the hands of others.

If you think girls and boys can move about the world the same you are insane or just haven't had a boy and a girl! When my son was 16 I didn't think much about him being out later. (outside of boys just doing dumb shit when it's too late) But you best believe I am STRESSED when my daughter is out after dark!! Girls are always potentially at risk. Period. Doesn't mean I don't give my daughter freedoms and let her enjoy life. But I do absolutely consider their safety freedoms differently..

I literally agreed with all your takes. I was shocked by the comment section . My son is 8 and my daughter is 4. I need more takes on things you may have wished you done different with Dirk. Because the guinea pig child is so real🤣. I had him at 20. We are learning together as it comes lol!

You both are awesome parents! I wish more parents were as active in their kids lives as you two are! These days most kids can’t even find their parents!

I agree with you 1000%. All kids need a job for sure. It teaches them all kinds of things about life.

There's literally zero wrong with your rules. I see kids her age making video's like GRWM etc...and the men watching & commenting is creepy. Worst part is, the parents obviously see these comments and still allow it. You have structure for your teens! 💯

I was the guinea pig child. I’m the oldest daughter. I had SO many restrictions. So many rules. My 4 other siblings are polar opposite of how I was raised 😭😭
