"do they need rules? is it society who says they need rules so they can conform. Got me thinking."
If they don't have rules, how do they learn right from wrong? From what I've seen lack of rules is just lack of parenting. |

As a brother to 5 younger siblings and a father to 2 kids .... yes they absolutely need rules!
However how stringent those rules are is a subject of debate. For example I was brought up very strict but also showed everything I needed to survive. Kids these days with or without strict upbringing appear to very moddy coddled and haven’t the first clue how to do the basics in life whilst at the same time expecting the world and their employers to do what their parents have done for them and wipe the back sides. |

The rules that kids need should be a liberating discipline that enables them to develop, gradually increasing their freedom and independence as they demonstrate their willingness to take responsibility |
