My view is that over the millennia many, many different methods of child rearing have been tried and they all seem to result in roughly the same distribution of adult personalities.

How you choose do it, so long as it isn't extremely abusive/manipulative, doesn't really seem to make much difference. So do it how you want.

What I care about is when one person decides that a "method" should be enforced on all the others. And this happens in schools a lot where kids are forced to come together. It is an understandable impulse but I don't like it any more.

But then, I am still caught up on the extremely foreign concept of people acquiring kids intentionally. What form of mental illness is that?
