Hey, come on, I'm not trying to insult you. I'm sorry if it came out that way. I just want to know the logic behind it. I was (obviously) raised in a totally different environment and it's rather alien to me.

I'm definitely not going to say the lack of rules in my household was perfect parenting...I know my kids will have more rules than I did.
