To hell with boys will be boys. Discipline your kids as if you yourself were never a kid.
Respond to the cheerful mischief of childhood with befuddled indignation.
Laughing and frolicking is for ne’er do wells, not the children of respectable parents.
Call horseplay what it really is, an omen of adolescent violence.
If you wouldn’t do it as an adult, your kids shouldn’t do it at any age.
Give your kids a head start by holding them to adult standards shortly after they begin walking!
