So true! My SiL has said that he realises how remiss he was with his boys (previous relatonship) now he has my DGDs. Both boys and girls need to take full responsibility for their actions and both need to develop respect for each other. Difficult job being a parent but some excellent advice here!

Gosh how true. Every time my girls went out I did the be careful were you walk, stay with people, never accept an open drink, keep your drink with you at all times talk. It became a bit of a family joke. I even did it when they were leaving the house with a group of boys who were then told to look after my girls.
