Bril - 99% of us seem to be on the same page. Choice is fine if its relevant to age. It is NOT appropriate or good for the child if it appears to put them in charge of family decisions. Small choices for small children -
'Shall we have lunch?' NO 'Would you like pasta or soup?' YES.
And never frame something as a question if the child actually has no choice in the matter because that is confusing, frustrating, irritating, too much pressure for the child and just very obviously WRONG. Thanks all.
Now - who is going to explain this to today's parents who are already used to outsourcing decision making to the latest App?????????????
Have any of you got all electric cars? Pros and cons please.
