I’m Sgt. Strict. Who are you?

Today I took a quiz over at We Are That Family. I wasn’t surprised at all when my parenting style was graded and I was deemed “Sgt. Strict”.

When I come into work or call my girlfriend and share my stories from home (many, many, many that I would never share here), they always are surprised at how strict my husband and I are.

Even more surprising is that I don’t think we’re all that bad. I think that everyone else is a bunch of softies.

So, I included a few parenting no-brainers from our home and for your reading entertainment below. Feel free to adopt any or all for your very own.

***************************************************************

* Children are to knock on our bedroom door before barging in. Only three things will give them an open sesame without knocking first:

1. If they are bleeding.

2. If they have already thrown-up.

3. If they are on fire.

* Bedtime is 8pm. End of discussion.

* Every minute late past curfew = one day restriction.
(Our oldest teenager was nine minutes late coming home – ONCE.)

Head on over and take the quiz yourself. Then make sure to come back and let us know how you scored.
