RE: Is The Parental Role In The Modern Family Changing From a More Disciplinary One To That of A Friend?
I find that friendships are not more lasting, or closer relationships. My role in my children's life is to be a mentor and instructor through the early years, a cheerleader in the middle years and a confidant as they grow older. Of course, underlying that, we are always "friendly" but I hope I am much more than a friend to my eight.
