My parents were fair. But my personality is such is I have always tried not to get into trouble. That has haunted me recently at work because I was marked down for taking on too many things in my review. Ah, I don't see out these projects, managers seek me out to do them. The one thing that HAS change, we keep adding managers! Staff of 70 workers, 10 managers!
My DS I think would be okay with how he was treat.
DD is 27 and still gives us a hard time about not being able to go to a concert, on a school night, during finals week!. That wasn't an issue for DW and I, concerts were always on Friday and Saturday night when we were kids.
