-=-My question is there is now some confusion on my son's part & my own what this equality looks like at times. -=-
"Equality" might not have been a good goal to have.? You're not equal to him within the family.? You're more experienced.? You have responsibilities he doesn't have (to him, to the government for doing what is expected of parents, to the neighbors, to parents of his friends).
-=-My son said ¡°if I respect someone I treat them as my equal¡± an excellent perspective.?-=-
It hasn't proven excellent lately, though.? There's a glitch.
Here are some things that might help.
There are links at the bottoms of both of those.
I advised my kids, when they were young, to be nice so they would be invited back.? Seemed simple; they got it.
Different people have different personalities, though.
