Fred, you quoted X's post in full, but you didn't answer it.

Let me repeat/rephrase her questions, in hopes you will respond to them.

1) Why do you automatically assume that other parents (not yourself, of course!) rely primarily on the word "NO" when raising their children? And why, specifically, do you assume that when addressing parents on this thread?

2) As X pointed out, you at first claimed that children should "lead", not parents; then you wrote that you lead your own children "by example." Two questions here:

a. The first is related to (1) above: why did you assume that other parents here do not lead by example?

b. Don't you see a contradiction here? If not, why not?
