Family Rules

We learned in class this past Wednesday about certain family rules. Some family rules are set in stone and unspoken and others can change according to the situation. So we cam up with a list of rules which our family has and we discussed with our partner. I was discussing it with my partner and we spole of unspoken rules in our family. In my family the rule is to always call no matter what. If you were out with friends and never called you were in trouble. Some family rules can be to restrictive. It all really depends on the parenting style. For example a permissive parent is going to probably not set as many rules and give the child a bit more freedom. The other parenting styles might be a little more strict on the rule. Family rules can help us to function better in society. Sometimes rules can be to harsh and cause serious damage. I know in my family rules could change as we got older, but there were a few that never changed. So family rules can be a great thing if use properly and taught properly.
