I was just reading about how kids love rules and how they can be stricter than their parents about rules -- in one of my newsletter from babycenter.com.
"Rules keep life better organized and more efficient for all of us. They also let kids know what's acceptable and what's not. You already knew that — but did you know that 4-year-olds adore rules? They love the confidence they get from knowing the ropes. In fact, their respect for rules can sometimes border on the obsessive — kids can be stricter than their parents about making exceptions!" ~ My Preschooler This Week newsletter
Yup, I agreed about them being stricter than their parents. Jeremy sometimes can be strict about his car seat belt. Sometimes I forget to strap his belt and when I'm about to move, he'd shout at me 'mommy, seat belt!'.
