I essentially said this in my very first post.

I don't think we disagree. I think we have two different angles for the same point. If you think your cousin is an excellent parent whose child is just...whatever no matter what...then okay.

I'll say this. I do not believe children are things to be "fixed". I think they have individual personalities and thoughts and sometimes even patience and consistency don't work.

And for every expert with opinion A there are three more with opinion B, and all four have credibility. (But, that's the case in any field of course).

As long as you know that we aren't disagreeing. Do not take my use of "fix" so literally.
