I think it's really hard to control the behavior of children at any age. Some children respond to parenting and advice better than others, no matter how much their parents may try. I remember being very sneaky when there was something I wanted to buy or do and I knew my mom was against it. If I have a daughter (which I hope I do.. I'm not sure I coould deal with a little boy), I hope to teach her to stand up for herself, be involved, be considerate and to find the things and people in life that make her happy. If she wants to show her navel at 13, it might be a battle I choose not to fight. I'll be more worried about her grades.
