I agree it is the best,but I raised my eldest 2 children alone for most of their childhood and their youth,until I married my 2nd husband when my son was 22 and my daughter 20 ,I have never had any trouble at all with them, they never got into trouble at school or outside, strict but fair parenting is the answer and there must be a line of being the parent and them the child ,sadly today a lot of parents are more interested in being on Facebook with their mates all day ,one of my biggest bug bears is seeing parents pick their kids up from school texting as they walk home while little kid run on in front or lags behind them .. PUT YOUR PHONE DOWN ask them what sort of of day they've had, what they had for dinner,the buck stops with the parents, not schools ,not social media, not video games ,social service, they are YOUR children its up to you to guide them
