>>9213131It's certainly different.
I'm channeling my grandparents parenting style.
They had 6-8 kids and had a small house, 2-3 to each bedroom. At most, we'll only have 4 kids, but I don't care about nice things, I just want a big, close nit family.
My parents are still close to their siblings, but somehow think we're doing it wrong for not giving each kid their own bedroom and their own bathroom while driving them around in the newest 'safe®' car.
Somehow they've forgotten (or blocked out) their childhood without air conditioning, sharing rooms, or seat belts and air bags ...
I shared a room with my brother for awhile. It was like a slumber party every night.
