Creating divisions in the family or pushing the boundaries ?

 
 

"[A] group of school children from Glasgow, Clackmannanshire and East Lothian gathered at Childrens 1sts office in Edinburgh to present films they had made about family rules, discipline and punishment in the home. The films, supported by a grant from the Big Lottery Awards for All fund, were developed by the Childrens Parliament in partnership with Children 1st. The children involved hope that they will initiate conversations within families about home life."

"[They] presented the films to a group of key professionals and organisations including representatives from the Scottish Government, local authorities and health boards and charities such as Barnardos Scotland and Parenting Across Scotland."

Children do not have the maturity to understand when they are being manipulated by adults with ulterior motives.

It does not work that way with parents.
