What a lovely judgemental post. I am a stay at home Mom, and my son has sensory problems which cause behavior problems, and I STILL get compliments on how well behaved my kids are.
Just because SOME parents want to be their childrens' friend and not their parent, doesn't mean everyone is like that.

It wasn't meant to be judgmental. We began this endeavor assuming the reverse would be true. What we found was that the children whose parents are very involved with the church, and whose moms stay home, happen to exhibit the worst behaviours in a group setting. Their social skills are behind the others. They want ALL the attention, do NOT want to share, DEMAND the floor, and act out inappropriately. I find it amusing if nothing else. Plus, in our church the prevailing mindset is moms need to stay home. My wife is a career woman. We have a 3 year-old in daycare. He and his peers are much easier to teach and instruct than the children with stay at home moms. Just an observation, not a judgment.
