Hi Alise, great piece. My wife Brandee &amp; I believe in respecting our kids and being "un exemple" (they're in french immersion). We both grew up in homes where we revered our parents and showed respect in all situations, regardless of our personal opinions and feelings. We chose teach the concept of honor in a way closer to that of Jesus, honoring them first, instilling the principles and watching them return to us as they get the idea for themselves.

As far as the public shaming thing - I've been hoping it's just a stunt - because that's just wrong, and a perfect way to push your child to never want to trust you again.
