Power Relations

Power relations ? I guessed there is a mixed between commanding and discussing that my parents practice.

There are times when forcing have to be execute in order to get things done right, although I may hate that particular matter, it may very well just be the best choice for me. Examples are that parents would not give a choice to their children as to what time they wants to be in bed. My parents, especially my dad forces us on lots of things, but as i grew up the subject of matter slowly grew lesser and lesser as it may well already become a part of me.

On the other hand, discussion between parents and children before making a choice onto the child is as important too. Some matters just can't be forced onto the child or it may very well caused some negative impacts. Examples are that extra course or activities the child took up, the child should have the right to choose what they like to pick up and learn through them, forcing another undesired choice onto them make them sick of it as they have no interest in them at all.

My parents very well respects my decisions in most cases. They have also implant into me morale values and what I should and should not do through the practice of authoritarian parenting from young. Now I would follow those rules meant for me as a child even though i have already grow up, just because I was lead to follow the rules right when i was growing up as a kid.
