It's not a surprise that women were most aware of the condom and birth control pills, but the lack of awareness of IUDs and, in particular, implants was definitely surprising, i guess I just assumed that most women have at least heard of these methods, but it seems like they really haven't.

When we set those limits and we set those caps, then decisions are up to them, and they're making the tradeoffs, and they're beginning to understand the concept of limits, and once there are limits and they are pretty carefully enforced, it's pretty hard for a kid to end up spoiled if those are the constraints that they are living under.

I feel like my children are never satisfied and happy with what they have, so that's really, I think, that's my issue.

Laura Simms

The question that I would ask every parent to think about is how can I set limits for my child, whether it's a 6-year-old or a 12-year-old or an 18-year-old, and these might even be artificial limits, but how can I set limits such that my child will have the maximum amount of control over these intense material desires that many of them have ?

What I want every parent is not to ever be in a situation where they're the ones answering that question, they should be in a situation where the kids are finding ways to answer those questions for themselves.

In my house, it was 'Fussing gets you nothing,' so if [my kids] started to fuss about something, I would say, 'What does fussing get you?' And they would say, 'Nothing,' and then they would stop because it triggered them to say, 'Oh, yeah, I'm supposed to do X.'.
