> “a kind of back and forth, pushing the boundaries to figure out where the lines sit” I noticed the same change related to Parenting Etiquette. I came from a not-so-strict family in the 80s and 90s, and I recall as a kid several small things, such as being on time for dinner, not screaming in the supermarket, never touching anything in other people's houses, asking permission for almost everything, and so on. And this was more or less the unwritten law in my demographic. At a very young age, it was almost like we knew that we could or not, and in the latter case, we could just ask an adult. Fast forward: being a parent myself, I found myself struggling a lot with other parents who did not stimulate some kind of etiquette and how some kids are being softly excluded or slightly ostracized without knowing it. One example is aggressiveness and hitting other kids. I participate in a circle of parents (approximately . 5 families, 13 kids, more or less in the same age). One of those kids started to be more aggressive, even with the toddlers and most of the parents did not want to say anything to the kid and for his parents. One week later, we went to another gathering and my partner mentioned that one of the families were not invited due to its kid.
