it has been repeatedly discovered that chidlren, regardless of age, need a clear idea of what the rules entail, and crave stability (Charles, 2005). According to Strocschien et al., (2008), the most effective parenting style is that which is characterized by emotional support with firm boundaries. Rules and norms are an expected way of social living. They are predictable and part of our lives, and, therefore, we rarely stop to question their roots. We accept them as part of our routine, as demonstrative of our progressiveness as a nation, and are comfortable in their security. When children don't have boundaries, their lives take a much different turn than parents ever plan. Even if parents don't start out setting boundaries for children, it is never too late to start. The older the child the harder it gets, but the importance of setting boundaries never declines. Setting boundaries for children is important for all who come into contact with them from educators to child care givers to parents, of course, themselves. And setting boundaries needs to be accompanied with positive reinforcement for it to be most effective.
