What were the main household rules when you were growing up? What are the rules in your own house now?
Brought to you by the movie Georgia Rule.
Being an only child for the first nine years of my life, rules weren't really an issue with us. I just kind of did what I wanted, and if it was wrong I'd hear about it. Maybe then it became an "unspoken rule." I don't know why that's in quotes.
There were some loose rules:
- No watching "You Can't Do That on Television"
- No boys upstairs, ever.
- You don't have to eat it all, but at least drink the glass of milk.
- Shirts couldn't be so high, or pants so low, as to show stomach.
