My child's not been behaving like some sort of mid-twentieth-century Puritain, but that Lehman bloke over at Empowering Parents said I should just discipline her and totally ignore the underlying issues.

Like childcare but for your parents: Sitting around all day with your parents who came visiting you.
If you're at uni and having to explain to them why you don't have a girlfriend, why you don't have good grades, why you don't have a part-time job.
And if you're married already you send the day helping your dad with his garden and your mom in the kitchen why avoid the question "So why don't you have kids yet?"
