I am not sure that it explains it. Some people just can't say no, or they have different expectations for their kids. We have good friends with kids the same age as ours. The dad will not and has not ever said no to either kid. They even make their own bed times. They are 6 and 3 and it has been that way since day one. Kid wakes up at midnight and parents will sit up til 3am while the kid watches tv until they fall back to sleep. One time at our place, the older kid (3 at the time) had the salt shaker in her mouth. Dad would not take it away or even let mom tell her to take it out of her mouth. Next day we realized the kid went home with our salt shaker. Pretty sure that marriage is not cut out for the long hall
