She's a good mom. Of course it benefits my child. Even buying clothes for my ex (which I do) benefits my child. Why? Because if she had to work to purchase her own clothes it would take away time from him. The two of us may not agree on many things, but we agree on how to raise him. For example, we don't raise our voice to him and don't spank him. Doing those things teaches that violence is the way to deal with disagreements. We also don't use words like "Because I said so". Why? How would you react if you had a boss who said that to YOU? Children are people too, with the same emotions as adults. We talk to him and reason with him just as we'd expect to be treated by others. And it works.
Uh oh... here I go getting started on my parenting ideas... sometimes I can't stop. There are so many clueless parents out there...
