Sven's Guide to Effective Parenting

1. Clearly distinguish between personal relationships and professional relationships.

2. Sparingly and cautiously disclose information, experience, and advice to offspring about the former, trusting that they will pay close attention to your example and the wisdom harshly earned and do the opposite.

3. Freely and candidly disclose information, experience, and advice to offspring about the latter, trusting that they will have absolutely no interest in your boring, petty, anachronistic issues and do the opposite.
