Who was/is the disciplinarian and who was/is the softie? or were they both strict? or both softies?!
And how does/did it effect your relationship with each parent? Did it make you less closer to the strict parent for example?
If you have kids, which parent are you? And for those without kids but hoping for them one day, which one do you think you would be?
**both my ammi and abba were very kind and loving to all of us...none of us ever got any spanking. i lost my ammi when i was only 9 and abba when i was 15...but, i've fond memories of then and i MISS them EQUALLY everyday! Allah unkii maGhfirat farmaaye aur unko jannat ul firdaus ke aalaa tareen maqaam pe faa'iz kare...aamee
not married as of yet, fortunately or unfortunately! :D

But yeah, she was/is/will always be the disciplinarian, the stricter one… dad speaks up only when he needs to (very very rarely) and it doesn’t make us less closer to either one.
Both my parents are disciplinarians. But yet they are both softies in their own way. My relationship with my parents is ideal, i can talk about anything and everything with both of them. ( I just have to make sure, i pick the right words =D )
Ummmm... I guess both my mom and dad equally strict. Dad was strict in the sense that his anger was very limited with one sentence SUPER daaant. That was enough for us to become bandey de puttar instantly :p. Mom's daaant is way tooo long and continue for the whole day :p So we consider mom more strict.
