Americans that grew up with parental rules POLL
Parenting has always generated diverging opinions among Americans, but the past several decades have seen a larger cultural shift in guidelines and recommendations, with many parents opting for a more lenient parenting style. In a recent survey, YouGov asked Americans to reflect on their experience growing up with parental rules, and — where applicable — breaking those rules.
More than one-third of Americans (38%) say that their parents were somewhat or much stricter when it came to rules compared to parents of other children their age at the time.
Among Americans who say their parents were stricter than other children’s, two-thirds (66%) say that was a good thing.
Most Americans say they were less likely to break rules compared to other children their age.
