How is the way you raise your own children different from the way you were raised? What are some things you decided NOT to do?

I think my mother was a reasonably good mom most of the time. However, I made some mental notes during my childhood of ineffective or detrimental things I would NEVER repeat when raising my own children. And I hope that they do the same, so that with each generation we become better and better parents. I am wondering how others have implemented this idea (if at all)? via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2uotVFq
