The Anti-Rule

Psychologists argue that for mental health it's far better for children to be raised in a conservative home than a progressive home, because children freak out when there isn't structure, boundaries, rules, law, order./nMargaret Gunther, wife, mother, and Anglican priests, and also a beautiful writer in her little book on the rule of life, says it so very well, quote, a good rule can actually set us free to be our true and best selves./nIt is a working document, a kind of spiritual budget, I like that, not carved in stone, but subject to regular review and revision./nIt should support us, but never constrict us, and there's that healthy balance.
