Superb!! Great parenting Kelly & Mark.. this is what makes respectful and mentally stable children who will be be great parents and role models themselves one day. Great family !

[@gloriagarguena1802]

Kelly you are an amazing mother and a human being. It's awesome you are old fashion in raising your kids. It's a different generation and your guidance is well needed. you are very good example, keep it up!!

[@tewsplace]

That's how you bring up respectful and healthy children..The rest of us should take note..

Your awesome Kelly!! I didn't know anyone was strict like I am. You have to be more these days everything is getting so bad so tightening the reins is always good when your following your instincts as a mother tell you to!!

[@christinegibbs8796]

I raised my daughter very much like this. However l did not have the cell phones to deal with. My daughter is a great, responsible, reliable, kind and giving person today. Yayyy

[@123rosebuds]

It is so refreshing to see boundaries in a family which will provide security, structure, etc.

[@dorothyfeatherstone3017]

Good job Kelly and mark now days you must know all the time where your kids are and what they are doing. Cell phones are the worst invention no one talks anymore everyone has a phone in their hands it's the kids lifeline.they can't even sit at a dinner table without that phone . Keep up the good work Kelly.

[@peggybouley9730]

You Go Mom! Your one of the lucky one's to have your children abide by your rules. I knew there was a reason I loved you since All My Children.

[@kevincarter103]

I agree 100% with everything I saw in this video about parenting. I raised my two beautiful children very similar to this except when it came to cell phones, I realized the troubles I would have if I gave young kids cell phones so, I waited until they were about 17 years old to let them have cell phones and I spent the next year or until they moved out on their own teaching them how to manage their cell phones. They are now 25 and 26 yrs old and have been very respectful, well mannered, responsible and successful managing their money, phones and lives. I'm very proud of them both!

[@javiruiz4405]

I agree 100% my mom was exactly the same raising us! Unfortunately she passed away when I was a teenager, but I thought my younger siblings the same as my mother did. It's about discipline. I actually had the pleasure to meet Kelly Ripa at a restaurant years ago with all her family and they where very polite! She was was super nice. In that same restaurant I met Barbara Walters and she was the opposite.

[@wendybird5104]

Good for you Kelly.... I wish more parents believed in parenting ... and not being their child’s friend.

[@donnaarmstrong9029]

i definitely do agree with you.

[@alakranzitagalarza2157]

I am both to my kids I'm a mother and a friend it doesn't have to be one or the other

[@debbiepotter4592]

When they are young you are their parent first. Wow. That’s the problem with kids nowadays

[@B.A.B.G.]

Well, I believe in both. You just need to know when what applies. That way your child will trust you above others, and your influence is greater than that of a parent alone. However, these days we need more parenting since being a friend has been overused.

[@bobbihealy9974]

Kelly is a great Mom, this is inspiring, more people need to use these rules raising their children. This was how we were raise. Children should learn respect.

[@msjw1997]

I think it's amazing that Kelly is a real mom, not a Star mom who is to busy to parent they're children well. Good for your, Kelly. I agree that you have to be mom first, but you should also be a friend to your children. Children will listen and share so much better if they feel close to their parents. I know it's not want, especially since society doesn't support parents, but you can be both a parent and a friend to your children.

[@brandoncastro2441]

I agree with Kelly in almost to a certain Extant. ur right our kids are not our friends. but is so important that Dad and mom are working together. kids need to see it as partnership with the parents not just one side. When the children get older they need to learn and understand that mom and dad were working together. Not just mom, Wife has the last word? NO. is a team work. men... you have to step up into the plate not let mom do everything is ur job too.

They work together. That's why Mark is ALSO strict. He just has a habit of being the kind of parent who offers punishments not likely to be fulfilled. Lol. However, they still respect him and stop fighting when he says to. Maybe I get it more because I've seen hers and Mark's comments over the years on how they deal with their children.

[@estherstrategicadvisor749]

Good point but she's Italian American whose parents speak English as their FIRST language, while Mark was not born in America so they NEED Spanish to communicate with HIS side of the family.
