Ever feel like a bad influence?

Topics: kids, sibling rivalry, strange

I am very outspoken and often blunt. It appears that I have taught this trait to my offspring. They have no fear of standing up for themselves nor do they have any issue with not censoring things before telling me... and still somehow based on this little toddler fight www.arseniccookies.com/2009/10/28/toddler-fight/ I feel like I am probably slipping in my parenting. What do you think, bad influence or unavoidable sibling rivalry?

    it's actually just a funny little exchange between a 2 and 4 year old, but still not sure if it's due to being a bad influence of sibling rivalry

    I'm a better influence than some people, but also probably worse than some.

    I think the uncensored part is great, especially around you. In social situations they'll probably have to tone it down a bit. And I think it's great they're independent and can stand up for themselves.
