Walls Parenting

The Walls family is extremely different, yet similar, to other families in the United States and the world. Rex and Rose Mary Walls are an interesting set of parents, to put it lightly. They allow for their kids to run around and take care of themselves, barely paying attention to them. Jeannette, Brian, and Lori all became independent from their parents and other people. While the youngest Walls child, Maureen, never really became independant. Maureen depended on her neighbors and friends, but that was okay because she was just a kid. Maureen depending on other people did not become a problem until she was an adult, and could not do anything for herself. I think that moving around a lot actually helped them in life, even though it was not the best situations that they lived in.While both Rex and Rose Mary had their flaws, allowing their children to be independant wasn't such a bad thing. While they could have provided a better living environment for their kids, they did make some good decisions with them. Rex and Rose Mary also had some crazy views on living in the city and eating processed foods, but at least, from what I read, they tried their best to raise and teach their children.
