Parental Differences

I am sure many parents face a simular issue, so recently there has been conflict in regards on how to raise our children. We were raised very different and that is where the difference comes into play. Of course you may say that boys will be boys but the horse play really needs to stop, Kristian is getting to the age where he takes every action and runs with it so if he see's it at home assume he will do it to a poor child in the playground at school. How can you differenciate the difference for what is okay to do at home and at school? Can you? I don't think so, but who am I??? I am the one that gets the call mid afternoon telling me that Kristian tackled someone in the playground. So what am I suppose to tell the teacher, please call John he is the one that plays rough with him...

So this is a pretty sore subject at home as when I tell John HOW to play with Kristian he gets really offensive and says I know how to raise a child! What did you take a course, or better yet are teaching him what you were taught because if that is the case then there is no hope for my poor children. I recall making mention that he was raised by a pack of wolves, if not that is how I refer to his family. So I guess my question is, what is the best way to talk to him about improving his parental skills and that we are not all perfect but he should try different methods of interaction.
