In a case like that… if these two people are surrounded by unruly children… there is bound to be some sort of friction…

So, if people realize that the source of friction is caused by different personal rules… and not a right or wrong situation, they could either discuss those rules… or simply decide which is preferable… peace or upholding a personal rule…

Excellent advice, Shamou. You are so right.
