Sorry to be so impatient, but I found her to be a very poor writer who has difficulty getting to the point concisely, and gave up on the article about halfway through, marshmallow or no marshmallow.
Basically, French parents think children shouldn’t be treated as the center of the universe and that parents should teach them firm boundaries.

Really nice article, really liked it. Read mine also here

Mitt Romney is very good with pets, so I bet he would be good with his 310 million American children.

Either way, if it proves out that the French are better at raising kids than the U.S., then I have to go with the French.
America does suck, after all, so I wouldn’t doubt it.
