| I really don't know what to say to this. The whole spanking thing, I never used it as I didn't feel it was an adequate form of discipline for my child. I don't remember any of my friends getting spanked as a child either but I guess to each his own ![]() Your neice on the other hand should have been yanked out of that store by her ear or hair, sat her azz in the car and your sister should have finished getting what she went into the store to get. Then sent to her room where your sister should have taken EVERYTHING fun out, tv, phone, internet, stereo, and games, for a week. Looks like Mommy's Little Monster is testing her boundaries, my son does this about every 3 to 6 months. I dread pre-teen years and I dread pre-teen girls more. |

| I think the popular mistake, is to befriend your children... The damage is done. Your sister is going to need to start over. If that means whipping some tail, so be it! These are serious hellions in the making. Keep your children far away. Maybe that will motivate Sis.

THE DEVIL!!! lol Seriously, probably the parents. If your brother-in-law did nothing as far as discipline, then thats the way it goes. The boy will be a menace and reek havoc on them and the rest of society. The girl needs a wet dishcloth right across the mouth. Her restriction should have started right then!!! I'm all for spanking. I think parents of today read too much crap into (Oh you shouldn't spank your child because they will have mental problems and be completely damaged for life) or some other BS that they feed people. I'm not saying beat the kid, but few wacks on the ole arse isn't going to kill them and then take away their stuff. Let them know your not playing around. Thats why kids have disrespect.

The question you shold be asking is" WTF is with parents these days". Tell you sister she and her spawn are a bad influnce on your family and you don't feel that you should associate with her any more. | |

| You already answered that question: parents who don't straighten them out and make them behave. Quote:

| the problem is all of these so called "smart well educated" people who have no children are telling you to be a friend, respect your children, never say no cause it will cause them damage, give them a 50.00 allowance every week, let them have phones,credit cards, go out with their friends. And for god sake what ever your do don't ever correct your child by cracking there butt or slapping them in the mouth. How many on this forum are grownups and had their Mom or Dad crack them on the butt or tapped in the mouth for backtalk? I can bet about at least 85% did. I also bet you didn't talk to your mother or father that way. You didn't get paid to do the things you are just plain old suppose to do. You got school clothes once a year and new shoes once or maybe twice a year. You didn't dare pick up the telephone in the house connected to the wall without asking and if you were lucky enough you could talk 10 minutes. You ate what was put in front of you and you had to clean the table and wash and dry the dishes every night. You know what? Look at most of us know...We are fine hard working people. Who do alot for our communities and we are not going to therapy either. Now, there is a difference between correction of children and abuse... You don't have to beat some poor little child half to death. I will be the first person to stand against an abuser but, people need to be able to correct their children. You ask why these kids act the way they do in public, in the schools and at home. It is because these "smart people" have taken all parents rights to correct their children. Look how disrespectful they act at school. Why? Give parents back their right to parent their children and let the schools and the law back up the parents instead of throwing the parent under the bus... Again, I know there has to be some protection in place for some children and I am all for that. But, just use common sense. Atrusomder you keep on loving your children enought to correct them when it is needed and love them just as much. Someday they will thank you. When you go to some state prison to visit your sisters children just remember when you tried to help them and just pray for them... |
