Sorry, I don’t have time to read 10 pages

My little hellion and I struck a deal last week, each day he can receive up to 3 warnings, after he’s reached the 3rd warning one of the presents from under the tree will be taken and donated to one of the local toy drives. So far we haven’t gotten past the second warning in any given day.

Unosmom... watch "Nanny 911" every week. Seriously. Sometimes it helps to watch the parenting techniques of others. It could be an eye opener as to the little things you could do that would make it better for a better home environment for everyone. I think it's Wednesday's at 9 p.m. on Fox. :yay:

:yeahthat: I've watched one or two episodes of this and it makes me feel like a great parent. I've been able to incorporate one or two of the little nanny tricks as well; and for my problem child its starting to work.


Even better then when I tell them that one day Ebay will make a section for bad little boys, and then they are going to be sorry.

No such thing as 'try' you either do it all the way or you just don't do it at all.

Gee, thanks BL. That was very "Yoda" of you! "There is no try, only do, or do not."

Try to remember your own advice on this in a few years. :lol:

The ARC wants nothing for the oldest, but wants $34 per hour per extra child. Now you tell me what am I to do?

Here's what ya do..... Call the ARC have Respite Care come in for the oldest. Hire a teen for $5.00 an hour to babysit the other two.

All Mom's have been there. If you don't take care of yourself, the point will come where you are unable to take care of them.

Santa knows how to make kids listen

As the Christmas season draws nigh, foretelling the end of over a full month of Commercial Christmas, there is a special urgency in the spirits of children as they visit toy stores and toy departments all over the country.

It was with particular urgency that little Wilbert dragged his mother to the toy department in a big Los Angeles department store. Mother quickly steered Wilbert into the line of children waiting to talk to Santa, but Wilbert was far more interested in the hobby horse.

As soon as his mother relaxed her vigilance for a moment, Wilbert vanished from the Santa Queue and began rocking back and forth on the hobby horse. His mother noticed his absence, and after a quick, frantic search, spotted him on the horse. She let him rock for a few minutes, then told him it was time to get off. Wilbert ignored her. She began to beg; Wilbert paid no attention. She began to make promises of sugarplums, etc., if only Wilbert would get off the hobby horse. He stuck his nasty little tongue out at her.

Then Santa himself, who had been watching this little family drama out of the corner of his eye, stepped over and said to Wilbert's mother, "Perhaps I can persuade your son to cooperate."

"I doubt that," said the mother, "but you're welcome to try."

Santa, with a big smile, whispered quietly into Wilbert's ear.

Wilbert's eyes grew very large, he quickly slid off the horse and took his mother's hand. Together, with no fuss, they left the store.

As they drove home, Mama asked Wilbert what Santa had whispered to him. Wilbert was silent. Mama began offering bribes (toys and German Chocolate cake) if Wilbert would only tell Mama what Santa's words were. Wilbert turned pale and wouldn't utter a word.

What had Santa said? Wilbert's mother was determined to find out. She had never been able to get the kid to obey that easily, and decided it was worth a great deal of effort on her part to discover what magic Santa Claus had used on Wilbert.

She continued to bribe him with a soft voice and much cajolery, and Wilbert's stubborn streak finally faded. What did Santa say?

Wilbert now answered: "He said, 'Listen, you little son of a b!tch, if you don't climb your a$$ the h3ll down off that horse right this second, I'm going to beat the heck out of you!' "
