Misbehaving children seems to be an epidemic lately. You see all of these little bratty turds who are running their parents. They are the boss. They are the deciding factor on everything in their household. You, as a parent (or caregiver) is letting them behave that way.
I see kids running amok everywhere; stores, restaurants, etc. The worst part about it is, I do NOT see their parent(s) making even the slightest attempt to control their child(ren). They are just letting them scream and throw alfredo noodles in another Olive Garden customer’s hair. Seriously though… your kid throws anything at me and I’m gonna beat YOUR @$$…
To spank or not to spank… SPANK THEM! You don’t have to beat your precious little angel, but a nice firm pop to the heiny or hand and they should (hopefully) see that you mean business. However, I do not believe in this kind of discipline in public. Take that kind of punishment to the bathroom if you have to. If you discipline your child in your own home, all it should take is a threat outside of the house.
I think some people are too afraid of DCF / CPS. Every parent should fear the potential removal of your child from your home, of course. But don’t be so afraid someone is gonna swoop in and take your kid away that you fear to say “NO”!
You are the parent, you make the rules. Control your little turds, people. Don’t let them control you.
