Branda does not have a cell phone just for that reason you mentioned above! She is working now and I feel if she wants one, then she can go out and buy it and pay for the up keep.
If you hand your kids a silver platter, there going to expect the silver on top of it. I feel we have to draw the line somewhere.
My parents did not buy me my 1st car, they told me that if they did, and I was in a accident, then they would feel guilty, mom always said if I buy you a car, then I mise well buy the grave plot. I will not buy my kids a car, they have to earn it, if they pay for it, then it means more to them, if we just hand it to them, they could careless, they feel, hey, if this breaks, mom will just buy us a new one!
My brother has a 4 year old daughter and this kid have EVERYTHING! and I'm not exaggerating! You walk into her room and her walls are wall to wall with toys, her closet is jammed packed with toys. Every time they go somewhere she gets a new toy. What are they teaching her?

yes, i know what you mean, when i take the computer and cell away it kills her. i was actually thinking about taking free texting unlimited texting off her phone until she can show me respect. i mean what's with kids these day, she hardly talks on the phone....its all about texting. she had 1645 text last month. |
