WOW!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: I'm truly sorry that you had to go thru that. I was mad when I read the post, then I just down right angry when I saw the pictures. Plain and simple those people knew what their boys are capable of doing. I would definitely send them a bill on the clean up. |
All I can say is WOW. :eek: :eek: I can't believe 2 boys that age would be so destructive AND get away with it. I'd be really really upset too - especially what they did to the fish tank amd that poor fish- :( I'm with everyone else - my boys NEVER acted like that - they were raised to respect peoples homes and I can remember people always telling me how polite/well mannered they were etc - IF I were in someones home I'd be checking my kids ALL the time just because - Mandee - I would go ballistic too - The thing you missed though was telling them BEFORE they left to clean up their horrible disrespectful mess and I would DEF tell that woman what they did to your fish tank - not to mention - they were sadistic What the H*ll is wrong with people these days - - so many people just don't teach their kids common manners - those kids are out of control but it's totally the parents fault. poor girl - I'll say this - you did good NOT calling and waiting to calm down |
I can't wait to see what they have to say. Just remember - NO expectations. There's no telling what they'll be like - they may be offended, contrite, appauled. It'll be interesting. |
Mandee, iread this this morning and couldnt believe it... and those pics OMG!!! my mom would have killed us if we ever did that to someones house!!... i hope these people realize what their kids are like, but like the above poster said, don't have high expectations for these ppl... good luck though!! |
The problem is that the parents were laughing and not correcting this behavior. If I made a mess and acted like that you can bet I would get in so much trouble. My parents wouldn't let me leave unless I made that room spotless. I can't believe they allowed their kids behave that way.:mad: |
Okay - I would have been in soooooooooooooo much trouble if I EVER even thought about doing that to my own house and especially someone else's house! I wouldn't have been able to sit for at least a month! I can't believe some parents... they just let their kids do whatever and laugh about it. I wonder what their house looks like? |

You poor thing. I would have asked them to leave once they went wandering thru the house! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!:angry: I do not blame you for being angry! Quote:
I would have watched while they AND their mom cleaned that mess up. This is disgraceful!!! ************ ************** ********* When my daughter was little people always told me how they would love to have her back, because the place was left cleaner than it was before she was there.:smile: And your poor fish! DOUBLE Grrrrrrr!!!!:angry::angry: |
Ppl just don't make their kids mind anymore! Once when I took my son to day care and I picked him up I was walking down the hall and this lady was telling her son he could not have a drink... she just kept argueing w/ him and he would not take no for an answer... when my son and I walked by the machine he ask for a drink and I said no and we kept walking and I heard the lady tell her son... see how that little boy minds his mother, why can't you do that... i couldn't believe it... just like we do with our dogs we have to let our kids know who is alpha... |
WOW!!! Mandee those kids are brats:eek: :eek: I know I will get flack for saying this, but I do not enjoy being around children:( I LOVE my children but I get very irritated being around other peoples kids for this exact reason:( So many people think their kids are angles when in reality they are BRATS!!! And how do you tell someone "I cant stand your kid he/she is a brat" so I just stay away:( |

this let her know that her kids ARE brats....but it is HER fault LOL |
Mandee ~ This sounds a lot like a family horror story regarding a cousin we rarely see, and one of my sisters. The cousin invited herself over "for a visit" (turned into several days). My bil finally told my sister, "I don't care if they are family, you get rid of them, or I will". By this time, cousin had discovered their brakes were bad on their car. When sister asked them to go, cousin brought up the brakes. "We can't drive with no brakes!" To that, sis responds: "Drive real slow". LOL Then, prayed them all the way home. There were some pretty hurt feelings over that one for many years. Even my mother couldn't believe sis sent her cousin away with no brakes in the car!! But...the things the kids did, and her husband! :eek: :eek: IF these people invite themselves over again, maybe you can sweetly say something like: "Perhaps when the boys grow up a bit, and learn to behave in civilized company." They need not know you're actually thinking: "sure....when pigs fly". :) |
I can't believe this. Not only did these people take advantage of your good nature by inviting themselves, the kids trashed your house on top of it all. They didn't give two hoots about your feelings and your property, I wouldn't give two hoots about theirs. They need to be told. Hope you are feeling o.k. from all this unnecessary clean up. I know a little bit about how you feel, as when I was a child, friend's of my parents came to visit with their brat daughter, she high tailed it upstairs into my bedroom, ripped the heads off of all my dolls, tore up all my paper dolls, spilled ink all over the place, painted my white dresser with nail polish, I could go on and on.I wasn't home at the time, but when I did come home, I cried for days. Don't let them get away with this. Janice |
OMG Mandee!! How horrible! And with your pregnancy, you don't need the added stress this caused you! So glad you wrote the email - even if you get no response, at least you got things "off your chest". I'm a mother to 2 boys and whenever we went over to friends homes, I ALWAYS made mine clean up before leaving. At first they whined and complained but I explained that they helped make the mess, they were going to help clean it up! Didn't take long before all I had to do was tell them we were getting ready to go and to clean up - and they did. And in our home, all toys, books, movies, etc. had to be picked up and put back on shelves or in toy bins before bedtime - that was the rule! It all comes down to parenting and how one teaches their children respect in their own home. If they don't respect their own stuff, how can anyone expect them to respect other peoples things? Clearly, they have no respect for their own house to show such utter DISRESPECT in yours!! No matter the response (or lack of) from the mother, feel better knowing you spoke your peace! Suzi |
I am getting so ansy waiting for their reply! |
