These types of kids boggle my mind...I know without a doubt it starts as you bring them through the door from the hosptial..they have no respect or healthy fear of authority...and it is worse as the grow up and go out in the world.

I'm not a parent yet, so I don't know what I would've done.

But I do know what my mom would have done with me if I'd done that at that age... I'd have probably been slapped across the face for spitting at her. That is one thing my mom finds SUPER disrepectful. In my house I was raised you don't put your feet on ppl and you don't spit at them. Oh yea.. and you don't point either.

A spanking would have worked for me, they always did. Personally I think more kids today need a spanking every now and then.

A child must learn respect..and receive respect back. You parent 24/7..even when you are worn out and too tired to take a breath...but you follow through with any threat and you parent.

Example..my two girls were 3 yrs a part...they were really good girls, but we had problems from time to time...once it was when they acted up in the store while I tried to grocery shop etc.

When they were 4 and 7 yrs I took them to the grocery...a fight started, then they wanted me to by junk, toys etc..they were warned twice to stop and if I had to warn again, they would go home...they started another "poking at each other" fight...I stopped shopping, put them in the car, drove to the curb of my house and told them to GET OUT!!! Bill was home.

When I got home I had two very sorry, apologzing girls...but I did not give in and take them with me the next time...I told them I was not conveniced they would behave...another week of no shopping with mom seemed to really sink in...the 7 yr old wrote a note promising they would be good in the store and the 4 yr old signed it...

I took them that week and had perfect angels the rest of the years I shopped with them...except one time when Jodi set off a fire alarm in Pebbles Dept store, but I understood the temptation of "DO NOT TOUCH"...when you are 6 yrs old.

This is a long way of saying..set rules and limits.and follow through.

My daughters are adults now...last week when the older came for a visit we went to Ruby Tuesday's and a kid of about 8 told his mom to shut up in a loud voice..Jodi turned to her sister and said.."if we did that Mom would walked out and left us sitting here"...and she was right.
When she was 4..she laid on the floor of the A&P and had a fit...I moved to the next aisle and let her have her fit...she stopped right away without me as her audience...

i too believe in spanking...i think maybe that is the reason why society now has all these disobedient crazy kids/maniac running around because parents are no longer allowed to spank their child with getting srs involved!

This is The Parents Bill of Rights (I love this!!):

My son came home from school one day,
with a smirk upon his face.
He decided he was smart enough,

to put me in my place.

"Guess what I learned in Civics Two,
that's taught by Mr. Wright?
It's all about the laws today,
The 'Children's Bill of Rights.'

It says I need not clean my room,
don't have to cut my hair
No one can tell me what to think,
or speak, or what to wear.

I have freedom from religion,
and regardless what you say,
I don't have to bow my head,
and I sure don't have to pray.

I can wear earrings if I want,
and pierce my tongue & nose.
I can read & watch just what I like,
get tattoos from head to toe.

And if you ever spank me,
I'll charge you with a crime.
I'll back up all my charges,
with the marks on my behind.

Don't you ever touch me,
my body's only for my use,
not for your hugs and kisses,
that's just more child abuse.

Don't preach about your morals,
like your Mama did to you.
That's nothing more than mind control,
And it's illegal too!

Mom, I have these children's rights,
so you can't influence me,
or I'll call Children's Services Division,
better known
as "C.S.D."

Mom's Reply and Thoughts


Of course my first instinct was
to toss him out the door.
But the chance to teach him a lesson
made me think a little more.

I mulled it over carefully,
I couldn't let this go.
A smile crept upon my face,
he's messing with a pro.

Next day I took him shopping
at the local Goodwill Store..
I told him, "Pick out all you want,
there's shirts & pants galore.

I've called and checked with C.S.D .
who said they didn't care
if I bought you K-Mart shoes
instead of Nike Airs.

I've canceled that appointment
to take your driver's test.
The C.S.D. is unconcerned
so I'll decide what's best."

I said "No time to stop and eat,
or pick up stuff to munch.
And tomorrow you can start to learn
to make your own sack lunch.

Just save the raging appetite,
and wait till dinner time.
We're having liver and onions,
a favorite dish of mine."

He asked "Can I please rent a movie,
to watch on my VCR?"
"Sorry, but I sold your TV,
for new tires on my car.

I also rented! out your room,
you'll take the couch instead.
The C.S.D. requires
just a roof over your head.

Your clothing won't be trendy now,
I'll choose what we eat.
That allowance that you used to get,
will buy me something neat.

I'm selling off your jet ski,
dirt-bike & roller blades.
Check out the 'Parents Bill of Rights',
It's in effect today!

Hey hot shot, are you crying,
Why are you on your knees?
Are you asking God to help you out,
instead of C.S.D..?"

We are told not to stoop to their level..but I remember biting my mother one time on the neck while she was driving...remember we had no car seats or belts.. I was standing behind her...my mother stopped the car and bit me in the same place..I never bit her again..

Jodi started biting her sister at the age of 3..I tried to be a modern day parent, talk to her, no dessert etc....nothing worked..so I told her the next time she bit Melisa, her sister was going to bite her in the same place and just as hard..of course she did not believe me and bit her hand again..I held Jodi's hand and told Melisa to bite it..Jodi screams.."that really hurts"..and she never bit her again...
