Child rearing 101 by Dr. Grouper:
Spiderwoman...a good stiff libation from time to time is theraputic, and should be administered at times of undue stress.
Scotts...hit the nail on the head. You will be the hero and should be ready to absorb ALL the stories of the day and be supportive. I.E.....allways better with Mom and Dad.
Tizzo....like you need a reason to get all liquored up.
dogfaceman....chill and learn to capitalize.
Aquaknight...good to see you understand the rules.
Cowfishrule...AWSOME taste in Vodka my friend.
El Guapo...who the heck do you think your kidding???
Summary;
Love them younguns.
Monk...never take "no" as an answer. Kids need to understand that they are just that...kids. Doesn't mean you have to beat them (though sometimes necessary) but allthough it sounds crude....it's almost like raising Dogs or any other pet/animal. They truly need to understand and respect who is the Alpha individual. Words with conviction and consistency can do wonders.
I hear that! I have many friends and family who let the kids run the damn house! That crap won't happen in my house. Children need some form of dicipline. I have a 19 year old daughter and a 12 year old son. They both know how to behave in public. You got to start when they are young. It is too late when they are older then they think they rule!
