Not that I condone such behavior, but I understand.
I was in line picking up dinner today and I heard a dad telling that to his 11 year old daughter in line. That's super parenting there.

One time in the library a mom screamed at her crying toddler, "Shut the up, you are embarrassing me you are so loud."

You obviously haven't heard me at the drop off at my kids' schools.
My aunt and uncle are both pretty small, and it comes of no surprise that their two kids are also very short for their age. But as if being in the bottom 5-10% in height and weight isn't bad enough, they are also ADD and ADHD (respectively). They take medicine for their ADHD, which if you know anything about side effects of this stuff, you know that it stunts your growth.
Enough said.
I was at the grocery store with my daughter and she was seriously acting up ... I had asked her to help me unload the stuff so she started throwing it onto the conveyer thingy, half of the stuff landing on the other side by the cashier. After about 5 times of very nicely (ie. quietly, between clenched teeth) to stop it, I told her a little too loudly to knock it the off or I'd beat her ass in front of God and everyone.
So she stomps off, and I hear this weird lady run after her ... "Oh, it's okay sweetheart...it wasn't your fault..."
WTF?
It happens...anyone who tells you differently either has the patience of Mother Theresa or is lying like a mofo.
Chris & I took 4 kids to the grocery store one time...and even he had to remove himself from the situation before he unloaded, and he does have the patience of Mother Theresa.![]()

What happened to the day where you would see a kid getting his ass whooped in the grocery store?
Good times, Good times.![]()
I'll let you know the next time we go....![]()

BRING BACK CORPORAL PUNISHMENT! Spare the rod and spoil the child.
My children are spoiled...that's why I have to use the rod.![]()
Going to the grocery store with your kids is pure ! If I take one of them, they're fine. But the both of them together is excruciating. Why is the grocery store the place they decide to punch each other?
And if you bought a bag of smashed chips, I apologize. You have my 10 year old to thank.
Kids can be s when they go to the any store.
But even kids pale in comparison to adults that throw fits at stores.
You're gonna wear that boy out SW.
Okay, paid up or not..... you're a hole for calling kids s![]()
What do you expect.
Class A face.
Not suprising.
Kids 10 years from now are gonna show how ed up their hippie parents were.
TPark, do yourself a favor and pick up one of Nigella Lawson's cookbooks, your girl won't be disappointed.
A couple of Quotes of the Day have come from my dad, like:
Mom: I tried to talk to you at 3 this morning.
Dad: Yeah, I usually ignore you then.
Mom: But your hand moved...
Dad: Was it making a gesture?
Now there is a relationship example to follow, that's some awesome parenting.
In all seriousness though, they love each other (we think), but they are pretty ridiculous sometimes. They kept me and my sister too petrified of embarassing them in public that we were usually pretty quiet when we went out, at least until my sister reached her teenage years and my mother told her she was dressing like a "sexpot" and let her go out anyways.
The Domestic Goddess is a good one, now that's comfort food.

Did my relationship thread jump over to here??
I dont know if there will be a second date or not.
Its up in the air right now.
My parents did the same.In all seriousness though, they love each other (we think), but they are pretty ridiculous sometimes. They kept me and my sister too petrified of embarassing them in public that we were usually pretty quiet when we went out
I was so petrified of them and what would happen back at home, i just sat and wasn't heard.
I constantly heard the saying
"Little boys are to be seen and not heard."
Didn't want to push that theory what so ever.
s was kinda strong, how about little bas s high on sugar. (bas s ain't a stretch in this day and age either.) I just hate how parents leave their kids at the toy/video game store, so they can go out shopping, leaving the tv/clerks as a free babysitter. When I worked at the movies these parents had their kid see some kids movie while they went to see Blade II, he had to wait an hour in the lobby by himself for them to get out. Some parents need classes so they ain't so ty.
Lesson 1
If your kid talks back slap him/her across the face.
In fourth grade, I guess this girl who was a year above me got suspended or something. And they called her mom to come into the school. ANd the mom came into the school with some sort of a strap , ad started ebating her daughter really hard. There was a lot of screaming and yelling and the teachers had to restran the moher , I guess.
I once saw what had to be a 9 year old in a stroller with a pacifier! WTF!?!?!
It's not the childs fault for that, but cmon, when you're a parent and you get as many "dirty looks" as that lady did that day, you think you'd get the hint!
