Comments on: Kids Gone Wild! Bring Back The Village!!! http://kleverkathy.com/2009/04/17/kids-gone-wild-bring-back-the-village/ I have one and you have one...an opinion! Let's talk! Wed, 09 May 2012 09:45:41 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Karol Ann http://kleverkathy.com/2009/04/17/kids-gone-wild-bring-back-the-village/comment-page-1/#comment-1011 Karol Ann Sat, 18 Apr 2009 09:42:30 +0000 http://kleverkathy.com/?p=447#comment-1011 Well, I've had scenario #1 at my house except different furniture and the Mother looked at the kid and said,"Karol Ann is gonna get you"....needless to say I didn't offer too many more visits to my house to the family and we drifted apart. Parents are adults and know their bad children are acting up so if they won"t handle "badness" I would say something as the others have said like, "no, no we don't do that at this house". #2 would require getting the Mom's attention from the cell phone call I think because kids don't respect looks like we did back in the day, they just glare at you harder when you look at them trying to get them to stop. Action would need to be taken in both cases dealing politely with the parent I believe. The Winans said it best, "Bring back the days of yea and nay..." things were clearer then!<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('1011','Karol Ann'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('1011','Karol Ann','Well, I\'ve had scenario #1 at my house except different furniture and the Mother looked at the kid and said,\"Karol Ann is gonna get you\"....needless to say I didn\'t offer too many more visits to my house to the family and we drifted apart.

As parents, we shouldn't want our kids to be a burden to someone else no matter how cute we think their behavior is. I think my daughter is cute as a button, but sooner or later I'm going to set those little legs on fire! For me, when a child knows what they are doing and it is wrong, a correction is in order. The specific correction depends on the action, but I can tell you right now there will be no timeouts unless I get tired.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('992','Tom Sawyer'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('992','Tom Sawyer','Both situations call for some situational awareness from the parents.

I'm fact you should be glad I didn't raise you. I'd would have warmed your little bloomers up. Ask my kids and see what they tell you. In fact I told them that if they bring the grand kids and they act up I'm going to heat them up too. And if the parents don't like it they can get some too.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('988','half and half (mary)'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('988','half and half (mary)','You need to let me keep your kids for a week if you think I\'m playing.\r\nI\'m fact you should be glad I didn\'t raise you.
