Unfortunately, my sister's children are going to have a rough life when they get older (the oldest being 10). I can just imagine them at work and being told something, but because of their upbringing they won't assume there will be consequences if they don't follow through. My sister would get 'fed up' with the way her kids were acting, send them to their room and the kids would be in the pantry or one even went to his friend's house...there's no 'discipline' in that household at all! Thank you for stating it the way that you did. I especially like the "not a dictator, but a parent" line. It really hits home (to me at least!)Emily Shawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02281695548294271054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7048362417837029884.post-61455178239700054372008-06-16T14:00:00.000-05:002008-06-16T14:00:00.000-05:00I am all for public discipline.When I was growing ...I am all for public discipline.<BR/><BR/>When I was growing up, we learned more from being disciplined in front of others...seriously.

Maybe it's the terrible twos who knows. I do know I am forever working on it. Child #1 is molded quite nicely.

Some lady was there with her kid who looked to be about 3 or so, and kept telling him "Come sit down. Come sit down. COME SIT DOWN." After each weak threat, she'd go back to filing her nails and he'd go right back to what he was doing. Finally he almost broke something and she said "Come sit down! Why don't you listen to me?" BECAUSE HE DOESN'T HAVE TO! <BR/><BR/>I agree that sometimes it's not worth it - i.e. pick your battles. If you're constantly saying no, don't do that, don't touch that, come here, do this, do that... your voice becomes white noise.<BR/><BR/>(Says the haughty, know-it-all mother of a 2-year-old.)Staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04890790775164491968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7048362417837029884.post-91074080602256758362008-06-14T11:36:00.000-05:002008-06-14T11:36:00.000-05:00Yuts, daw palagpat imo blog.Yuts, daw palagpat imo blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7048362417837029884.post-48288393730447522522008-06-14T10:08:00.000-05:002008-06-14T10:08:00.000-05:00Boyd that's funny!Boyd that's funny!Feliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06017873481856601926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7048362417837029884.post-45794418722149739582008-06-14T09:12:00.000-05:002008-06-14T09:12:00.000-05:00Don't tempt, Boyd!!

I'm not condoning their use on children. I'm just saying that's where they sell them.... <BR/><BR/>Technically, I don't suppose it has to be actually YOUR child for it to work so long as the real parent, nor the child knows how take the collar off...<BR/><BR/>Which comes to my second point, you can get PADLOCKS at Lowes, which is in the same mall as Petsmart...A.
