DISCIPLINE your children for gods sake!

**guest589745** · 06-10-2006, 05:15 PM

Man, I can't believe its turnin out like this but, one of my best friends has this 4 year old child who is just behaving HORRIBLY. The kid walks right into my house, steps on the cat and tries to flip over the couch to find it (small chair). I tell him "hey, what'you think yer doin?" and he gives me this dirty little look and slams the door when I tell him he has to go home. Then, I tell my friend (his dad) and his excuse is "he's a kid man" (as he continues to smoke a joint on the front porch).......WTF!? That gives them an excuse to do anything they want? Then, the next day, the kid spits on my other friend and he walks him back home by his hand and my other friend (kids dad) says "hey, you ever touch my kid again an Im gonna fuk yer ass up!". Not to mention when the child is playing with my kid, he tries to tell my kid not to touch toys that are MY CHILDS! This is now getting to the point where I don't even wanna associate with my good (or so I thought) friend because his kid is such a little brat and obviously they arent gonna do anything about it. He was so cute til he got to be this age, he has completely turned around (the kid).

Any advice or thoughts?

Your guess is as good as mine. Why is he 27 with no job for that matter? Thta is true, kids aer products of their environment. It can go either way when they are exposed to things of this nature. It can make them better or worse. I know it made me better luckily.

That might be the best option.

if the kid pisses u off that much when ur with him, tell ur freind that he needs to discipliine his kid or dont bring him around...it will help in the long run cause if he doesnt the kid will be a loser in life...

oh boy i would drop that friend, sounds like some people i know back in mi

**Fletch3138** · 06-10-2006, 07:37 PM

I would definitely keep my child away from that kid. Because that stuff will eventually start rubbing off. Some people just aren't cut out for parenthood, because they are still kids themselves.

No doubt. You can't really blame the kid man. He is a product of his parents teachings and discipline. Do you really want your kid growing up with this little prick as his friend? Sounds like you have some tough choices but you may want to distant yourself from them for the sake of you and your child.

Just not too much discipline. At work like everyday I see a parent grab their child and yell at them

yea discipline, not abuse.

**JAYROD** · 06-11-2006, 07:23 AM

i know i good old fashioned spanking worked for me. i remember if i did something to get spanked i didn't do it again. a few smaks on the ass doesn't = abuse imo.

**Homeguard** · 06-11-2006, 07:38 AM

How can a child learn life if he doesn't know the social rules and boundaries. Discipline is there to show that bad things have a consequence.

I would dissassociate myself with your friend mate, just to show him how serious the situation is. At the very least ban the little shite from your house

**Kale** · 06-11-2006, 07:52 AM

There is nothing abusive about yelling at your kids. I have had five kids and they have all grown up great and they all got there asses smaked if they fvcked up. What is the world comming to when you get dead head dickheads like this guy smoking dope in front of his kids. If it was me I would call the cops and have him busted

Well, I wouldn't do that to him, as pissed as I can be at this situation. I understand yer point though and if he was never my friend, I would.

Stun guns don't leave marks. jk.

Seriouisly though, an anonymous call to Children's Services may be in order if the drug thing persists, but I know you'd hate to do tht to a friend.

Ever see Nanny 911 or that episode of South Park where they call in the Dog whisperer to straighten out Cartman?

**guest589745** · 06-11-2006, 08:08 AM

It still pisses me the fuk off when I think of how he just is completely oblivious to his actions, or lack thereof, and how they effect his kid and others around him. This sucks.

**NCNPC29** · 06-11-2006, 08:12 AM

I have seen kids with parents who don't spank and ones who do. I gotta say, the ones that dont' spank seem to have some smart ass little kids. I got spanked when I deserved it and I dont' consider that abuse in any way shape or form. My sister trys to talk to her kids like she's rationlizing with an adult. The little boy acts very spoiled and unruly.
