Quote From: lonalea200 You sound in total denial. You make it sound as if, kids will be kids. Not true ! Parents have a much bigger role in how they turn out. Most people, when they grow up, realize that you pick up on your parents behavior more than you sould think. there are somethings that I swore I would never do, but you know....I do them. The parents are the ones who raise, support and give love no matter what. So don't think that you have no influence and that, kids will be kids. The percentage of children who have behavior problems are from parents behaviors problems. Wake up !
Lona Well if you want this little boy to come stay with you for a week to see if you can do a better job?...... It's maybe what they call the STRONG WILLED CHILD. At 10:30 at night he comes to me with 5 board games and says "I want to play a game before I go to bed." I say it's time to go to bed you have school tomorrow. He says "I want to play some games." I say "You are going to bed." He says, "We are going to play some games and that's final!" And let me tell you it's cute at first and almost funny. But when a kid like this lives with you 24/7. It WEARS on you and makes you tired. You somehow compromise and do give in. He has brought 100 ants in a box into my nice kitchen because he thought I wanted to see them. He has had 2 spiders in a jar living in my basement for a month that I only found out about when he ran to get them to show a visitor. He collects bees nests. When I screamed when I saw them in our garage, He said" "Oh, don't worry mom I killed them all."
