Have times changed so much since my kids were little that it's hard to go out in public to see young parents with little kids. I went to the doctor a couple of days ago and waited for 2 hours in the waiting room to be seen. one hour of it was ok, but the next hour a young girl with two little ones came in with her mom and the little toddler screamed for a solid hour. cause he didn't want to he held, he didn't want his brother held. every once in a while the young mother or the grandmother would give him a piece of candy to try to appease him. What is wrong with that picture?????????? well it is rewarding this little angel for being bad. giving mixed signels. How are they suppose to learn right from wrong like that? I know, I know it wasn't any of my business. but the screaming was invading my space and the space of the rest of the people that were sick and had been waiting for so long.

It's amazing that in this day and age the kids are in control. Of course we can't give them a little swat on the padding anymore because we might bruise their little egos, however if they don't learn at home to be disciplined then how are they going to be in school and later in the work force. I 'm not saying , to beat them, but we have generations of little hippy kids running around doing their own thing.
They use to say not to spank cause it caused these kids to grow up violent and would in up in prison. Has anyone ever watched a toddler that never was spanked and wanted something, and how mad he got to get it? Where did that anger come from? Have u noticed that we've had to build alot more prisons today? Have u noticed the violance on the video games and tv? No consequences means no direction , no direction means no accountability, no accountablility means no respect for others..
