Well okay I may rant a little.

Today I decided great weather I must go catch some images for the POTY.....so off I go to national trust property ...... totally feckin amazed at the number of parents who have no control of their children and the amount of parents who take the softly softly approach to their kids......for the love of bouncing bunnies it is the kids who should be subverted not the parents.......

Best one of the day was a child who started to cry (well pretend to....) parent 1 "what is wrong darling?"
Parent 2 lifts child and cuddles and Molly cuddles him.
Child "I don't want to be here,I want to go home."
Parent 1 "OK sweetie we will go home."
Off they trot straight back to the car that had just left.....I mean literally they had just walked about 100 yards toward the house......

The child was like 8 years old.......

A good tight snack would have cured his nonsense and a kick up the ass would sort the parents.....

Not a bloody bit of wonder the country is screwed up.......

RANT OVER!!......THAT IS ALL... :mad:
 
I have no idea how parents should treat their kids, but taking them away from where I want to be works for me :thumbs:
 
The place was lovely, the weather great but the little####

I am not saying the kids need to be beat to a pulp but parents should lead buy example and show kids the meaning of respect and obedience.

I have two kids (adults now) and swear it would be a cold day in hell before I let them act the maggot......

I like to see other kids create, reminds me that my kids are normal. without knowing the whole story of the family you can't really make any judgements

I don't think you need to know the family......The behaviour and lack of discipline says it all.......


Also the was a good cross section of different types of family... ie the snobs and the chavs.....
 
Least i am not going to be tearing my hair out this year last few years, i had a few children who would walk past my garden, walk up the drive and take flowers give them to "mummy" and she say thank you.. i did say that will be £5 please she told me to go have a widdle...

POAH's response is similar to my initial thought and has nothing to do with being snobs or chavs. Friends of mine have a lad with aspergers and always found it difficult to find entertainment for him, which might be the case with the specific example you gave. In general though, i prefer avoiding too many kids, because the majority are just little brats ;)

that's not lack of discipline, its normal kid behaviour.

Totally agree! My inlaws had a kid who was out of control, he used to sit on neighbours car roofs for fun. He will grow out of it they said instead of giving him a winger, well he didn't he's 33 now and a waster

This is what happens when there is no discipline.......


In an earlier post aspergers was mentioned....my wife is a professional in the field of aspergers and through this I have gained knowledge of the syndrome and we have a family member who has it and believe me there was no syndrome present today but lack of discipline both with the kids and parents

well if my 3 year old 'tomorrow' acts up he gets dragged round no matter what to not ruin our days out
with looks from every one else
probably thinking 'take that screaming child away from me'

I just ignore my kids when they act up - they soon stop.

I think you have misunderstood me....when I said there was no syndrome today it was with reference to the particular moment in time NOT in general. My wife wouldn't be in her job now if it didn't exist.......

Now I like to pop into Costa, Starbucks, or any of those other coffee houses that don't really understand UK tax business implications for a bit of piece and quiet, relax and take on board a bit of caffeine. I have to say,I have noticed a sudden increase of children running around, knocking things over. It's the feckless parents I blame but honestly, My local Costa is becoming more like McDonalds in terms of child-like noise levels and behaviour.

My nephew runs rings around his parents. My son is the same age, just turned 6. I ended up having a go at my sister about how she lets her boy run riot just to be told that I need to let my kids be kids. I think if you take kids out for a meal or somewhere where there are others you have to take those others into consideration, however, those others do need remember they are children and there's only so much a parent can do when out and about. Like I say I have a 6 year old boy and twin girls that are about to turn 3 and it can get a bit stressful sometimes when you're out with them. I think if people can see you are at least trying to control your kids (in a nice way) they have a little more patients. Also we where all kids once.
 
We used to get bollocked, beaten or otherwise disciplined if we misbehaved. We quickly learned what was and what was not acceptable behaviour. These days it would be termed child abuse. Back then, it was just the way parents disciplined their kids.

And as the saying goes, it never did us any harm ;)
 
OK I get that in some situations kids need to be controlled, but there's plenty of times when I let my kids (5,3, and 1) run riot a bit, especially if it's outside. They're kids, they will do what kids do. I get plenty of disproving looks from people, especially when I'm acting up with them (trolley runs in supermarkets, or "vampire teeth" with chips in a restaurant), but I really don't care, it's just how I parent. I'm not soft with them, but I have never, and will never hit them.
 
Looks like byker28i has joined the grammar police..lol:D

I don't care how much expertise you may or may not have, you can't possibly know whether the child in question did or did not have Aspergers simply from the short observation in your OP.
