    My boys are the exact same way. They are in bed by 8:00. They have never once given us a problem or played the in & out of bed game. Before bed they pick up their toys, brush their teeth, wash their hands, pj's on, and Bill and I go in their rooms, give them hugs & kisses and then lights out, doors closed.

    When I watch those shows I want to scream at the television like a man watching football. I get so worked up. I can't beleive this is how some people are living raising their families. If my kid ever spit in someone's face you better believe their lil' ass wouldn't be able to sit down until the pain from my hand print wore off. I am a full believer in disciplin. We have control over our children not them having control over us. My boys are great boys because of this. They are not afriad of us either, in fact they always want to spend time with us and ask us to do lots with them.

    I understand the whole parent wanting to be the child's friend but in most cases they have to be the parent first and correct certain behaviors. A child cannot be the one telling the parent how it's going to be.

    You know, my hubby and I were just discussing this the other day. You look at these homes and you know they've got money. Is it a prerequisite that you have to bring in a certain amount of moolah per year to make the show, I wonder? Or is it just that poverty-stricken children misbehaving wouldn't be so appalling to viewers? Like, oh, it figures they'd act that way...but rich kids acting that way, oh, the horror! :rolleyes:

    Heheheh!

    Or perhaps it's a way of showing that "money doesn't buy everything". You can be rolling in the dough but your kids can still be spoiled and disrespectful, perhaps even worse than middle class to lower class children, hence, money can't buy everything.

    Yeah, my my twins are in bed by 7:00 PM and my oldest son is in bed by 8:00 PM. They never fight us about it.

    I hear you on getting worked up watching that show. The football description fits perfectly. You want to take these parents and say "what is WRONG with you? How did you ever let your children get to this point?!" My kids have never acted like those kids on those shows, and I don't even spank them. They just KNOW that kind of behavior is not something mommy and daddy will put up with. We've taught them better!

    I didn't get to see Super Nanny on Monday, but I saw Nanny 911.

    I know what you mean though, when I see those parents on those shows who act like it's no big deal, that it's normal, or that it's humorous the way their kids are acting, it totally ticks me off! So many of those kids are just awful, it's amazing how their parents have allowed that kind of behavior to go on.

    It's not funny. It's horrible. These children are going to be going to school and then what? I shiver at the very thought of what these kids would be like in school.


    Kids are throwing punches in Kindergarten. That is unbelievable. Why are they so full of rage at the age of 5 & 6?

    My husband just told me there was a school bus near here that had to take all the children to the Hospital because some lil' phucker decided he'd bring pepper spray on the bus and spray everyone's eyes with it. This happened today.

    Do you ever worry for your children's safety? I worry all the time and when I hear and read stuff like this I am so afraid for them.

    Why anyone would even think about dousing a baby with pepper spray is beyond me. I don't care if the woman was aiming for someone else, you don't go spraying that crap near an infant! Stupid, stupid people!

    Yes, I worry all of the time. I am soooo over protective with my kids, which is going to be hard for me as they get older when I have to let them have their independence. Right now, they're still huddled beaneath my wing. ;)

    You are exactly how I am. I am very protective.

    When my oldest got on the bus the first day of Kindergarten I cried. Every day he gets on the bus I give him a big hug and a kiss and when he gets home he gets another big hug and kiss. I am excited to see him. I am also relieved to see him because too much unnecessary dumb shit goes on nowadays.

    I know that I'll be the same exact way when my oldest heads off to kindergarten. *sighs*
