They, well three of them, are playing a game called heads up thumbs down where one lies down and the others decide one to pinch them and they have to guess who it was. The other two (the one who was asleep, wasn't after all) are upstairs getting too loud.
At least they've all brushed their teeth. It's going to be a long night 🙁

When I was a kid, my folks said, and I did. No threat of violence, no slaps, no withdrawal of pocket money. I just respected them. My mother had to give me the slipper once, when I was well out of order. Oher than that, me and my brother, we just toed the line.

Sounds idyllic. My parents beleived in smaking but I don't.
Well it's all about control and its all pyschological really isn't it. Some kids just know that they can do what they like. Especially over the last 15-20 years.
It's all gone bonkers!!!!!
Originally posted by jimslyp69To have an understanding is ideal then, that's what I mean. When their dad shouts they stop but I can be shouting and shouting threats of no pudding, no tv, no wii, no playstation, no swimming, etc, ect and they carry on. If they get too noughty, like hurt eachother, then I sit them on the stairs for minutes according to their years which is just time to calm down really. It would be so lovelly to not have to do that, maybe when they're older.
