Just been watching this on the telly :shock:  :shock: . Anyone else think there's a case for battering children??

[Paul]

I'm watching it...

Carn't belive the words coming out of the kids mouths. :shock:

[karloss]

The first time my boy uses language like that to his mother will be the last.
Sorry, my boy knows better than that. And he's only four!

[Andy.]

Totally shocking, cannot believe that these kids talk to there parents the way they do  :shock:

Even now at my age I don't swear in front of mine.

There's been another programme on recently about unrulely kids where the parents go to wait for it.........parent classes, some of those kids were even worse  :shock:

[karloss]

Worse than that lot?   :shock:  :shock:  :shock:

[Andy.]

Oh yeah, bad language and violence.

They did though by the end of the series all manage to sort each of there kids out, well better than what they were.

[karloss]

The really amazing thing about all these programmes is that people have the front to go on national tv and admit they let their kids rule the roost.
The mind boggles, it really does.

[Andy.]

I had to laugh at one of the closing comments made on tonights show.

There they all were eating out in a resturant and it what said that they now even feel as if they can take there kids out in public  :lol:

Would she kill them herself, like I would, or would you be the domineering father like in the programme :?:

[roscoe]

Unbelievable, but where did they pick up that language and how did they manage to get to be so bad. Lack of discipline from the outset. Those parents need to take a long hard look at themselves.

I cant watch those sorts of programs .... too much like homework.  :roll:

Mainly due to the sort of kids described (and there are LOTS of them) the average career time of a modern teacher is 4.5 years (and that includes the 2-5 years training)

UNBE-FLIPPIN-LIEVABLE :!:  :!:  :!:

I'd have suggested a selection from the following:

Move house and don't tell them

Tie them to a post in the garden and cool them down with a firehose

Sacrifice one as a lesson to the others (well.. with three spares it's got to be an option)

OR.... Take the parents to one side and ask them what kind of people they are to have allowed it to get to that stage in the first place

 :roll:  :roll:  :roll:

Perhaps it's just a cry for help. There are sites out there that can provide help and support for this sort of problem.

All children are naughty from time to time, but they were truly unruly
personally i blame the parents for lack of routine all children need routine
so they know where they are.

my little boy has started shouting at me and asserting his authority and yes perhaps i am a little soft at times, but when i shout boy does he know i mean business and off he goes to sit on bottom of stairs to calm down
he knows the rules.

Agree with comment why do they go on telly in the first place - JUNIOR JERRY SPRINGER SPRINGS TO MIND....... :lol:

[jimbob]

Was workin in that house this week!
They no longer live there but left the place in a state.

I'd just give his remains a good telling off!! :lol:
