Dinner table antics annoy the shit out of me...

[Mia62]

Geez...my youngest two get worse with every meal. They are behaving in ways that I hate and egging each other on. They have been bitching at me cause they want to watch a movie...

Wellllllllll...I finished MY supper about 10 minutes ago and they are still behaving like imbeciles.

Soooo...I told them that since they are doing behaviour that I hate and won't stop...I am going to post continuously until they are done. They verbalized that they hate that I am doing this...but it aint speeding them up much.

 

[Killswitch]

I dont want to sound rude here, and I appologize if I do, but maybe if you spent more time with the children,and less time online they wouldnt be trying to get your attention acting the way they do.....

Lesson Number 214/b from The Kiwiwolf Book of Better Parenting and Animal Husbandry.


Gag them and wrap them in Velcro. fasten them firmly to the ceiling and spoon feed them from far away. To do this we suggest the "Kiwiwolf 6 footer" a spoon without rival.

Exactly the reason why I have NOT been online much for the past 48 hours...sorry, but 5-10 posts a day (until now) IS less time. D'ohhh.

You kids are doing stuff I hate so I'm going to do stuff you hate. That's mature.

They are testing, mia.

It may get worse before it gets better.

Right now, they need structure and consistency and under the circumstances, don't have a lot of it. What they need is predictability. So, even if you consistently kick their hineys every time they behave that way, you will eventually win!



Actually, my son really struggled with his behavior when we were going through the divorce. GEesh, who knew they could threaten to suspend a five year old for being, what he called, "dishruptive?"

I won that battle!

Never raise anything you cannot kill and eat when you get tired of it. That's my uncle's motto.

 

[Rubyfruit]

I hate when mine have had multiple fights, crying and screaming scenes and world class whining, all within the first 10 minutes of getting home, and all while I'm trying to prepare dinner.

That just makes my eye twitch.

 

[Killswitch]

Maybe instead of hurrying them thru dinner, plopping in a movie-babysitter for them....pull out the manapoly board, or some board game they enjoy, and play with them.

They only want your attention mia. Give it to them.

Joys kids all attack her when she comes in from work too. It drives her crazy.

I have tried to get everyone to give her at least one hour of downtime when she gets home to unwind and relax, but it never works out that way.

Hi Mia,

Maybe next year, when they turn 22 and 23, things will improve.

Hey babycakes. I'm still waiting for you to come here and build me that velcro room.

Tricks have been slow. I think the economy is effecting the sex trade.

LMFAO... Not a velcro room honey... I'll sew you crotchless velcro body suit and turn up wearing velcro gloves... you'd never get away.

Maybe you should tell her, "They only want your attention Joy. Give it to them."

That way, she can clobber you for the rest of us.

 

[Purrde Flower]

My kids do this stuff all the time. I would do this.. put one in a different room or all of them in different rooms and let one eat at a time. Tell them they have a ceratin amount of time. 10 minutes is good if it is just to finish up. If they don't then they can go to bed instead of watching movie..

Touche', but being attacked when she comes in the door only gets her on edge. She is a workaholic, and spends plenty of quality time with the children....I would just like to see her be able to unwind slowly, then spend time, and I do explain to her that they are just glad to see her....she knows that of course.

But yeah....I deserved that bonk on the head.
