this is so funny because it brings my mom to memory. I can still hear her yelling to us in the back seat of the car, that if we didn't stop what ever it was we were doing, she was going to stop the car. this threat was daily and we knew she was never going to go through with it so did we stop? nope!
I did learn from this, however, and brought it into the raising of our own children. if I said it, I meant it. i never yelled it, only spoke it. I only had to pull that car over once and let me tell you, never had to again. if I said it they stopped. it wasn't only used in the car, it was used at anytime. if i told you to stop you'd better cause there would be a 'for sure' consequence if you didn't.
thanks for teaching me to be a better parent mom. xxoo
Exactly, my kids learned the hard way when they were throwing a tantrum waiting for the tram into dl, gave the threat and just rode the tram back to the parking lot, they've learned not to test again.
To the posters judging the op I highly doubt when she went to post on a disney message board how can I kick parents of special needs kids, why can't a post just be a post, she didn't say anything to suggest the kids had special needs just observing a high amount of temper tantrums, has the world become so overly oc that every situation had to take into account every possible scenario
