Haha same mate, my mother did not take kindly to stuff being needlessly destroyed, first my mum would of whooped my a*s, then my auntie, then my gran (strong Italian woman don't play).

Mine too. If we didn't do it right (She never showed us) we got an earful.

Same here. Even when I was little(that was a decade ago) the discipline was better. I never got pulled by the ear, but I did get a few light slaps on the butt and got slapped through the hands when I was 3 for destroying one sheet of documents, thinking I would get away with drawing on them. I was a fairly good child never the less, preferring to be on my own devices(this by no way means I did sh*ts like those) and never demanding 24/7 centre of attention position. Someone might say this destroyed my relationship with my parents but far from it. Especially since my mom read a couple of books on child psychology, it has improved even more. I can safely say we have the best parent-child relationship I've ever seen and I've never even for a moment thought about doing all the cr*p "normal" teens do. If I ever make the mistake to have kids(which is unlikely), I would parent them like my mother did. Conversations, mutual agreement and understanding, evenly paired with a good discipline where needed.

Mine too!

With my sister and i all we needed to hear was our full name yelled out and we pissed ourselves cause we were in trouble. These days you cant even smack your child on the butt with out being reported to child protection services

yup.

I'm with you, Kiki. I dislike kids, and stay away from them. It's no different than folks who dislike cats or dogs.

You won't get flamed. But you will look like a very frustrated person. It's kind of sad really.
