Re: Are You a Mean Parent?

Yes....I was a MEAN mum.........I would tell my daughter not to do something...or else! and if she did what she wasn't supposed to do she found out that I MEANT it. In our house we played Good Cop - Bad Cop....and I don't have to tell you who was the BAD cop!

She used to yell and scream that she hated me.....so why is it she is bringing up her two children using my methods? (in fact.....I stole my methods from MY mum....who was the meanest mum in creation)!
