Well what can i say?

Kipax i have nothing but admiration for you to be able to bring up your children the way you have done so i think it is wonderful im sure if i knew how i would follow in your steps.

I have 2 children boy aged 3, and girl aged 5. And they can be extremely naughty!! like any their age i hope,but especially with my boy (3) there is nothing i can do i cant put him in his room he thinks thats fine and will rip wallpaper of the walls, I cant take his toys away hes not bothered he will play with anything he gets his hands on not caring whos it is or what it is.

I try not to smack them but sometimes its the only way i know how that actually works i dont have miriam stoppard living next door i can only do what i know how and alot of the time it hurts me more than the children to smack them for what they have done and that is the gods honest truth.

As they get older its true you can reason with them and explain things to them which they can understand.

I also believe that if youths are to be roaming the streets causing trouble giving abuse smoking, drinking, whatever they are doing. I believe it has alot to do with where they are brought up if you are brought up on a council estate then you are more likely to be one of those people, especially if you are easily led. If you are brought up in a nice residential area where the adults show the way by not standing out in the front garden in the summer drinking beer and being roudy, then it is more likely that you will be one of the more quiet people who have a few good friends and so on.

I dont know what people will think to what i have but but just remember it is only what i think and not what i want you all to believe!!
