RAISE ENJOYABLE CHILDREN!!! My lord, my step kids are the most annoying kids ever. Ugh. The more they're away from their mom the better they act but wow when they are first from her grips it's unbearable.

I have gotten to the point where I stay gone, or in my room when they are over. He made them, he can deal with their shit. It's not so annoying then. Wink

I always used to get compliments like "your children are a breath of fresh air" and "your children are so well-behaved and polite"

In contrast, YSS, at the time stb 7 was told he was too LOUD in a LAUNDROMAT with all the machines roaring along. Chef's reaction? "Mind your old business, old lady."

I used to get the hate stares when we would go out to eat. In a perfect storm of zero manners, boundaries and structure, other patrons were getting ready to run me out on a rail thinking I was their mother!

I vowed NEVER EVER to eat out even with just Chef and YSS alone ever again! Thank GOD they all PASed out soon after!

What drives me nuts are the compliments I get on BS5 for things that EVERY freaking kid should be doing! Like Christmas Eve service, a woman who was sitting behind us, just raved after the service about what a good, well behaved little boy BS5 was. I said, "well he's been going to church since he was a baby", she said, "yes well, an hour is a LONG time to sit" Huh? Then there are the people who act shocked that BS5 said "thank you" when something is given to him or done for him. The check out lady at the grocery store (Walmart) the other day raved about how happy and well behaved BS5 was... yeah lady I bet you see some real doozies here!

Like WTF? Why are these things such a damn shock? Oh that's right, because the world is being overrun with entitled, snot nosed, manipulative crappily behaved little minions of the baby birthing women who have no business having kids.

Unfortunately, though in this world of COD, entitlement society there's hardly any children, teens and yes even adults that have manners. My parents would have spanked me within an inch of my life had I acted the way many kids do today. In my estimation that is what is wrong with today's kids. Everyone is afraid to discipline their kids. DCFS might get called. Little Princess may not want to come back. Or even I want little Johnny to be my best friend. Makes me fear for my grandkids.

I am paraphrasing another poster here who said... I do not like your children DH. They are not likable children...It is your job to teach them the skills to make them likable.

Unfortunately, I forget who said it so i can't give credit but it always stuck with me.
