    Shame he's still $55 down though. So watch out for the mobile phone too!

    Quality. I wish I had more parents like that of the children I teach. Trouble is he'll probably buy him another come next christmas/birthday.

    and you really think this is going to make a difference to the kids behaviour? i doubt it tit for tat never works as bush and blair are finding out.
    the kid'll probably have to go out and find new distractions from the boredom he will now be immersed in. you see, in a years time he'll be the dad of 3 kids and have a $100 a day crack addiction.
    it's very easy to get wound up and go too far with kids and discipline but that's why parents are adults... unless they are american it seems.
    cheers

    The trouble with the naughty kids I work with is usually that they are not set clear boundaries by their parents. The ones whose parents say no and mean it generally are pleasant delightful human beings. You have to start from an early age. I guess it will be too late for the American Teen. Behaviour has to be dealt with early, or it's often too late. It takes adulthood and few nasty knocks to encourage some, and sadly some never learn. I see former pupils of mine in the local rag quite often being sent down, and sad to say you had a pretty good idea it would happen.

    Personally I found slapping the parents is THE greatest way of controlling 'difficult kids' works wonders :)

    Class...

    The safest way to discipline though is to not have any of the l'il ****ers, or to put them in the microwave and use them as a cheap alternative to turkey for their first christmas.

    Kids eh, I couldn't eat a whole one!

    You'd have to get a big microwave Dom!

    Definatly Partents should be held accountable for their kids behavour and the line "I can't control what my kids do" in unacceptable, if you can't deal with kids, DON'T HAVE THEM unless of ourse your using it as a money making scheme from our baby boom government.

    If you want to keep your hair, sanity and healthy bank balance steer well away from kids.

    Couldn't eat a whole one Dom, maybe we could go halves!

    What is he doing letting an 13 year old on his own till 11:30 and she didn't even know where he really was.

    Sounds like bad parenting, she probably even argues with him, never let your children argue back when being chastised, this lets them think they are equal, tell them your house is not a democracy, and parents have the last word.
