Personal Examples of Bad Parenting

I just used facebook to tell my kid to go to bed. On the plus side, I said it more politely than I would have done if I just yelled at her........

She does that and I'll uncomputer her...... She knows the score.

I do that all the time with the big boys (not that I usually have to tell them). I also tell them to be quiet sometimes too. Usually only if it's after Max has gone to bed and i'm sitting in my arm chair with my feet up.

She's usually in bed way before her official bedtime, but after two days without swimming and early wake-ups, Sunday nights can be a bit iffy.

the boys are an entirely diferent kettle of fish, but they don't facebook, so they get the yelling treatment (among others

)
