I was calling Santa by Stoneheather

That was hilarious! I wish I would've thought of that when my kids were younger.

You know what Stoneheather, and I've posted this, I was very lenient with my kids. I made excuses for them. I babied them. I let them get by with all kinds of crap because I 'didn't want to break their spirits'.

Let me tell you this...what you saw tonight was in a 4 year old body. Wait till he's 12...almost as big as you....calls you a Bitch and puts a hole in the wall! NOW....what you you gonna do????

I have a very sweet son.....but he's done the above....more than once.

I SOOO wish I would have beat his butt till he couldn't sit down when he was four. My Mom used to be so mad at me for putting up with his tantrums. If ONLY I had listened to her...............

My parents didn't put up with anything. To THIS day if I sassed my Mom...she would smack the crap out of me. I know this to be true. I also knew it as a teenager. WHY? Because she taught me at a young age that if I didnt' respect her...she wasn't going to show me respect back....she was gonna tear my butt up.

I KNOW how hard it is.....I totally sympathize with your situation!
