i really should write a book on parenting

[Fausto]

Actually, that would be pretty funny for the rest of us, maybe not SandEagle.

She'll find a new Daddy every weekend!

You find your best troll topic yet. Good for you!

I dunno, I think ATOT got more worked up about "Attacked By Poodles".

LOL! Best answer yet!


OP, why so elaborate? Just beat her.

I had a 20 minute discussion last week with one of my lab techs about how shaking a baby helps to make its neck stronger.

Children should be locked up.

This will be less funny when she runs away at 15 and starts stripping.

So she'll be the stripper that cries?

Lying to your kids is near the bottom of my asom parenting list. It's sure to fail over the long or short term, and earn you distrust from your kids when they figure out that you lied to them and cannot be trusted. Even joking lies can turn out badly when the child takes it for truth and figures it out later -- the joke is lost, and all that remains is the manipulative lie.

It's much better to keep the reward and punishment real. Take away game and entertainment privileges for misbehavior, give special rewards for good behavior, and explain and explain the differences between the good and the bad. Real threats, rewards and understanding the reasons work much better than imaginary threats.

Yep.

Well since he has already made the threat, he might just have to send her to boarding school if she continues to misbehave. That way it wouldn't be a lie.

clearly all of your parents have failed raising you. all you do is whine. have no worries though. buy my book when its published and you wont make the same mistakes they did. any volunteers for thr illustrator position? i pay in layers.

Something about "position" and "layers" just does not sound right.

Tuition at Midland for the 2012-13 academic year is $40,500.

Can I choose the title? I'd go with:
"Lying your way to parent of the year"TM

SandEagle Thread Phase One: Fausto craps in thread at least five times without contibuting anything positive

[T_Yamamoto]

Alex, I'll take Things SandEagle Can't Afford for $1.

Fixed for yeah.

 

[Fausto]

ftfy, da

Crapping in your threads is like dividing by zero.

 

[Pr0d1gy]

Your daughter must not have much common sense. My kids are 10 and under and would never buy this.

 

[amdhunter]

Anyone ask for pics of daughter yet?

Parenting 101: NEVER make a promise or threat that you are not able or willing to follow up on.

OP: Fail.

 

[HardcoreRobot]

yes, you are adept at trolling even your own family. no surprise there.

i suspect a truly good parent would never be in your position of needing to come up with elaborate lies to get their child to behave.

 

[HardcoreRobot]

You posted a thread saying your daughter drew a picture in school of you telling her she was your slave?

Didn't you also say you were worried about what the teacher might think of the pic?

lol wtf do you have to add to a thread about parenting?

on second thought, maybe SE just taught you how to convince your son not to buy that camaro. lol

I really should write a book on trolling.

Agreed. :thumbsup:

Every word of this, and more.

You are the most important man in her life. If she can't trust you, how is she ever going to trust anyone else?

Stop thinking short-term, and look at the big picture. She's going to pay the price for your laziness when she grows up.
