Recharging your battery so you have the energy to do all the things you have to later is much more productive than getting burnt out, rushing through chores while you have a moment without the kids under foot

    After such a long time isolating at home, summer, with all the outdoor activities it has to offer, is like a blessing. A warm, fleeting blessing, begging to be enjoyed. However, taking your kid to a public place and getting them to behave can be tricky.

    Parents have a lot of tricks up their sleeves to make it work. But every now and then, they also need to discipline their kids.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    John Adams, a dad of two and the man behind multi-award-winning parenting and fatherhood blog DadBlogUK, told Bored Panda: "Discipline in a family is important, but you do have to find a balance between allowing your child to learn from their mistakes and making clear when they have done something very wrong [but] if a child hits another child or bunks a lesson from school, they have to be punished so they know there are consequences to their actions."

    Anyone who says there’s one right way to raise a kid...doesn’t have kids. Every generation there’s a book or movement on the “very best and only right” way to raise a child. Spank, don’t spank. Formula, no formula. Sleep on stomach, sleep on back. Etc etc etc. I have strong feelings about each of those and more. So did previous generations. Get this...the right way to raise your child is what’s right for them. And don’t be surprised if it’s different for each of your kids.

    Feelings are valid. It's quite the revelation when you're like, four, that orange juice cannot go back into an orange. You have to help him work through it. It'll be good training for working through feelings about other things he cannot fix.

    When I was about four years old I went into the kitchen at my Aunt's house (where our family was visiting) and saw a large chunk of meat on the counter. I asked my mom what it was and she replied: "Leg of lamb, it's for supper". I immediately started sobbing: "Put the leg back on the lamb, put the leg back on the lamb!" (At the time I had this picture in my mind of a huge herd of three-legged amputee lambs hobbling about in a field :D ). My mom couldn't console me, so eventually she said: "Don't worry, this is 'Eating Lamb' from the butcher and not 'Baa Lamb' from the field." Apparently I was extremely satisfied with that reasoning and cheered up after that.

    Oh, i do acknowledge their feelings. It's just sometimes i don't care, as sometimes there are other things that has higher priorities than their feelings. My daughter getting angry at me because i didn't let her watching Netflix all day long without doing her study and chores is an example. Or when she tried to justify that she was being rude because she wasn't feeling well. Being ill does not give anyone the right to be an a****le.

    Good time to teach about practical vs. impractical expectations and desires without breaking their dreams that they can be anything still.

    Adams also pointed out that the definition of discipline changes as a child gets older.

    "If you're having to discipline a young child, you're probably telling them off for walking too close to the edge of a road, for taking a dangerous risk at a swimming pool or something like that. With older children, it can be about giving guidance. Why is it they always seem to get in trouble with the one school friend? Why did they think it was acceptable to light up a cigarette in front of a school teacher? Shouting will achieve nothing in those circumstances when a child needs guidance and if anything, could damage your relationship," the dad explained. "The one thing my wife and I have never done is hit our children. It simply isn't necessary and sends such a bad message to your child."

    He's right. The American Academy of Pediatrics (APP) advises that parents and caregivers should not spank or hit children. Instead of teaching responsibility and self-control, spanking actually does the opposite: it often increases aggression and anger in children. A study of children born in 20 medium to large U.S. cities discovered that families who used physical punishment got caught in a negative cycle: the more children were spanked, the more they misbehaved later, which prompted more spankings in response. Spanking’s effects may also be felt beyond the parent-child relationship — it sends the message that causing someone pain is OK if you’re frustrated. Even with those you love.

    This. I don’t pack my kid chips or cookies for snack… teacher then gave him cookies because she will never let a child go hungry. I was basically like, check his lunchbox; he’s not hungry he’s FOS. She didn’t stop. I then started packing him the cookies she gave him because I felt shame knowing someone else was feeding my kid and I have the means to do it myself. Her intentions were good… but completely undermined my parenting.

    LOL Kids, gotta love 'em! When I was in second grade I told my teacher that my parents force me to watch scary movies. Teacher calls my mom in for a chat. My mom was mortified bc they didn't let me watch scary movies. My dumba** just had a very overactive imagination. After I would be tucked into bed, my parents would watch a movie or something. I would hear the music from whatever they were watching and imagine a scary tale. My parents do not like nor watch scary movies still to this day lol

    Once when i was a kid my father stucked the car on the driveway which was under construction and he made an apology letter for me being late for school. In this letter he mentionned that i didn't lost my morning because he probably teached me a lot of new "words", cursing words. My teacher's face reading it was epic, a mix of sorry and helplessness.

    I still remember my vacation to North Carolina; I stayed by the beach for that week, and I'd constantly go out and collect some cool shells, rocks, and other things. I came home with enough to fill a whole bag - some of the most interesting things I found included a broken conch shell, a hatched "mermaid's purse" shark egg, a sand dollar, and what seemed to be part of an animal shell.

    This is funny, but it's also telling. Boys are permitted to take up all the space they want from an early age, while girls are told the opposite. So yes, this kid will probably grow up to be an unapologetic manspreader.

    This makes me think of my great aunt who worked with children and teens her whole life, and was the most vital old person I've ever known. I remember once, she was seventy-something and she climbed into a tree house I was afraid to climb into at eight years old. She claimed that working with kids had kept her mind young. So maybe the secret is working with other people's kids.

    I once heard a hamster swear. Not a cute little gold-hamster but one of those foul-tempered big European ones. I was biking with my dog when I realized he wasn't behind me anymore. Turned and saw him jumping around in a field. Thought he had a bird or something and hurried over (he usually didn't hurt animals at all, but of course you never know!) and then I saw that the "fluttering bird that was trying to escape" was actually a common hamster that was jumping right into my dog's face whenever he approached. Dog backed off, hamster tried to scuttle away, dog went back to look at it, hamster jumped up and hissed right into dog's face. Rinse and repeat until I came and took the dog. And hamster scuttled off, all the while muttering obscenities about the rude dogs and their useless humans. (I'm assuming that's what it said. But it was DEFINITELY swearing something) I apologized, but hamster didn't want to hear any of it. I can't even be mad - had every right to.

    When my daughter was young, my childless friend once remarked that she has now realised that new moms gain so much weight from all the leftovers they eat. I didn't appreciate it much.

    The leftovers are ALL she probably eats. Who has time for nice meal... eat scraps while doing the dishes and cleaning. IF mom's gain weight it is more likely because their priorities are not self centered. Should I go to the gym - or read a book to my little one?

    This is hard for me to not take seriously. So the dad just listened in while his very excited and proud son is getting confused and heartbroken when his mom didn't react as excitedly to his big accomplishment? Didn't step in right away to explain things to avoid unnecessary hurt feelings? These things stay in a child's mind for a long time. Maybe the kid lost his joy of learning to write right there, even if the situation got explained afterwards. Hurt feelings stick, even when they are based on silly misconceptions. (Sorry, I'm so fun at parties..)

    What kind of lazy teenagers do you have? My two sisters and I are all teenagers. We wash and fold our own laundry and the dishes are done regularly after lunch and dinner. We clean and organize our rooms periodically, me because I get panic attacks when things are too distracting, one of my sisters because she can't stand messiness, and the other one because she shares a room with the second one.

    Some things never change. I’m 60, and did that too when I was a teenager. Pretty sure both my parents did too at the same age. Hell, I’m willing to wager there were Neanderthal teenagers who hid their animal skins and leftover bones way in the back of the cave after their moms told them to clean their sleeping rocks.

After a few visits, all the kids would say "Mom!" when I came in the room. One of the T.A.'s tried to correct a student saying "No, that's Mrs. Emory" I said "Eh..let them call me mom. Makes me feel like I have more kids." I once met the mom of one of the other students and introduced myself. The T.A. said I was the one who brought in treats for the kids.

    A few years ago something circled the internet. A parent took their small child out for breakfast and when the waitress came the child told her "I want to devour the unborn". Eggs, the kid wants eggs

    On a less morbid note, my childhood friend's younger sister once carried around an egg for a while thinking it was going to hatch. It was a chicken egg... from a carton. I want to know how it ended; I just saw her yesterday and I should've asked.

    ... kind of makes me think ... I was asked by the 7 yo daughter of a friend's friend, after she overheard a conversation about a lot of issues, what kind of people would even eat animals at all ... with 7, I thought she knew this is pretty common and already should know she does that, too, so I said "you, right now, are eating an animal." (she had some kind of chicken-nugget in her hand), which caused ... uh, let's call it problems. A meltdown including "Never Again!" and "But I love them ... delicious ... " and a few rounds of back and forth within her opinion on it, and in the end, I was "that vegan" and it was my fault (then, I wasn't even one, but a vegetarian), but I didn't really want to take the blame, as I didn't fail in telling a kid where things come from. Her mother - friend of a friend, not an actual friend of mine - had made up some story of nuggets being dug out the ground, like carrots.

    She might have been. At least she was eating chicken menstruation.

    Put a tissue over your nose. Press your other nostril close with your fingers through the tissue. Close your mouth and blow gently but hard through your non-blocked nostril until there's no more sruff coming out. Repeat with the other nostril. Throw the tissue in the trash and sanitize your hands. :)

    While he was getting ready for work one of our surgeons let his little daughter put small stickers all over his face. Of course before entering the hospital he removed all of them. Or so he thought. He missed one and there he is visiting a patient he's about to perform surgery on and there's the little sticker he missed for everyone to see. And you can bet that none of the nurses told him it was there. Neither did his patients. He just wondered why they were looking at him so strangely.

    Each time he does it, ignore him. Worked for me with my parents, when I went through the hysterical laughter phase.

    Not at that level but I don’t want to see the new one. I have such fond memories of the circonstances in witch I saw this movie that I prefer to just reminisce and be happy about the experience.

    I still remember doing a presentation for school when I was about 12 and someone in the class replying "Huh?" after every sentence I said. Someone told him to knock it off after a while, though.

    Also ask yourself if you enjoy using the toilet alone, I say this because my 24 year old daughter still thinks it’s perfectly acceptable to come and talk to me mid pee, THERE ARE NO BOUNDARIES no matter how old they get!

    The alternative is to have privacy but not an adult child who considers you her next bestie. So I have a Bathroom Buddy.

    Clean water, with no back wash. That was a shock the first time I watched that happen with a bottle of water.
