Thanks justkeepswimming13, I appreciate the support! I can understand your job and kids not listening and then parents do just give kids whatever they want a lot of times! Parenting can be tough and it is tougher when your own parents do not respect you as being the parents! We went to an indoor waterpark/resort hotel close to where we live last weekend and this older boy was trying to push my son who is 16 months old out of the way on a slide and I started yelling at the kid, luckily his mom did yell at him too then and took him out for a time out (I felt bad then that I had yelled, but I just said "Hey" really loud when I saw him pushing my kid), but you are right, some parents do not even care what their kids do! It's sad..... I try talking to me dad each time we have these sqabbles over my daughter, but he usually does not listen! It is really hard sometimes because it i so obvious that he favors my daughter over my son that he yells at my son if he even looks like he is going to touch something he should not, but my daughter can do just about anything!
