My kids also rarely got a spanking, usually talking or time out worked, but not always.

Butter, look up studies of 'an only child' and then tell me if you agree with them.

Also when he turns 13, write another post about it.


theanel,
I know what you mean about stubborn.

As for wearing Walmart clothes, mine already do that. Who can afford anything else?


Interesting. So "an only child" is destined to become a brat at 13, no matter what? Post the studies, please.

And your quote:

You have two degrees. Shouldn't you have a good enough job to afford nicer clothes? Hahahaha!

Sorry, I'm truly over that little snot throw on the other thread, but I just couldn't resist. Wink Big Grin


Yes, I see where you find that amusing. No, I did not say an only child would grow up to be a brat, studies did. For personal experience I have a niece who is rude, selfish, and bratty, her parents see no wrong.
Now, of course you disagree, but you see that is the point. Studies may or may not be right.
Just like having two degrees did not guarantee me a good paying job.
As for clothes, I see no reason to pay for a 'name' when the same thing is made with out one. Kids can bow to peer pressure or you can teach them that the inner person is what matters. I only had one time when one of my kids asked for a name brand. I bought one shirt of it. He hated it.

End of peer pressure. Enjoy your son while small, they grow into different entities at puberty.
