> [@Vrooom](#): > > In stores, holding hands works about 5% of the time. Trying to hold him is even worse. It’s more embarrassing to have to fight with him (meaning he beats the crap out of me) and chase him around then to have him walking on a “leash” feeling as though he has a bit more freedom. > > That said, I haven’t tried a leash yet so I’m only going on the hope that it would be a good solution. Now if we’re going for a walk around the neighborhood, he’s great about holding hands. He’s still just a little guy though…but with a mind of his own…I have a friend whose 1 year old still just sits around or will let you tote him around like a slug. lol now a stroller is a whole different thing. cant even use it anymore. she needs to be in control and walf everywhere. no sitting alowed. ---

To those saying it’s fucked up or sad…grow a pair of balls. The generation of our parents didn’t have kids going to school with guns like we go today…because the generation of our parents got their asses kicked when they talked back and misbehaved because THEIR parents didn’t have to worry about getting in trouble for tough discipline, and they learned their lessons through good old fashioned ass kickings. i LOL’d ---

charging someone for that is retarded. children are posessions, not priviledges. if the government cant run itself properly it certainly can’t raise someone elses kids properly. if my son we being a total dick head i would definately drag his ass through a store… maybe after a couple good draggings he wont fuck around ---

Kids are fun that way… when my daughter was getting ready for potty training @ ~1.5, the wife was in walmart and we call her underwear/diapers nickers. Guess what she yelled in the store… DIRTY NICKERS, DIRTY NICKERS, DIRTY NICKGERS… She had problems with the CK sound though. Sounded more like a G. All kids act up and push the boundaries. As soon as poor behavior is acceptable they stick with it. It can be really hard to wait them out sometimes. And sometimes it takes a wack on the ass. The punishment must fit the crime and they must not go unpunished. ---
