BTW, research shows that hitting them makes it worse, actually. Most of the real screamers I know get wolloped on a daily basis.

My mother used a switch and the last thing in the world I would of ever thought about doing was screaming in retaliation.  Apparently those parents aren't proficient in beating their children correctly.  I should send my hag of a mother by to teach them properly.

Child services must be vastly different in other states than it is in RI.  My best mate's Da works for DCYF and more often than not the children get returned to the parents because state care is worse.  If the child does end up in state care group homes they end up abused and/or raped. 

Yes, well, you wouldn't scream at her. The kids I'm talking about come to school and behave like feral beasts. They behave perfectly for their parents, because they know if they don't they'll get thrashed. So YES it's an effective deterrent in so far as it stops the parent from having to listen to the hideousness, but it's certainly not an effective behaviour modifier when the parent isn't around.

Especially since as a teacher we don't have that power. Not that I'd want to hit my students - but detention becomes a bit of a laughable punishment to someone who would normally get beaten with a jug-cord for not eating their peas. 

Your mum sounds like she needs a whack with the jug-cord herself.

Top of the page? Sorry, running out of screenshots.

my favorite punishment was sending my child to the corner and making them sit with their nose in a circle drawn there for however minutes they were old (2 mins for 2 yeaar old, 5 for a 5 year old etc). Or if I was REALLY pissed I sent her to her room to just sit, no toys, tv, nothing, just sit. Was more for cooling off myself as well as giving her time to cool off.

My dad used to spank us a little but after my little idiot brother did something he knew he was going to get in trouble for (I don't even remember what) and said that dad was going to suffocate him - not sure where he got that from I think he just meant that dad was going to kill him - at the daycare we were at one of the well-meaning workers called child services. Needless to say, it freaked my dad out so much that he stopped spanking us and started making us stand in the corner instead.



Actually, given how boring that was I think I preferred the spanking...

Don't they get suspended for randomly screaming constantly?

Suspending kids from school is much, much more difficult than people think it is. At least it is here in Sydney in the public system. The things they have to do to get suspended are so extreme it's ridiculous.

I'm intending to watch it now it's over, too. I heard all about the finale, but that actually makes it better to me. It makes it less stressful.

I hardly sleep at night, either. Usually I don't end up eating dinner until midnight or 1am. It helps that I set my own work hours 

[sylvanaerie]

yea I am a stay home mom so its pretty much the same for me too. I sleep, then wake bout 1-4 am and then go back to sleep around 5 or 6 am for a couple more hours shut eye.

[sabreene]

I usually end up going to sleep around 5 or 6, when I notice it's getting light outside and I'm like, 'oh crap, I forgot to go to bed!' Then I get up around noon and don't start working until probably about 1:30 or 2pm. And since I don't usually eat my first meal until then, my whole day just sort of shifts. Breakfast at 2pm!

I love this little smile the Bannhammer gives you.

[Xandurpein]

Looking at some of your posts I have to admit I feel that I had a very, very lucky childhood. My dad never laid a hand on me and I can probably count the times he got really mad at me. Usually what happened if I did something really stupid, was to walk two laps around the block to cool himself down, before he even spoke to me.



I can't say I'm quite as good as that, but the worst thing I ever done to my kids is to withhold a weeks allowance or restrict computer time, and they certainly are damn sight nicer kids than those who have stricter parents, or so their teachers tell me.

SQUEEE!!  OMG he's so fricckin adooooorable! 

[nos_astra]

So let me SQUEEEEEEE for a moment because my Alistair morph has just reached perfection!
I'm using Dragon Age Redesigned 7.0 including Dracomies True Textures. Used the latter to change Alistair's eye color from vanilla hazel to true texture hazel2 and ... OMG ... wow.

I couldn't change his eye color before but from hazel to hazel2 is a no brainer. Of course it looks a lot lighter because the vanilla eye colors are unnaturally dark which made look hazel like brown.



And while I was at it I changed Breanna to DTT dark green too and gave her salmon colored lips.

Need to play them now. They are sooooooooo beautiful.

Hmmm I really like Yukistair and Maricstair...but let me see what we got here...Links? to Dracomies and DAR?

Dragon Age Redesigned is really nice, it has many improvements to a lot of characters. But Dracomies still won't touch Alistair because he has too much personality. (But he turned Anders into a pretty boy. ^^ I delete some of the morphs after installation.)

The eye colors can be applied via toolset only.

Wow, they are both just ridiculously attractive. I'm considering lightening some facial lines of Maricstair, but still don't think I can hang with any adjusted facial features. It's like the uncanny valley at this point.

[nos_astra]

I have a Maricstair version, too. Ignore Breanna, she just can't get enough of him. ;-)



Maybe I should put them up for download, but they would still require the textures installed or they would look like Yuki's 12-year-old elf girl. ^^

On the topic of childrearing. I never got hit as far as I can remember by my parents (during childhood). Only raised by mother, who never punished me as far as I can remember. I think that me and my brother behaved because we felt kind of bad for her.

And the only parent that I've fought is my father, but that is due to him being an idiot.

Edit:

I had an awesome childhood. I was the youngest sibling and even though I had the hand-me-downs and such, I have no bad memories of anything. My parents were determined to not give us the ****ty life they had as kids.

HA! I like them actually, just not hearing the same story ten times in a row.

Edit: Topper and I want to atone so no Alistair here.
