basic parenting skills. It burns me up when I see people saying things like, "My child won't let me put a coat on them when it's 20 below zero outside". Or "How can get my child to stay in bed, they don't want to go to sleep and it's 2 in the morning." And, "My toddler refuses to stay strapped in her carseat..." It just drives me crazy when parents refuse to be parents! Our kids have enough friends and buddies, they need guidance and boundaries from their parents. But what always shocks me even more, is the number of people that provide them advice that just masks the real issue, "give them candy, just put more layers of clothes on, tell them you will buy them a toy, blah blah blah"! Sorry, I'm ranting, but I can't take it anymore today. Anybody else feel me on this? Please, I'm begging you, show me there are responsible, sensible people out there who know what it takes and do what it takes to be a parent, hahahahahaha.
