Pants down, over the lap, for a good spanking

They want your attention. Play with them, read to them, keep them entertained: this is your job as their mother.
if you do this then for a certain portion of each day they should be able to entertain themselves but it depends how old they are.
Mothering is more than cooking tea and ironing uniforms.
Once you get in to doing things with your kids you will realise it is fun. After you have done this, then praise loudly and enthusiastically all good things they do and ignore as far as possible any unwanted behaviour. They soon realise how they prefer it.
Leave the computer and any activities that require your full attention away from them until they are in bed.
Good luck!
Also do watch supernanny/nanny 911. You will see there is a pattern that most featured families fall into and that whether we like it or not it is most often the parent at fault not the child.

Me too!
I have three young daughters,ages 6 ,3, and 11 months old!
My three year old is the worst mis behaving one of all!
Then my 11 month old then my six year old.
I too don't know what to do .
All I do is tell them to stop ,and if that don't work then I tell my husband to take them, out side if I'm busy trying to cook or clean.
My mom says to me :
"Have patience!,in a few years you'll be wondering where the time went!"
And you know what? she's right because already I'm remembering when I gave birth to my first daughter six years ago,and it seems like longer than that!
Depending on how old yours are ,Ican't say if this is a good idea but if they are old enough ,try hideing from them for a while and have them come looking for you.
They will soon find out that your hideing because your sick and tierd of the screaming and mis behaving!
Thats what I do some times,I'll step out side the side door for some fresh air all by my self .And a few minnutes later my kids come looking for me and ask what I'm doing and I tell them that I had to step out side because they were getting on my nerves!
Just don't stay out side for too long ,and by all means ,make sure they are safe and you don't have any thing on the stove before you do.
Good luck!
And remember ,stay strong!

removal of TV, Games ,sweets, etc. if they are old enough then talk to them about it and let them know it upsets you. smacking them will not solve anything but if possible separate them. As for "supernanny/nanny 911" these programs have some good tips but as a parent of four young kids myself I know where you are coming from it can be really hard sometimes my Daughter and son are constantly screaming at each other but as soon as the removal of privilege is mentioned they soon toe the line good luck.

some people just don't have a clue do they!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have 3 kids too, none stop arguing. Mine are 3 girls 13, 12 and 10, I find that if I can split them up in some way there is much less arguing, the eldest has her friend round at the moment are are listening to music upstairs, sometime they go out to another friends house, my other two I can then either let them play on game system together or give them jobs, washing up, baking, delivering xmas cards.
I know what you mean, good luck. Oh, try www.neopets.com for your kids, this might occupy them for a while.

I think your kids are screaming for some discipline and limits. Be the mom and take control of the situation. I got a lot of ideas from that guy on tv who disciplines dogs. I couldn't believe what people let their dogs get away with. Kids too.

Start actually disciplining them and STICK WITH IT.
Don't say "go into the corner for an hour" then let them loose after 15 minutes. or don't say that then let them run around you.
more information. how old are the kids? do you actually discipline them or do you let them run the house? (I'm guessing the latter). where's the dad or dads?
Take off their bedroom door, throw all their beloved toys into toys for tots or something, take away their cellphone, BE A PARENT.
more details needed though.

Cut put all sweet thing sor things that are deemed treats and make them earn them with good behaviour but one only noy a whole pack.
Cut out as much processed food as you can (hidden sugars etc can spark mood changes)
Introduce a sticker chart system for good behaviour or tasks completed with a special toy or comic as a reward when a certain number of stickers have been won.
Dont shout or lose your temper as they will follow your behaviour.
Good luck.

You should read this book called 123 Magic...it's for parents who have a hard time ruling their kids. You need to remember that your the parent and they are the child, it's as simple as that. This book helped me a lot with my son who has ADD and can be unruly. Since I've implemented what the book said, my son and everyone in the family is happier! This book was recommended by my sons pediatric develop-mentalist.
Good Luck

stop all comforts like tv play stations treats till they learn to behave it may take a while but it does work i used to do it with my two when they were younger also use your voice in a more assertive way too if you have a partner both of you do it together as a team ....... good luck
