What child rearing comments did your parents use that you wouldnt use with your kids?

Question

Here are mine. My parents said these.

1. If you do that again, your a$$ is mine.
2. If you do that again, your a$$ is grassed. (Whatever that means)
3. If you do that again, I'll knock your teeth down your throat.
4 If you do that again, I'll stick my boot up your A$$.
5. You are as worthless as t!t$ on a boar hog.

There's a few of them. Man I wouldnt dream saying those. What comments did your parents use?

Answer 1

i feel sorry for you did your parents really say those things,mine said,if you keep pulling that face and the wind changes direction,it will stay that way

Answer 2

Mine took a different road> it was....You will sit there till you eat every bite!!!!! ( I got to witness my grandmother fall off a ladder and injure herself very badly...still cant eat that particular food!!)
also, my older sister telling me You are so ugly, and stupid, you cant do anything right. We all hate you. These methods did not work ,of course, what did was my father saying ..."I would rather you did not do that..but it is up to you. I will be very disappointed if you do though" The best form of discipline is a good ,loving relationship between child and parent.
The phrase went> ' your *** is grass and I'm the lawn mower". (older sister again, boy did we go the rounds!! I had to hide in the attic under the eaves where she was too big to get in there so she couldn't hit me.. but I got my licks in also, She laid down on the floor to roll with laughter one time...so I stepped on the back of her hair and yanked up on the front with all my might...and ran laughing with glee to the attic to wait for my parents to get home.) Even bad parents teach their kids how to behave...they learn to be just the opposite!

Answer 4

1. Stop crying, or I'll give you something to cry about.
2. You're asking for a knuckle sandwich!
3. I brought you into this world, I'll take you out.

Answer 5

I will never tell my child:
1. ...because I said so, that's why.
2. You look like you're asking [to get raped] dressed like that.
3. I love you, but I don't like you right now.

But the worst was when they said nothing at all.....

I will never be that parent.

Answer 6

This hurts me more than it hurts you,Dont make me come over there,Im counting 1,2...........I dont know I can't remember all of them.Sounds like your parents were pretty mean to you.I'm glad that you have decided not to make that same mistake with your children.I can tell that it has stayed with you but you sound like you got it together.Good luck to you!

Answer 7

I remember my father saying "I don't have much confidence in you". Now, 40 years later, my son says I have more issues than National Geographic. Wonder why?

Answer 8

I think the worst thing my Father ever said was "To think...I actually talked your mother out of getting an abortion." We still laugh about that.

Answer 9

Your Cousin was always better at that.
I'm warning you to keep your mouth shut.
When I was wee... Young one's had respect for their elders...

Basically, anything that puts your child down, should not be said!!

Answer 10
