Jellyfish Parenting

Do you agree That some parents have become spineless jellyfish afraid to discipline their children?

The worst mistake a parent can do is try to be a "friend".
Reach down and grab a pair or at least scatch the phantom outline where they used to be and dicipline your children when they do wrong. I am sick and tired of people rewarding bad behavior and they wonder why their kid is throwing a temper tantrum in the toy aisle at Wal-mart. Even worse they give in and buy the toy to shut the kid up.
I have seen "Fathers" that my 3 year old is more of a man than. At least he is polite.
Simple solution,(warning logical content ahead.) Leave the store. Is shopping that important that you can't do it later when you child is better behaved?
Their are other punishment then spanking.
and yes I do have kids.
I work retail and I would rather put away a cart full of stuff then deal with a brat scraming and crying.

I agree with your thought on this and if the parents would only look to see what their right are concerning correcting their children they would know. I had a 8 year old son that acted up no matter where I went and even in the big department stores and so I contacted the child abuse hot line back in 1980's and just recently for my grand children to find out what the correct punishment would be fot them acting up. I was told that a good strong hand to their bottom would work or a time out in a chair. I have also put them in a corner for a hour or so and removed all the things from their rooms to let them know that we as parent are responable to raise them, feed them, give them shelter and try to educate them the best that we can. In the Bible in certain area's it states that if a son disrepects a parent he shall be brought in front of the elders and if it is bad enough could be stoned. I feel this is a little harsh and should not be done to no one at all. I feel that if a parent has courage enought to teach a child right from the beginning that there is a time to have allot of fun with their parent but when the parent is stern and tells that child they mean business. This is when the child learns that they are to listen to the partent or something will happen or things that they like or like to do will be taken away. I hope that you can find a better way to a more understanding way to teach the parents that they are in chare and not the children. God Bless and great question
