What is wrong with parents today?

I love the one's who say "my child doesn't lie". Yeah right!!!! Everyone lies, and any parent who can't recognize that little darling lies is raising a brat. I have one who has a face like glass, everything shows, the other might have a career in which lying is integral....politician, mob boss, pyscho killer, lawyer.......thank god he's a good kid.

My DD and a boy in her class were constantly at it. DD was always complaining about him. So on field day the boy's mother showed up. I walked up and introduced myself.

"Hi! (holding out my hand) I thought I should introduce myself since I suspect we;ll be in-laws or in court some day!"

First she looked shocked then I said I'm ****'s Mom."

Her eyes got wide and then she laughed, she said Oh the things I hear about her!

And we talked about it as a two sided issue and that both of us were onto it. Better still was when the two of us approached the kids together both of their eyes went wide!!

My DD is also 8. I think she has a crush on him and he is not interested but likes the attention..... They could be 28 and the story would still look the same!

I love it.

I always picked the battles I thought my DS needed some mom power with. But most of time it's just kids being kids. I only had to go to school once for my DS behavior... he was in trouble, but the snotty brats that started the face making and name calling toward him were in no trouble

..her mommy was a teacher at the school

. So I ripped the teacher a new one for allowing it. Her reply "well I didn't know precious was doing that". Well if you had asked my DS he would have told you she did. But she never even asked his side of the story

( I couldn't stand that woman or the dumb flat hat she wore).​

Sorry the other mom is such a jerk, but it could be that the other kid has issues or something. Not just a crush. Im 13 and my whole 8th grade year I always had it out with, actually since 6th grade. Now I know im not perfect either but she has issues! First off I DO NOT tolerate people who think they know it all and think that they can just boss you around and be better than you and thats what she is. Constanly this girl tries to take my friends from me and lied to teachers stating that I HIT HER and SHE IS AFRAID TO GO TO SCHOOL BECAUSE OF ME and all this crap. Ill admit I have taken a swing at her in self defence because she does try to slap and punch me, and Get this! She is originally from COLORADO and moved here when she was 5. She never got over it. She says OH NM sucks because at her old school she was accused of CRIMES that were actually happening to her. Now im pretty sure this never happened or she really did do something wrong. As far as my mother and I am concerned she has issues and she decided to take it out on me. The worst part is that I ACTUALLY TRIED TO BE HER FRIEND THIS YEAR

. I would ask for help in spanish and she would help. Then it turns out she IS a backstabber who just wanted me in trouble or expelled.

Sorry this is so long I finally had a chance to rant and here it is. Plus you are not alone!!! Some people are jerks and thats all there is to it

I'll be the first to admit it if my kids are being brats.​

LOL I feel I can say this, working in Social Services and all... They dont beat their kids enough!

Its our funny thing to say around the office whenever Child Protection is around

I tell people that my kids are rowdy and that if they need to scold them by all means scold them! Different ppl have different rules and my kids need to know that they should follow the rules of the house we are in at the moment!

I'm a teacher at my sons' school, and every kid there knows if there's an issue, they are free to come to me during break. My kids don't dare step outta line as there's a few dozen kids waiting to tattle on them.

Don't know if this will help or not but my dd was tormented by the class bully for an entire year --4th grade. We started out with going to the teacher ( a joke), then to the principal ( more of a joke). We did not even consider going to the child's mother since she is nothing but a piece of trash living in an upscale neighborhood. The child verbally and mentally abused my child and the next to last week of school took her fist and punched her in the back and nothing was done. My child tried to be nice to the other girl, tried to stay away from her to no avail. My dd was a honor roll student who grades went to C's, I kept close tabs on her as she does have my blood--I did not want her committing suicide to get away from that demonic child. We got her involved in sports and dance to keep her mind off things at school. Come to find out there was another incident at this very same school involving at NCSHP daughter and it got so bad that he took out a restraining order against the boy messing with her--wish we had thought of that. We will not be at the school next year, thank God. TPTB at the school felt like the little demon needed help since her home life was so unstable but at my child's expense.
I know this probably did not help but I know what it is like to have your child blamed for anything that goes wrong between them and another student. Yes, my dd did pull some boners but it was to get attention from the very people at the school that she thought loved her.
