Getting rid of your kids. RebeccaLuv: This is for parents of teenagers. What are some things your kid would have to do that would make it easy for you to throw them out? I will give you my story a bit later on, but I'm just wondering about other parents.  Casual_Observer: One would hope as a parent you would be working on having a strong, positive relationship with your children, and setting a good example in terms of how to be a good citizen, so that home is a supportive environment, not a battlefield. Giving them responsibilities within the home from an early age, giving them your time and love, and setting clear boundaries (and enforcing consequences as needed), are a good start. Better to start with the view that you won't ever get to the point of throwing your child out of the house, which is the sign something has gone very wrong. RebeccaLuv: Well rambo, you didn't say much. bad stuff varies from person to person. And Casual, I totally agree with you, it shouldn't be a first reaction and before things ever got that far, there would have been warning signs.  rambo jambo: I meant something like murdering innocent people..... anything else no matter what can be forgiven or made up for over time.  The giant midget:  where do I start????Stop cooking with cheese Cut internet If they can't afford cell phones they don't need one If my cleaning lady still needs 2 days a week to clean a 4 bedroom house I don't need my grown kids in the house If my laundry lady still needs a full day a week to wash clothes I don't need my grown kids in the house If I still need to pay a contractor to maintain the lawns and clear the snow around the house I don't need my grown kids in the house If they work full time and have no student loans to pay for, drive their own SUV's that I payed for including their insurance and maintenance and occasionally still pays for gas fill ups. I don't need my grown kids in the house Its frustrating at times but I wouldn't change it any time soon Maybe when the youngest one is 30 years old I will kick them out Shit that's another 10 year's GothGye: I think people need to understand that having kids is a bit like going into a supermarket. Yeah you can walk in and go look for 2 minute noodles, but what about checking out what type of ice cream they have in the frozen section? We can all pat a blind dog , but does that really mean we should put make up and a dress on it and try to fly it around the world in a helicopter??... Hella no. But the point is -just take a walk to the local gas station and buy two packets of chewing gum and I think you'll find the answer you've been looking for  AretoNyx: Room mates, kids , spouses, ...well relationships are what they are. Having issues get counselling. Just saying. | Parenting Chat Room 13 People Chatting Similar Conversations |
