i didnt see this here so now I will post here insted of Gen topics lol.
My two girls are 2 and 3 I just bought them a bunck bed set with two
dressers and a new kitchen set. They only seem to want to break all of
it nothing I do seems to help them with not wanting to break there
stuff. Time outs arnt working coner time is not working, I am feeling
deffeted. I just want to run away. I spent almost two grand on this stuf
and they dont understand money I know but what am I supoced to do?
They are well behaved when were out in public or when ppl come over but
when it is just me at home with em, they wanna walk all over me and what
I say, it's almost like they wake up and plot what can we do today to
make daddy mad... God I am losing my mind! this is what happened to day
I walked into there room to see what they were doing cause it kinda got
quite, a bad sign. I found my youngest daughter peeing in a dresser dror
with a buch of toys in it and all the clothes all over the floor. How do
I stop this kind of behavor

I am not a parent, but I do work around children -- and I bet the little
one who peed in the drawer is just acting out. I would always suggest
firm and gentle and loving parenting. Kids that switch houses can find
it hard to adjust from one house to another and sometimes it takes time
for them to understand the rules and boundaries of each house. If their
mother lets them get away with this kind of crap, it will always be hard
for you to be a firm parent. I say, just snuggle, cuddle, read, play
outside -- take them for walks and be patient -- and love them -- and be
a firm parent and don't let yourself get frustrated and mad. Good luck

My kids live with me full time they dont switch houses, this is all new
behavure I dont understand

Well, then it just could be their age. Do either of them have any
medical issues? If not, just be firm and patient -- I have heard of
little boys peeing because they were lazy in drawers -- but it is hard
to imagine a little girl doing that -- not to be mean to little boys!
Maybe she is afraid of the potty -- potty training might be hard at that
age -- so make sure her little potty is close and she feels good about
using it.

crazy, the next time one of your girls acts out or up, grab them and
give them a hug and tell them that you love them and don't understand
why they do these things and just keep talking to them.sooner or later
one will reveal why this is happening.but don't give up. they are the
most precocius thing in your life.i know i am a dad to 2 beautiful
girls,ages 15+8 who i talk with all the time.

thank you all very much for posting here, I think that maybe I just need
a break i am with em 24/7

just a night alone will do you wonders. a friend of mine was in the same
position as you crazy, just he had 2 boys. spent his whole life raising
the kids, dated very seldom. when his kids were out of school they
bought him a harley and told him thank you for always being there for
them. now he is a big man and he told me he cried like a baby. see it's
all worth it in the end.

You definitely need a break! Being a single parent is no joke and when
you've got 2 little ones so close together it makes it even harder. You
need to find someone you can trust to leave them with occasionally.
Even if it's just 1/2 hour so you can take a walk. This is for your
sanity, and so you can keep on being the great dad that you are. I know
exactly what you're going thru as I have 3 children, so send me a
message if you want to talk more.

ha ha (LOL) you are crazy!! live it, love it, own it is rightly yours
BUT try to laugh at it all sometimes cuz this is funny **** ! Take
photos, scrapbook etc. you'll be glad you did, my boy was a real
challenge at that age.. true story first picasso masterpiece was done in
doo-doo on the back of our bedroom door (im kinda a germ freak) and i
freaked! Now 5 yrs. later we laugh our asses off going through
imbarresing photos etc. he's really cool and i'd do it all over again
for him. Youll be ok but try buying second hand for awhile!

Thanks again evey one your advise is awsome! thanks again

& just because their girls don't make them stay clean. get them a sand
box to make mud pies with their kitchen. they were probably busy playin
& she had to go. if she is just ahh! getting house broke thats normal
she atleast got her clothes off. for on the beds i found that plastic
table clothes that have the soft matieral on the back work good. i had
2 girls stay with me that were from a bad home so they both wet the bed
at 4 & 7 what a mess then try to hide it. like i was going to beat them
it was so sad. anyways i just got a few of those their easy to wash &
they dont get the matress wet.
my daughter is 12 she still ends up with dirty socks in with her clean
clothes. i tease her its her draw fresheners & hse rides horses so their
gross it will only get better!

I have 3 kids and I know it is hard cause mine are 6,3, and 2 and they
are such a hand ful but with much encuragement they do pretty good but
at this age you just have to talk with them and make them understand
what they are doing is wrong but just lots of love and care.

i have a 10 year old with adhd and bipolar and a 7 year old let me tell
you though girls are alot harder to raise than boys i know i raised two
boys already ,my two girls are a handful mainly the 10 year old and when
they go to their daddys they come back worse than when they left think
they can push me around and tell me what to do. its hard to understand
why kids do what they do but yes they need lots of love and affection
even when you feel your at your witts end so plz dont give up on them
just keep loving them, and be thankful they dont have adhd and bipolar
thats when they are real hard to raise and understand.

I dont know if I would make a big deal out of a 2 year old urinating in
the drawer. She isnt fully trained at that age. I think you are
expecting alot out of them at such a young age. I also think your too
hard on yourself..

that is nothing!

wait til they turn 7 and take the 300 year old artprints you inherited
and rip them up on purpose!

i also recommend owning only larger pets til the kids become around age
12, so the pets have a better chance to live until age 1! ;)

Boy, crazy, u sure have youre hands full..god bless ya!! anyways, that
age is very, very hard..but then again as dontjustsayknow says, it can
be a pain as they get older too, especially in girls..i have a 9 year
old daughter who thinks shes 16..she can have a mouth on her and it
aggravates me alot sometimes..shes big for her britches if u know what i
mean. as for my 11 yr old son..hes the BIGGEST PIGG on this earth..he
wont clean up after himself..i have to constantly tell him to clean his
room..leaves crap everywhere..ya cant win..lol..other than that kids
will be kids unfortunately. and yes crazy give youreself a BREAK once
ina while..u need it or else u will go NUTS!!!!

Come by the church for a consultation.

Stay away from the Shep!!!!!!!!!!

If I had my children to raise all over again,
I'd finger-paint more and point the finger less.
I'd do less correcting and more connecting.
I'd take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my eyes.
I would care to know less and know to care more.
I'd take more hikes and fly more kites.
I'd run through more fields and gaze at more stars.
I'd do more huggung and less tugging.
I would be firm less often, and affirm much more.
I'd build self-esteem first, and the house later.
I'd teach less about the love of power,
and more about the power of love.

Answer your question?

thats great backinthesadle we can all use that advise ...hind sight.
