My wonderful Mother-in-Law gave me an outstanding piece of advice...
"repeat yourself like its the first time your saying it" It took me a while to understand how this actually worked. I discovered that kids/boys/men only hear every 4th word, so you NEED to repeat everything. I also found the softer you speak the more intensly others listen. |

I totally agree with you cookie, If you yell, demand, or insult they are
not going to hear you at all. Are you being sarcastic there O? I dont think I repeat myself a lot do I? lol |

ONTARIO... we are talking about teenagers.... they do not need anymore
encouragement. NO cuddling. |

then it is ok to be a little louder to get the excitment going.

My kids are 21(son) and 16(daughter)and I learned a LONG time ago to
lower my voice if I wanted to really be heard. Of course it's not a pleasant lowering and usually through gritted teeth but they started calling it "the voice" and I've found it works on others besides my kids. When I need to get my point across to some asshole I use "the voice" and it usually gets their attention..... especially when accompanied with "the look" LOL |

I am 45, hope to grow up soon. I think teens are out of control because
you cant spank thier little butts when they are 5 and they dont lesarn to respect adults. |

Cooky...what are you saying...Boys and Men never listen...?
|

There are exceptions to that theory that men never listen. They do
listen, they just dont hear every word that is spoken. I am sure some women are the same. I have been accused of not hearing. my excuse is that the subject just want interesting enough to pay attention too. I have a guy friend who can resite back to me every word I say to him... his problem is that he has short term memory loss. |

I dont think spanking or grounding works, I think talking to them and
being open about natural consequences both positive and negitive work. Sometimes I want to lay my kids across my lap and spank them but it is something I dont think works at all. |

Oh Shagna,
I have to dissagree with that one. Lets say spanking doesnt always work but it does work better than talking sometimes. My parents had 6 kids and manage to keep them all out of trouble and drugs with a good ass whooping when we needed it. I did as well with my kids although once you give them a good one and the threat of future ones makes talking a whole lot easier. Lol |

Shagna spanking may return to haunt you ...some say it leads to
domestic violence...! |
|

I just think it is all about communication, and hope you displayed a
positive role model and instilled good morals. |

Shagna communication is what it is all about there is nothing that I
have not talked to my kids about and been very open minded with them about life we still talk. Actually my son & I are the closest we still talk about every thing lol yes I still bring the sex issue up with him. But you have to keep the communication open. |

I tend to agree,"COOKIE",,,my grandfather said to me when I asked th
same Q's...but in his soft country manner,,,WALK SOFT,SPEAK QUIETLY but carry a big stick when you can't whoop 'em any more....M |
