Parents hide-out

  This group is for people who are having problems with their children. Maybe someone has had the same problem that you are struggling with and found the perfect solution to it. At the moment I am finding things very difficult with my step-children, 13 & 14 Year old's and I was wondering how big a stick to beat them with. Lol.

  Drop in and lets talk about them without someone saying, "Whatever," As my kids do.

hi Udecide - added: 2008-02-13 00:00:00

To be honest I have tried every single method I know of and others I read or found on the net. So far nothing has worked and my wife and I have to stand by and watch our house be not so slowly destroyed. Last week it was a big wall mirror in the kitchen a bedroom door smashed beyond repair and a kit »

Ian After Reading last post wondering how you are doing - added: 2008-02-11 00:00:00

Hi Ian, I was reading your last entry about your first day of work. I sense a lot of resentment and anger, and I am curious as to who you are blaming? Ian it begins with unconditional love, and it begins with you. The only person you can change is yourself. The amazing thing in all of this is when y »

Then to top that he waited until I had set off to work and went back into the house with no intention of going to school. It didn't come as a »

Ungrateful children - added: 2008-01-15 00:00:00

Since I came back home to my family I have tried to sort out the house and decorate it after my wifes two children destroyed it. But I am wasting my time.

This morning I spent far toooo long trying to get the children to do stuff around the house. Unfortunately it seems to fall on deaf ears so I am thinking about taking away thier new bikes until they agree to help. Is that a good idea or a bad one????? »

Hi Udecide - added: 2007-12-24 00:00:00

To be honest I am not too sure how to use this new fangled internet thingy myself. Just read your post and I will start tracking both of those books down straight away. As things stand now it is a very hostile enviroment because they have been allowed to go wild. I do care very much for them both an »
