[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 620525, member: 1233"] Oh, janet, I agree that the belt should be used on DADDY. WTH is his problem? NO child should be allowed to have her way all the time. PERIOD. And if he is yelling at the oldest one over what the little one does? That is all sorts of messed up! I have NEVER seen a situation turn out well when a child was not told no in a consistent and loving way as a toddler. This is NOT the child's fault, but eventually the kid pays the price. Other kids won't be friends with them, they end up in major trouble, and usually other problems end up happening and the end is a totally miserable kid/teen/adult who has no idea why she is miserable and no one likes her. Given your family genetics, this is going to be a HUGE issue for the toddler when she is older if Daddy doesn't pull his head out and start parenting her. I am serious. Get Daddy a copy of Love and Logic Magic for Early Childhood. Take just him out somewhere for coffee and sit and talk. Tell him you are really worried because he refuses to set limits for the toddler and it is destroying the house, your relationship with the child and his relationship wtih monkey who thinks he does not love her because he yells at her for stuff the little one does. Make it a wake up call and let him know that if it continues, it will literally destroy his daughter's life and cause her many years of problems. Give him the book and tell him, flat out, that he is a better parent than this and you know it because of how he parented Monkey. I hope once the move happens that things will settle down for you.
