My little boy (age 9) ALWAYS acts up every football season because my husband is away so much coaching.


Is this your biological child?

he's 9 years old. So I tell him to go to his room, that I am NOT taking him to the bank when he's out of control nor am I going to change my schedule for him. I have to help escort him to his room, then I head back to the mini-van.

9 year olds should never be left unattended no matter how mad you are at them, I know in my state that if a foster parent leaves a child under 12 alone it is grounds for removal.

This post really bothers me, I have been extremely upset with my children but I have NEVER even thought of leaving them at home alone, a bigger punishment would be to make them go when they didnt want to go.

I am sorry if I am looking in to this to much but it just sounds wrong....I know that kids can ruin a whole day with their attitudes but the bank would have been open the folowing Monday right?

I know if I would have seen something like this going on in my neighborhood I would have been on the phone with the child abuse hotline so quick it would have made any ones head spin.

Sorry if this offends any one I guess I dont understand how something like this could get so out of control.
