Good morning guys.
Door, thanks for sharing. That did take a lot of courage.

Gauche, I can't help but think about what they say dogs.
"There are no bad dogs, just bad owners" LOL.
My boss lady's husband is a controlling ass. He doesn't respect her. I see her kids treating her how their dad does.
And I bet they grow up and treat their wives the same way.

Oh, Door- about giving the uncontrollable bastards a hug every now and then?
I babysat my boss' 5 year old once. We colored, I made over how good of a job he was doing staying in the lines.
We played with the toys in my nephews toybox. The rule was when you get a toy out, it had to be put back before the next toy got brought out.
This kid listened to me.
I made a production over how good he had been.
And he was. He was a total different kid. I hugged him, he sat on my lap while we watched a movie.
I felt so bad about my 'misconception' of how bad he was.
The next time he was at the shop, I said hello to him, and he goes, "Shut up."

I guess I spoke too soon.
(But, then again, his mom was around.)

I suggest duct tape and a stun gun....just don't leave marks.

Hmm, this duct tape seems to be a reoccuring theme, LOL.
Sorry Abs, somehow I missed that you'd posted.

Stun gun? I have one of those! LOL.
I should start carrying it in my smock pocket, hehe.


On a slow Saturday afternoon a while back, we did duct tape boss lady's 11 year old son to a chair.
She was PISSED. He's the golden boy.
But it was all in fun, (Sort of, lol) and he let us do it.

Of course, he started yelling and putting up a fight. That's how mom found out, lol. And that's why she got pissed.
*Sigh* If only someone would have thought to put tape over his mouth.
Live and learn I guess.

Silently whispering threats in their ears helps too.

It's all in the child care book I'm writing. "Tips from Satan's Mommy."

OK here's how you get rid of the little get.

Dig out a copy of your local health and safety at work policy and point out that the person(s) in question have no training, no risk assessment and are not covered by her insurance.

Then make her sign a statement owning all culpability for anything that happens.

 

[EmeraldKitten]

Abs.. OMG I almost broke a rib laughing at that for some reason, lol.

Gauche, good idea.
I'm taking notes as we speak.

I would be pissed too kitten!

I for one never took my kids with me unless they were small enough to be in a car seat or old enough to sit and be quiet. My daughter now is old enough to help out. If Im getting a colour done, she will seperate the papers for the stylist. ( stylist is her best friends mom!)

I would think if this is an on going issue Id try something to help it out. Small tv and vcr for tapes etc. It could be put in an area that kids could sit in and watch quietly. Other then that, duct tape them to the frigging chairs!! lol

Good luck and dont bite your tongue too hard!
