I RECOMMEND NOT BUYING THIS PARENTING BOOK

esus, this heading goes under, "how not to speak to your child". The below quote pretty much says it all. Labels: Parenting
"Once again, I have made an ass of myself trying to get to a phone. You have insulted me for the last time! You are a rude, thoughtless pig. I don't give a damn that you're 12-year-old or 11-year-old, or a child, or that your mother is a thoughtless pain in the ass who doesn't care about what you do as far as I'm concerned...The crap you pull on me with this goddamn phone situation that you would never dream of doing to your mother, and you do it to me constantly over and over again!" The father added that he should fly to the west coast "for the day just to straighten you out on the issue."
The mother and her lawyer leaked this sealed material in violation of a court order. According to the father's comment afterwards, "acknowledges that he should have used different language in parenting his child, everyone who knows him privately knows what he has been put through for the past six years."
Some Hollywood divorce's can really get nasty. The people involved Alec Baldwin, his ex-wife Kim Bassinger and their daughter, Ireland.
Man, I am so glad people outside of Hollywood conduct their business in normal manners.Observations and Questions

ARE PARENTS GOING CRAZY?
W
hat is happening to our parents in this country? Recently two stories caught my eye and had me shaking my head. I forget now, but I am pretty sure both stories come from Florida... I can remember when we thought all the kooks lived in California... I think kookdom has moved to the Sunshine State. Labels: Parenting
The first story involved a first grader who had to being something into skool for Show n Tell. Everyone else brought in normal thinks like a doll or a play army tank... what did little Billy bring in? He brought in a rock... no, no not a normal rock... he brought in his mommy's rock of cocaine! Needless to say it caused a commotion in the school and mommy will be spending some time in the Big Doll House on the hill.
The next story is something else.... those of us parents hate telling our kids about the 'birds n bees' and actually avoid it at all costs. However, a woman in Florida and her boyfriend had a different approach with their 9 year old daughter. They decided having full-blown sex in front of her would help us understand. Apparently they showed her a few times.
The 9 year old on a visit to her father's house decided to tell him all she learned. The teaching couple were put on probation.
So any kid problems at your house? LOLObservations and Questions
