Great show for parents of infants to see what not to do and how to avoid raising monsters. I have done fine without it but I wish some of the parents I deal with would watch and learn.

It's called common sense. I don't need some fat British bitch to tell me how to raise kids.

Perhaps he should send his 11 year old to the Naughty Corner?

You might not but you might be stunned at the number of parents who do.

The parents could use the time of reflection that accompanies the naughty corner.

Funny, I have talked to real people who have. What he show illustrates is eventual outcome of giving in or giving up.

Off topic, but everyone should get their kids into a sport or other activity or two that will give them something to do other than video games. I don't care if it's a sport, scouts, fishing, hunting, etc. Anything is better than video games. My kids get a half an hour of the wii if they are REALLY good and schoolwork and sports practice is done. Make time to take them fishing, exploring, or whatever it takes.

Seriously, though...get rid of the video games. He's eleven and he's disconnecting from you. That's a really bad sign. More father/son time and less individual free play.

We have many conversations and I spend as much time with them as possible. I do think these video games have been a big problem... and his mom is sooooooper ****ing lenient with him on the disciplines that I set forth. I'm beginning to think I need to get rid of her on Craigslist. |

Honestly, all of our parents said the same shit about video games. We all turned out okay. I'd be way more concerned with the internet myself. But I don't have kids. So what the hell do I know?

The only thing that he really does on the internet is study HTML, CSS and Javascript via video tutorials and stuff. So, I may let him earn that time back... |
