She had carefully laid out their nutricious/balanced dinner including a small portion of sliced apples for their fruit of the day. Before their plates were clean, the boys announced they were finished and wanted to leave the table. Grandma Sue informed them that they would need to eat the sliced apples before they left the table. The response of Luke was: "Grandma Sue we like it when you come to take care of us but we don't like your table rules!" Grandma Sue melted and did not try to enforce her unpopular table rule. Granparents are supposed to spoil their grandchildren not dicipline them, right?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6903922807992470992.post-31077515716001783172008-02-19T21:16:00.000-06:002008-02-19T21:16:00.000-06:00The fact that is getting lost here is that Jim Edm...The fact that is getting lost here is that Jim Edmonds really could throw a rope from the fence to the plate. <BR/><BR/>Amazing how our kids know how to push our buttons...when my son and I are "battling" he asks me if there is a game on we can sit and watch together. He usually falls asleep in my arms and I carry him up to bed!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6903922807992470992.post-32972753463971318522008-02-17T12:52:00.000-06:002008-02-17T12:52:00.000-06:00Sounds like something Adam would do!

More often it's the lesson behind it, And that if sticks, everybody wins! Sometimes, delivering it with a bit of humor or along with something else that strikes home tends to make a bigger impression than a timeout. I give John 3 gold stars for Daddying. And I give Heather 5 gold stars for not stepping in and enforcing a timeout thus undermining John's work. WAY TO GO MOM AND DAD!Damama Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00433392172815959276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6903922807992470992.post-40781501393811419372008-02-13T09:59:00.000-06:002008-02-13T09:59:00.000-06:00LOL!
