i don't usually watch it, but it happened to be on that channel. wow. that could have been us on there. my kids act the same way. they whine and cry and bully me into giving into them. i am having a very hard time with them right now, getting them to mind me. i now consistency is the key. but its hard! i tried time out but they won't stay. then they wanted to sit in time out! i send them to their room and they cry forever and ever. they don't QUIT. i'm at my wits end. i don't like to spank. i don't do it much. but sometimes it does get their attention. i just wish i had the patience (and the help from DH) to be more consistent and keep working at it. but he hates hearing them cry and fight and make any type of loud noises even if they are playing. so i have to do whatever i can to calm them down or else he yells at me. i'm sooooo overwhelmed.. but it was nice to know that there are other kids out there like mine, lol.
