I often look at my kids and think where the hell did I go wrong? They fight most of their time together. Sometimes I just stammer when trying to discipline them. Saying "what made you think that was a good idea?" I'm pretty sure they don't know why they do half the things they do. I think children live on base guttural instincts. I want, I take. Most of the time what they want is my time, my space or my brain power. I liken them to leaches sucking me dry. Let me set the record straight I LOVE my children more then anything in the world. I would do anything for them but I do need a shred of dignity right?
So how do I discipline off center? I have NO idea do you? So how will I get there? Right now I'm trying to dump everything I have learned and then pick and wade through the mess. What really works and what have I been told works but is a great big lie that will never work in my life!
So today I being sifting gently through the carnage in hopes that somewhere I have learned or created a parenting tactic that works 50% off the time. I'm a realist if I hit 50% I will pat myself on the back and you should too!
