[QUOTE="Lammie, post: 673924, member: 3306"] I love it when teens throw tantrums and I have see my share in my position at the school. Thing is, when you don't feed into it, it stops. And if you teach your kids from an early age, and I mean early, they won't do it because they know that there is no reward in it. I know some of these parents. They say they hate behaviors like that, but then again, they tolerate it because they can wear that tee shirt that says, "My kid is soooo abusive and sooo bad. What will I [i]ever[/i] do?" And my standard answer to that is, "Nothing. You did nothing." You didn't parent your kid by giving them rules and boundaries. If you do nothing, expect it in return. My kids are both gamers but the games end when grades suffer and you ignore your responsbilities around the house. My younger son doesn't play that much any more. He's too busy with tennis and band. And he starts his Ag classes this fall. Keep 'em busy. [/QUOTE]
