[quote=Anonymous]We have a similar situation in our family except it's my cousin's kids. We don't allow them to speak that way to us. When they're rude, we simply say "I'm sorry but when you speak that way, I can't understand what you're saying". If they want something it's "I'm sorry but until you can ask nicely, I can't give it to you". We don't let them be mean to our kids either. When play gets beyond the ability of our kids to handle, we separate the kids and tell them they since they can't play well together, they'll play separately. I don't see it as disciplining my cousin's kids. I see it as setting healthy boundaries. But, it's important to keep your tone matter of fact with no emotion.[/quote]
