[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I disagree.  Plus disappointment is apart of life.  It's unfortunate but may as well get your kid used to it now.  My daughter had a sleep over for her birthday and one of the moms cancelled due to her daughter's bad behavior.  Yes I was disappointed but I wasn't about to get upset over her properly parenting her child. Bad behavior does not deserve a reward. [/quote]

It genuinely surprises me how few people in this thread think this. I’m with you. If my kid is acting like a jerk, I will not regard them with outings and play dates. If that’s a bummer for your kid then that sucks but I’m responsible for raising MY kids. [/quote]

It's not an either or here though is it? You can surely find another way to punish or discipline your child that doesn't punish somebody else.?

I remember very clearly being in eighth grade and heading over to a sleepover party with a sense of dread. my mom let me go because we had committed to it but I knew the punishment was coming the next day.

So your mom found another way to punish you,  still et you go to the sleepover, and still you’re complaining. [/quote]

So clearly the alternative punishment worked. Which is exactly what it was supposed to do.[/quote]
