[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Actions have consequences. I started with manners from the get go. I had one son who thought it was funny to snort like a pig so one night I set up a card table and told all three children that a time who ate like a pig would sit at the piggy table. Of course, "piggy" son laughed and started snorting. I picked. Up his plate, no silverware, and poured his milk into a bowl and told him to feel free to eat like a pig. It only happened once and after that all three used their table manners and knew that other social manners also had to be observed People are judged by their manners. [/quote] PP, you are cray-cray. People are judged for their harshness towards little people who are in their power. My children have beautiful manners. We did it with consistency, kindness, and modeling. [/quote]
