[quote=Anonymous]Tell her "we do not do that here".  We had one friend who NEVER disciplined her DD.  It got to a point that her DD was constantly doing age inappropriate behaviors, no one wanted her DD around. It was just too stressful and the mom never did anything about it, the mom refused.  In fact, the mom encouraged it!  She was doing the DD no favors, because all children need boundaries.

I have no patience for lazy parents who encourage bad behavior, under any excuse.  PPs are correct, the behaviors may change, but without boundaries, the parents who fail to discipline are setting themselves up for DISASTER in the later years.  It does NOT get better!

The PP who claimed that disciplined children act out must have been abused.  Children who are properly disciplined know boundaries.  It really is not that difficult for most reasonable people to comprehend.

Don't tell me I can't discipline your kid at my house when you sit there and encourage it, that is for SURE!

My house, my rules.
