[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Neither of my kids would ever act like this.  [/quote]

I really loathe parents who are so convinced their precious snowflake would never misbehave and it's always somebody else's fault if they get in trouble. [/quote]

NP. I don't loathe you. Or even your thinking. But I do think some parents do not realize that there are kids who would literally never do this.

For example, when I was a kid. I would never do this because my parents were very strict and I would be mortified to damage another family's property. My kid is the same. I know this. And that's ok.[/quote]

I am very strict with my kid. If she misbehaves, there are consequences. But I'm not going to pretend that she'd never ever behave badly or could get swept up with the crowd or succumb to peer pressure.

And making sanctimonious comments about how my kid is better doesn't really contribute to the conversation.

I will never forget how one times when my kid misbehaved in preschool and I agreed with the teacher and we talked about consequences and how to correct that behavior. The teacher said she grateful that I didn't justify or defend my kids behavior which is what most parents do

OP: Is this normal with kids this age?
Posters: No, my kids don't this age wouldn't behave like this. Our sleepovers match your previous experience, and we don't think this is normal with kids this age.
You: You all are sanctimonious.

I said previously I was afraid of my parents. Do you think if my preschool teacher said I misbehaved, they would be in denial? Let's just say no. That would not have been the result.

Kids can be well behaved. That doesn't mean I wouldn't believe otherwise. I'd come down hard on them. That's how kids stay good.[/quote]
