[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm clearly new to this because my kid is only 4, but when I read DESTROYING, SMASHING, BREAKING I thought things were actually being ruined -- not assembled legos being taken apart.  I realize that they can take time to build,[b] but are we actually at a point where playing with legos (other than setting them up in one particular way) is considered ruining them?  [/b]

That's not to say these kids aren't brats.  Perhaps they are.  But the lego thing just shocked me.[/quote]

Yes. Disassembling a lego set that is put together (the complex ones can take HOURS and HOURS to do) without the permission of the owner is ruining it. Please teach your child this.

[b]OMG!!
Cut the dramatic![/b]
My kid Is a Lego freak and has a ton of Lego sets and knows to put them away,creations and all. If my child doesn't want them to be touched and if they are touched they get over it.
[b]Some of you need Xanax,[/b] it's line you cannot handle normal kid behavior or any behavior unlike your snowflake's behavior.
Set the rules when kids come over.
My child knows that's part of his responsibility to reinforce what our house rules are and if there's an issue come and get an adult and if he doesn't come and get an adult then the responsibility falls on him.
I have no problem sending a guest child to timeout or if worse comes to worse sending them home and as a parent I have enough respect for other adults to say hey just so you know this particular thing happened when your child was here and this is how we handled it I just want you to know because I would want to know.
[b]A lot of you are picky passive aggressive babies[/b].[/quote]

Yeah, uh, that thing about cutting the dramatics and Xanax... Hmmm ....[/quote]
