LOL... I don't know if this is sarcastic or not, but it always blows my mind when people act like being a permissive parent is the WORST thing you can do to your child. |
Allowing your child to be an abusive asshole is pretty much the worst thing you can do for them. |
Your Nanny is doing exactly the right thing. Hopefully when your out of control child asks to go play in the basement she is calmly saying,"No, the basement is off limits this week since you locked me in last week."
Of course, you and your dh are likely letting him down in the basement to ride that bike as soon as your Nanny walks out the door at night, so you should expect your kid to lock nanny in the basement again as soon as she allows him to play down there again. I look forward to your post within a month complaining that your Nanny quit because she just didn't understand your high spirited rambunctious buy. |
Unless you luck out with a permissive judge and jury, watching your entitled kid rot in jail IS one of the WORST things for MOST parents. Ever hear of Sam Ellis? Perfect example of what can easily happen to kids who are spoiled rotten. Think about it. |
I think nobody
In this page understand kids,they doing this because they think this fun,they are just a kid ,put yourself in kids place and remember what you did when you was a kid,think,I did terrible thing,but ,in adult age I became an exemplar person. Kids is like that ,not crusified them. |
Mother of three here including 2 boys. I've also nannied 5 boys over the course of 15 years. Not Once did one of them do something like this. |
Oh look. It's the illiterate troll who should never be employed as a nanny. Thanks for showing up! |
I can't imagine she's even a nanny. |
lol put ourselves in a kids place? If I were to do that I would be too afraid to try something like locking an adult in a basement. Any child that does it once is definitely in for a learning experience and testing boundaries. Any child that does it Numerous times just has not been disciplined and will continue to act out this way. It's not normal no matter how much you twist it. I'd think you were the op if it weren't for the way you type etc. |
It's op pretending. |
Your child is a brat and you and your husband are assholes. |
What did you decide to do, OP? |
Probably bought him ice cream and gave him his bike as a reward |
Yep. That's exactly how you train a criminal. Reward evil behavior. In a few years, everyone will say, "But he came from such a good family, and his parents adored him!" My ass. His parents adored themselves. |
Exactly PP.. This kid is a ticking time bomb and his parents are clueless to see it |
