[quote=Anonymous]I've worked for so many families and I am sure 1/2 of the parents who will read this, believe in: time-out, the quarter system and "taking away priveledges." Why don't parents realized this doesn't work? They read these parenting books/magazines and swear by them ! I think it's funny because before all of this technology, people disciplined their kids by teaching them, you work hard for what you want and the good ole' spanking. I would never hit a child, but from all the spoiled brats I encounter and babysit for, I don't understand how parents just let them do what they want. 1 family in specific, both parents are 40 yrs + and their son is 2 and addicted to an iPad.. Take it out of his site, he starts to cry. When he doesn't want to do something, he says no or he'll just cry..he doesn't eat any food but yogurt and snacks.. If I didn't eat what my mom cooked, I just didn't eat. Parents are far too lenient and so aloof from their kids, I think this is pathetic that as a babysitter I have smarter sense than parents who are 10-20 years older than I am.[/quote]
