Re: Greedy little boy

I feel sorry for the child actually , people won't like him will they , he won't be invited to the birthday parties and will be laughed at . Very sad . Stupid parents

I am so proud of my polite grandaughters aged 13 and 7 , they are nice children and a delight . We know the importance of love and dicipline don't we .

Poor little kid

What are these parents thinking of,children need discipline as much as TLC

Children need boundaries from a young age.

Re: Greedy little boy

I have a little Grandson who is a handful...he can't sit still and constantly pushes the boundaries he's been like that ever since he was a baby....always wanting to do what seems impossible and proving its possible.

I think people get the wrong impression about him but folks who know him love him to bits...he is very popular with other kids they all want him at their parties.

I like kids with spirit...it's channelling that spirit that's the challenge and that's sometimes a failure we adults have.

Re: Greedy little boy

Even if our children were little monkeys at home, they were expected to be polite and obedient when in public, or else. I remember our middle girl having temper tantrum in the supermarket when she was two. She didn't dare do it again!

Re: Greedy little boy

At that age? Two?
I'd tuck them under my arm and march out of wherever I was!
No way would I allow it to become an entertaining spectacle for the gawping public.

Re: Greedy little boy

Remember that song in the advertisement just one Cornetto give it to Me? ...well when my kids were naughty in public I would let out with a burst of that...very loudly It worked every time...they were so embarrassed they didn't dare step out of line in case I burst into song again....

A word of caution if you decide to try it...it doesn't work with my grandson he likes it and joins in

Re: Greedy little boy

I would have said to my mother, if you sing that Cornetto song, I-Scream.
