Oh, you don't like the way I parent my child?
These fucks I live with are the worst, ladies. I'm currently living with my ex and his family (mom, dad, brother, sister, and for the last couple weeks, grandma). For the past seven months I have been trying desperately to get this kid to respect boundaries, using a reward/punishment type system to instill good behaviors in him. Does anyone else respect the rules that my ex and I set for our child? Of fucking course they don't.
One of those boundaries is no climbing on the table. Guess what this tiny jerks favorite thing to do is? Yea, and God forbid you tell him awful words like "no" or "stop". That just makes the inevitable tantrum 1000x worse. And when said tantrum takes place, I put him in his pack and play to chill for a minute and then give him a hug while quietly telling him I love him, but that shit don't fly. It works too...as long as these shit lords aren't home.
Or if it's a day like today, where he has been whiney and extra shitty and the tantrums never end. Then if he doesn't chill in jail, I ignore him until he calms down. Which is what I was doing until shit grandpa decides he's going to come all the way out from his fucking room to baby talk to the kiddo while I'm trying to fucking discipline him, take him out of jail, and play with him.
This asshole is the biggest fuck who constantly undermines our parenting. Everytime my kid cries he swoops in to baby him and very passive agressively let's us know he thinks we are mean to kiddo. The man with a 17yo and 14 yo that he still gets babysitters for because they can't even cook themselves food. I get my son is only 17 mo, but he understands right from wrong. I feel he is at the developmental level to start to learn rules, but that can't happen if he knows all he has to do is throw a shit fit to get his way.
So fuck it. Let him do whatever he want, because it's not my shit destructo bob will be fucking with. He already pulled down a curtain rod, broken almost all of the little garden ornaments, steals and hides things from their rooms, ripped up homework, pulled everything out of a dresser, cracked a window (might be kids fault, not sure), etc. Only three more months til we're out. I hope kiddo burns the house down as soon as our last box is out. Fuckers.

Maybe you could help him out with the destruction. While he's asleep so he doesn't see you do it of course. I hear they make extra strength sharpies now.
...It's funny you should say that, because just this afternoon the umbrella I was using in the back yard fell over and one of the little arms broke. I folded it up and put it back like nothing happened, haha.
lol- You need to think bigger. Did you see that picture of the kids who painted the tv white? Or the chocolate syrup all over the ENTIRE house? Bonus points if they let him have more sweets than you do.
All they want to feed him is fast food and sugar, because that's what they feed their own kids. I shut that down a long time ago, but food everywhere would definitely be most evil since any that gets left out gets swarmed by ants.
God, ants are the worst. Can you buy those somewhere?
