You obviously mean 'their', when you refer to your folks, but spell 'there'.<br />Sheesh! (Is that a word?)<br />BTW...Jana, I love, love, love "your" blog..."you're" very funny, you remind me of the days of "yore", and my very own Mom!!

You don't soun...@Anton - I'm sorry, what?!? You don't sound very much like a parent, and therefore don't really get an opinion of someone's parenting techniques, in my humble opinion. As a parent of 5 kids, (and apparently many other parents agree) this is a great technique. I hardly think that making a child wait 10 whole minutes to eat after they chose to not come when they were called is "harsh", "humiliating" or "being made the butt of jokes". If you want to truly understand those terms, I can introduce you to my ex-husband.<br />Rock on Meanest Mom! (Although I might have to fight you for that title. I've told my kids for years that I went to "Mean Mom School" and graduated top of my class. ;) )Brookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13491777944512901122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5382816224610988438.post-27167218665430813222010-03-04T18:30:04.052-05:002010-03-04T18:30:04.052-05:00This does not rock at all.

How would you like it if your parents humiliated you in this manner and got universally lauded for it? Would you enjoy being made the butt of endless jokes? If I ran a blog where I constantly ridiculed my parents and there behavior I would look like a spoiled brat. Why should the grownups get to play by a different set of rules? Please consider this before replying.
