Just because someone's kid cussed them out, doesn't automatically mean they live in a doublewide, or makes them white trash. The OP's kid could be one of those little bratty snotty heathens, and has no respect for the parents

You obviously haven't seen pimp my double wide.

I take offense at your use of the word "heathen". I know plenty of heathen children who do NOT curse out their parents or shit on couches.

What are you tryin' to do here, make some kind of whitty redneck/hillbilly white trash joke? Fail

Sorry if I offended your trailer park.

When did I say anythin' about me personally livin' in a trailer park?

Huh, I sure wouldn't give my kid a 'whooping' It just brings their respect for their parent down just a little bit more. But whatever.

The child also grows up with respect toward that parent too violence isnt acceptable? R u ******* kidding me? Had i done something so ******* retarted i wouldnt have lived to see 6 or 7 or 8 the parent is clearly to blame here lazy **** takes no time to teach the child anything and rather than silve a solution they let the child be the ******* alpha in the situation he is clearly stateing his dominance over the parent and that needs rectification swiftly because that parent will never have his respect bullshit to you sir/madam op ydi terrible parenting and u are retarted

I think you're the lone voice of reason here. Yeah, this is well beyond the boundaries of normal behavior, but maybe this child is autistic or has some other cognitive disorder. We don't know. But it's definitely a sign to seek professional help, if mom hasn't already. I also understand mom's frustration at trying to get ready and off to work on time, which could cause her to lose her cool. At least the couch was leather and not fabric, definitely easier to clean.

If the kid had some sort of mental/emotional problem, then the OP shouldn't be bitching about it on FML. Maybe the people in here saying to beat his ass don't have children but they were children once and they know what worked for them. When I got sent to my room, I'd just go to sleep, if I got something taken away from me, I'd find something else to occupy my time. If I got the belt to my ass, I never did it again. At first they don't do it in fear of the pain, but as they grow up, they understand that it's just their parents disciplining them. They grow up learning, if I do something bad, I'm gonna be punished instead of learning that if they are bad, they will get a slap on the wrist that they can just shrug off. Children need to be disciplined, but they should also be talked to about it so they understand WHY they are being disciplined.

Reinforcement always works better then punishment, punish as a last resort and never punish when angry. Also proofread your responses, to avoid looking uneducated.

Your response looks like the stereotypical adolescent male's room.

I have children and I would spank my children for doing this, that child needs to learn respect and be disciplined. Period.

Wow u Lazy stupid idiot. That is 4 year old child for gods sake. 1.) if i ever heard my child cuss even at 10 yrs old i would wear his behind out. 2.) crapping on the furniture? I swear my child would be afraid to ever even think about doing something bad again. People these days dont understand, u are the PARENT not the FRIEND. You need to take respinsibility and bring this child up right. My god...
