Today, while shopping, my six-year-old son threw a tantrum because I wouldn't buy him a video game. I ended up having to grab his arm and leave the store. He screamed that I was kidnapping him, at which point I was socked in the face and pinned to the floor by three bystanders. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went shopping with my two sons and my wife. We got separated after a while, and I spotted my son in the video game section of the store. I snuck up behind him and playfully slapped him on the back of the head. The kid turned around and it wasn't my son. His mom was none to happy. FML
Today, my 6 year-old daughter got mad at me for not buying her yet another expensive doll. I had to pull her away, and she started screaming for help. The next thing I know, another shopper puts me in a chokehold and calls for security, all while my daughter smirks. FML
Today, I told my son he couldn't have a toy. He threw a fit, looked me in the eye, and screamed, "Daddy's right! You are a bitch!" The whole store was watching. FML
Today, I saw a kid throwing a tantrum in a supermarket. Thinking it was a matter of lack of discipline, I waited for the kid’s mother to come out of the bathroom to tell her how naughty her son was being. I then got to watch her beat her son to the point of unconsciousness. FML
Today, my 6-year-old daughter threw a tantrum in the middle of a store, all because I wouldn't buy her a pushup bra. FML
Today, I took my 6 year-old to work. A normally docile child, she chased me around with her toy - beating me with it while all my colleagues watched - not stopping despite me requesting her to. When she finally lost said toy, she threw a huge tantrum. Guess who's banned from my office. FML
Today, my child was refusing to leave the playground. I had to pry her, screaming and crying, from the monkey bars. I then realized I had been assaulting someone else's kid. FML
Today, I smacked my kid on top of the head for spinning the display rack while I was looking at greeting cards. It wasn't until he dramatically screamed and dropped to the floor wailing that I realized he wasn't my daughter. FML
Today, my 6-year-old son was so angry at me for not buying him overpriced candy at the airport that he told a security guard I had a machine gun in my suitcase. The interrogation was not pleasant. FML
Today, I went to the movies with my husband and our 6-year-old son. My husband kept stealing popcorn from the guy next to him, to the point where the guy punched him in the face. The movie was stopped, the police were called, and my son is now inconsolable. FML

My mom would have K-I-L-L-E-D me if I'd tried that. (Not literally, but you know what I mean.) I shudder to even imagine it.

Spanking is good when used sparingly and appropriately. Yelling can work the same way, when my sisters were younger my dad never yelled at them except in one instance when they were doing something dangerous. Since he never yelled it drove the point home. However I can tell you right now, don't let spanking get out of hand or let your own emotional state cause you to spank your children. When I was ages 5-11 my mom was depressed and we believe bipolar. For a year or two in that period one or more of us would get spanked 5 days out of the week for whatever reason. If it wasn't one thing it was another. She'd always find some reason. So we listened a lot less because we knew we'd get spanked anyway. I didn't know that's why I disobeyed then, it's looking back that I connected the dots. Outside of that year we got spanked less frequently but still far too often. I can never look at wooden cooking spoons today without thinking of spankings, since that was her tool of choice. We actually took to hiding it so she'd have to find something less painful. Interestingly once she went back to school and got a job, she almost completely stopped. The last time she tried it on me I was 16. I'd had enough and didn't let her. If you ask her today she will maintain that she only spanked us maybe twice a year. And that she needed to do it more. I have 6 sisters who all remember this so it isn't my memory blowing it out of proportion.

Time for a parental combo.. Ass beating, break his Xbox, reduce his room to nothing but a bed. No more sweets. Beverages reduced to water, password lock the computers. Anything else you can come up with
