Kids are driving me nuts

[Christi]

They are so loud. Wish I had a mute button.

mute button=duct tape

PP-no I have tried that then have to explain at church why they have the skin around their mouths ripped off! j/k

[Ainkor]

Depends on the age, but I started going to the park as a kid solo or with a friend when I was 4. I know today is different, but that usually calmed all us kids down.

[WickedKitchen]

just leave them at the church. Somebody will take care of them.

j/k. I have the same thought occasionally because we don't watch much TV. Playing board games with a 4 and 6 year old is frustrating as sh*t. I usually pull the Tom Sawyer thing and get them to help me do chores or cook. We all get into it and make it sort of fun.

If all else fails I give them a Thunder ESP and send them to bed. again...kidding...whiskey works better.

I was going to say whiskey too.

At least here in NC, you can leave them at any fire station too, and no get in trouble.

I ended up plugging my ears with my ipod...

Get some of those electric shock dog training collars. They work a treat.

Pretty soon, your kids will be sitting on command and fetching sticks.

Either that, or what works well for us is the threat of a "screen" ban - which encompasses all TVs, Xboxes, Wiis, DSes, etc, ect....

Or if none of those work.....there's always BabyTaser.

[Owens187]

I need me one of them Baby Tasers. Screen ban does NOTHING with my 13 year old....

[Liandri]

Too loud?

[Christi]

Too loud?

That is how I roll. But some days it just does no good. Time outs only work on the baby.
