This kid's on my shit list now . . .

Recommended Posts

Ok, so I'm taking care of a 14-year-old and 15-year-old for a week right now. Their mother sends me an e-mail forwarded from the 15-year-old's teacher, saying that he was late to school (true, b/c he missed his bus, and I was busy taking the other one to school) and that I told him "I don't care what you do, as long as you don't kill anyone" (untrue).

Well, now that little fucker's gonna have a fun weekend . . . he's gonna get to clean, and do homework, and . . . well, pretty much nothing else. No Playstation, that's for damn sure.

Am I being too hard on him? Actually, I really shouldn't care, b/c I'm sick of taking care of him, so maybe this'll stave off future requests.

Hard on him? No. I hate teenagers. ;)

Grab him a bucket and a toothbrush - the front walk is in desperate need of cleaning.
People shouldn't lie. I don't care how old they are.

He played the game figuring that you'd never know he lied. He lost, there's a price to losing-he needs to learn that now. I'm in favor of manual labor punishment. I just wish that you lived close to me so that I could help assign chores.
I am not the man. But the man knows my name...and he's worried

I'm sure you wouldn't be able to pull this one off. But if so it'll sure put a reminder in his brain not to lie.

Find a corner in the house where the flooring is tile or vinyl. Pure out some uncooked rice or minute rice (minute works really well). Hang a piece of paper with a small circle drawn in the center. Make sure it's just above the childs head. The child must be in shorts so you get a skin on rice contact.Then instruct the child to kneel on the rice and keep their nose in the circle. They cannot use their hands to support themselves against the wall. This only needs to be done for 10-15mins 20-25 for the really blatant infractions.

I promise you the child will think twice about telling a lie or getting in trouble the next time.

I know this because this was my punishment when I was a teenager for lying or major fuckups. That rice hurts like a motherfucker! I only lied about 3 times until I finally caught on. I'm a slow learner :ph34r:

The punishment has to be appropriate. One thing to include is to make him tell his mother what happened. That's gonna really hurt. Tell him now that he'll have to talk it over with her, so that he'll be tortured until she gets home. Make sure he knows that you're going to tell her your side first(then DO it), so that he won't think he can BS through it.

Other than that, well, what did lying get him? Make darn sure he doesn't get the benefit of that.

Then, well, I'll bet the windows haven't been washed :)

I nannied a 13 year old for 5 years and am currently a 10th and 12th Grade High School teacher. Lying and getting you in trouble is unnaceptable. Tell him he's lucky you aren't me. >:(
