A Harsh Lesson
We’ve all been in this situation. You’re walking into the grocery store to pick up a few things and as the sliding doors open you’re greeted by two things: a welcome blast of air conditioning and the less pleasant screams of a child whose parents have just refused to buy him or her a candy bar/box of cereal/toy/etc. Walking by you have to shake your head and mumble to yourself “I wouldn’t let my kid get away with that”. Sadly lots of parents these days do. It seems many of today’s adults are reluctant to ever say no or do anything to upset their children, which in many cases is leading to lazy, spoiled children. It’s nice to see when parents take a stand for good behavior.
Nothing brings out aggression, competitiveness and bad language quite like sibling videogaming. Heated arguments and even full-blown fights can arise out of what started as friendly game of Mario Kart. One particular trio of boys had been warned several times about their behavior while playing their Xbox. It seems they thought mom and dad were all bark and no bite, because one day they came home to find their punishment: Dad ‘borrowed’ their Xbox to use in a modern art piece which should be entitled “Fatherly PWNage”. Medium: tree, xbox, nails.
