Poll: Has your child ever done any of these things?

Nope to either of those. Amazingly enough he actually interacts with other people even when he could be playing on his xbox or my phone.

No and No

*my daughter DID bite my leg once though at Target because she wanted candy...I told her if she didn't let go-I'd spank her butt right there in front of God and everyone else! Needless to say, she let go and did not get the candy ; )

No, my child can throw tantrums but, has never committed a crime. Of course, she's only 6 & behaves better in public & in school, than she does at home.

No to either, and she prefers Stupid Zombies to Angry birds. However if she misbehaves in the store I just tell her I'll put the Broccoli back unless she behaves. She behaves.

My kid shoplifted because I said no toys, so I'm not so quick to judge. We also paid for the toy, and waited for another kid to come out, so he could hand the toy to him.

LMAO... is that where that is going?

No, my kids have played games... and not hurt anyone....

They have been denied candy... and never hurt anyone.

I just didn't see that question going THAT far, that is insanity.

No. My kids are young though. They are still pretty empathetic toward others. I would imagine that if they started to act this way as they matured that it would be a sign of mental illness, at which time I would get them the help they need as long as I had the power to do so. It's more problematic when they are of legal age and cannot be forced to get medical or emotional support for their problems.

I saw a comment about not seeing the flaws in our own children.  I see the flaws in mine and I work with them in as supportive way as possible to correct what we can.  

LOL NO
But I do think the use of devices to avoid interacting with a child has detrimental effects on the child.
