Mother and child

Quote: "You can give birth to your enemy or your enemy can give birth to you". Personally, I have noticed that a lot of mother and child relationships dont have the respect they used to (on both sides) when I was growing up. Anytime a child has the balls to call the police on his/her mom for disciplining him/her in my opinion shows a lack of respect. Or a mom whom spends the CS 2 get her hair and nails done. Any thoughts?

Any money i receive from CS goes into a bank account for my children. I know a few female (unstable creatures) that do use the CS to get nails done, hair did, new shoe and the child looks like shit on a shingle. Please notice I didn't call them friends. I refuse to be friends with females like that. I could look like shit but my children ALWAYS and i do mean ALWAYS look good. That being said if one on my children feels the need to call the cops on me ,I'm done and that child has to go. I gave my all to my children and I demand respect so when you disrespect me you got to leave. Go live with your father's family. and see if you have the same life over there that you had here. I Love my children with my whole being but I will not be disrespected at all.

I think some ppl have truly effed up relationships with their parents.

I do believe respect is lost in alot of kids today. I heard a kid in the store recently call his mother a liar. My jaw hit the ground. I would have been pickin up my damn teeth. My mom always said she was not going to be afraid of somebody she gave birth to. I think too many parents are afraid of what there kids are going to do if they discipline them.

I understand where u r coming from. Sometimes there is a lack of respect because of the doings of outside parties. My son had 2 learn the hard way what it is like 2 live with his father and his new family. I found out later his father was painting this pretty picture of how life would be living with him. But my son didnt want 2 do what he was suppose 2 here and caught hell over there. Now I am having issues with my ex's mom whom seems 2 think she overrides my authority which my child obeys. I would think she would no better being that her son (my ex) does not respect her. but nonetheless it is what it is. So I have something 4 the both of their a$$es! As the saying goes "there is more than one way 2 skin a cat".

i have noticed that most ppl kids and adults dont have respect for eachother.. but I have also noticed that how you treat yourself, your partner and ppl around you.. is usually how your child will interact with you... an example we know a couple with two children.. the mom and dad always belittle eachother, always hide things from eachother and always yell whenever they want the other to listen.. the kids in turn do the same to eachother and the parents... it saddens me.. however we babysat the kids all weekend and only had about four incidents where we had to correct them.. we let them know.. in this house no one yells, no one puts the other down we only encourage and love eachother and if you cant do that you will be disaplined.. they calmed the hell down after that.. and when I talked to them I didnt yell nor does my husband.. but we firmly believe anything we expect we should do.. we dont yell at eachother ever.. my point is when us adults can learn to love eachother and respect ourselves and those around us kids learn from example.. the moms running around looking nice with kids looking bad.. probably were kids looking bad looking up to their mothers dreaming of when they had it like that... 

not always is that the case but all behavior is learned...

YOU ARE SO VERY VERY RIGHT...WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE FEAR WE HAD OF OUR PARENTS.

MY GENERATION WAS SCARED TO TALK THE WAY THESE KIDS DO..WE WOULDVE GOTTEN OUR LIPS KNOCKED OFF.

AND SERIOUSLY..IT WASNT SO MUCH THAT WE WERE SCARED...WE JUST HAD A HEALTHY FEAR/RESPECT OF OUR PARENTS..THAT THESE KIDS DONT HAVE.

Some parents need the police called on them because their idea of discipline is straight abuse
