You're doing the right thing. Now is the time to teach your son that when Mommy says No, she means NO! You'll feel better when he's eight and does just what you say. Free Girl  |

Well the thought of leaving my children alone scares me to death. I've watched so many shows about abducted kids and the outcome is usually horrifying. One show I watched said to never let your child more than arms length away from you and ever since I've watched that show I have obeyed that rule. One woman allowed her 11yr. old to go into a public mens room while she waited outside the door and a man enter and stabbed to death her son. I don't mean to be so somber but it is a sick reality that we have to face. I hope regardless of your neighborhood that you never let you child out alone. Take him to the womens restroom and always keep them in site, at the malls movies grocery store whereever. CPM  |

You hang in there. You have to show him that you mean what you say, and follow thru with the punishment. I know its hard. I often cry to myself after I've punished one of mine. I feel so bad. But I know its for the best in the long run. So be strong, and go on loving him. Teaching him the boundries in life is one of the greatest gifts a parent can give a child. Even if they don't know it!

Thank you for your reply CPM! I do follow the same....I think that's why I feel terrible punishing him! I feel this was partically my fault. I think it was a good lesson for both of us. |

Thank you AG. We did have a play date today, but I canceled it. I felt terrible, I really wanted to go too. The other mom and I get along great, she totally agreed that I should stick to the punishment. THank you for your support! |

To CPM, I always took my boys to the ladies room. But now the eldest is 9 and refuses to go in. And I must say I don't blame him. I let him go to the mens, I hate it, but I do. He has to tell me what he wants to do, then I know how long it should take (LOL POOR KID). He knows if he takes too long I'll be in there. So he just gets it done real quick. There comes a point when you have to let them do things without you hovering. Its hard though. ~Aussie Girl |

I agree with taking away something that is important to him. Outside seems to be the thing for your son. Mine is his bicycle. It is hard, I know. Good luck! IntroubleinTx  |

You have to set the boundries as the parent. This is the time to teach them that. If you give in you are teaching him that there is a way around punishment. Not a good idea....LOL.....you can stick to the punishment of staying inside for one day.......afterall its for the benefit of raising a wonderful, well mannered child that will grow up to be a respectful adult and understand that there is a consequence whether negative or positive for every action.............Azairyia  |

That's exactly what I do!! "Stay inside the fence or you'll have to come in." Oh the fits we have when they decide to wander anyway....LOL. Now on the sneaking out on grampa, well...I think that would call for a little extra punishment, like maybe no tv time for a day, or add an extra half a day to the "in-house" grounding. The hardest part of being a parent is following through on dicipline. They learn to push the limits really quick when you're a "push-over." (I learned THAT one the hard way...LOL) Good Luck!  |

I don't have any children yet and my advice may not be the best, but I do babysit almost everyday and I would never spank a child especially if they were someone else's. But when they are bad I have to do something. I just do time out in a big comfy chair in my livingroom. It is better then not letting them go outside for a whole day. It seems like 5 minutes in the time out chair is like a year to a little child. So I don't think you need to punish him for a whole day. He will learn his lesson after only a few minutes. Well, at leat the kids I watch do. They aren't very bad in the first place but they do get into trouble sometimes. lol God Bless, *Jewell~  |

Oh and it may hurt to punish him but if he is sitting in a big comfy arm chair for five minutes he will hate it because he can't play and he might cry and complain but at least he is safe. And really he hates sitting there but it's kinda funny because i love sitting in my chair! lol The kids I babysit don't see how I can sit there and watch tv for hours they hate the chair. It is so cute lol But reall yeven if he cries his eyes out you gotta se he is not being hurt and the punishment is not terrible at all but he wil think it is lol *Jewell~ |

Thank you all for your comments! Mercury...LOL...Poppa was quite mad that my guy walked out. Geez, if we did that when we were younger ooooooweeeeeeeee, we wouldnt see daylight for a week. When I came home and saw the look on my Dad's face(anger, disappointment, etc), Yikes....it brought back memories!! I usually send him to his room for time outs, but I feel this time he went over board. Today is our last day inside, I'm hanging in there. Thank you all! |

i think the punishment you picked to use was fine, hover I myself would have added an Extra day for the running out in gramps thing. Also make sure after you telll them what the punishment is you tell them why they are being punished. and not just something like you did not listen so now you are being punished. something like. when I told you to stay in our yard and you left you and that really scared me because... so on and so on and let them know the same thing will happen if they do it again. ...  |

Thank you Sqky! Yes, I did do that.....I reminded him of stranger danger and the fears I had. And we went over the "what if's" What if stranger danger did approach him? We talked about every possibility, and one of his responses were......I would call for you Mom..... *illumi takes a big swallow, tears ready to come out* I told him I wish I could be there EVERYTIME you called! And I did explain to him my fears......Thank you all for listening |
