Stricter Parenting

Posted in home by KT
Jul 18 2010

We are the kind of strict disciplinarians that do not allow jumping (or in our house, jJumping) on the bed. Ever. And our children obey us without question, as a result of our excellent parenting. If there was a a Nobel Prize in parenting? We would win it. **

** this video is post-nap, hence the Cute Outfits. And in it, we are deliberately mocking this stupid parenting book we just read that is all about how you don’t ever tell your kids what to do. Instead, you tell them what you hope they do and don’t do, and apparently they live with the consequences, even if those consequences are driving off a cliff with a car full of other kids, or flunking out of high school. Its the worst book, ever.
