Well that's exactly what the in-laws said last Thursday to be honest at 9.45pm when they were at my house after DS1 had been playing up for a number of hours and decided he needed a good smack and to tell me what a crap dad I was.Originally posted by SimonMac View PostIsn't it usually just bad/lazy parenting?
At 9.50pm the MIL decided to give him a good smack.
At 10.15pm I eventually got him to bed and settled as the house was now much quieter having thrown the in-laws out on the street to drive the two hours back home to their house.
All is much calmer now I don't have to have anything to do with the in-laws.What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment

I think I have had an experience with an autistic 3 year old this weekend - son of a good friend, we went on a mini cruise. In the restaurant he throws plates around constantly screaming, repeatedly hits his mum to nosebleed, was over-awed by the sail-away party to the point of powering down, and kicked and screamed his way on the tube when we made our way across London to the point his mum brokedown. The worst thing is mum does not see anything different to a regular 3 year old, and has her confidence totally knocked from her. I am now a firm believer in the reality of autism having lived through it for a weekend!Comment

I knew from 18 months year old I was a bad parent. It's because I leave my pants on the floor according to the in-laws. You have to bow down to the older generation, they didn't have ADHD or Autism in their day, it's because they were beaten as children, were disciplined by their parents properly and didn't have computers so it didn't occur.Originally posted by Wilmslow View PostDenial parenting - she sees no issue which is the issue........
I wish I was born in a time when there was no disabilities, pedophiles and you could leave your front door open. I blame Brexit.What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment

Islam was covered in (insert racist phrase for brown people) as clearly all Muslims are brown
