My sentiments exactly. My mom raised 6 kids, if any of us ever acted out we got one warning then if we did it again we'd be in big trouble, then if we did it again...
...okay deadbeat parents pay attention to this part...
we actually got in trouble.
I hate it when parents say, stop it or I'll _____(fill in the blank) and then never go through with the punishment. Are these people aware that that is how you make a criminal? You can teach your kids responsiblity and cause and effect or the police and court system can. I think I'd rather see my kids sit in their rooms for 20 minutes rather than in a cell for 20 years.
