Wow, just wow at this thread! So much to say, so much to quote.....
Cello, in your situation, I would agree that BISS is not being used correctly. Your parents need to explain why and not just say no.
This thread is an example of what frustrates me sometimes. To me atleast it was clearly stated in this thread that BISS was only used after the parent had explained themselves multiple times why before using BISS. And that it was wrong to use BISS just because, without explaination. But yet people ignored this and argued that BISS is wrong to use without explaination, which everyone seems to agree on? odd
It is easiler to say BISS is wrong when you never been in the situation yourself. Kids can be annoying just to be annoying.
You wait until you've explained to your 8 yr old that he is too young for a gun 4.2 billion times. After explaining yourself why he is too young for gun for the millionth time, the kid is no longer asking you for an explaination, the kid is asking to annoy you and to hope you'll cave in. BISS is the only reason that kids needs at that time.
