Well at least you don’t spank them, because heaven knows you should be locked into the darkest cell at Guantanamo for that level of abuse.

My name is CSY and I too am an abusive mother. I mke my children 12, 10 and 8 wash their own laundry, fold it, put it away, clean their bathroom, their bedrooms and EVEN the kitchen and living room! The HORROR!!! Why is it that mothers who raise their children right are wrong?

GrandeMocha, I’m a worse mom than you–when my oldest turns 6 (about 5 weeks from now) his current chore of merely putting away his folded laundry turns into him actually having to fold the laundry himself AND put it away. At age SIX! We also make him take out the recycling bin on trash days. And both he and the almost-3-year-old are frequently tortured with our insistence upon cleaning up toys and putting away books. The horror, the horror!

I feel better with this program available and to know that I’m not alone.

“If you can’t make them mind at 2, what do you think it will be like when they’re 12?”

I can’t tell you how many times i’ve had to give that speech to my bf’s great-grandmother. God forbid my kid should do something I want her to….

Put me on the list…I supervised while my 7-year-old took a wet rag to the bathroom floor (it’s a lot easier for him to be on his hands and knees than it is for me) because…HORROR!…he and his brother don’t pay attention in there (if you know what I mean). I told him that “I don’t pee on the floor, I use the toilet. When you learn to do the same, you won’t have to wash the floor anymore.” I’m awful, I know (the floor is like 1.5 feet square, btw).

I’m a mean mom, too!

I really wish more moms were. It amazes me how many parents I see letting their toddler control the family. If you can’t make them mind at 2, what’s it going to be like when they’re 12?

Sign Me Up and Nail Me to a Cross…
I am ready to be a MARTYR!

I confess, I have made them clean and wash and dust.
I even made them do …gulp HOMEWORK!
I have followed them and listened in on their phone calls … I have even (gulp) searched their drawers and Horrors … they are beginning to do the same to their kids …abuse is a vicious cycle.
FORGIVE ME!!
I am the 2nd meanest mother in the world, my mother was the meanest! LOL!
NO MORE WOODEN HANGERS!!

The rule of the living room is, if I step on it, I thow it in the trash. If it gets sucked up in the vaccuum, its gone.
