Sorry, Ishtar. I was addressing 11217’s comment. The kids I described were absolutely off the wall and obnoxious but the way they were disciplined / or not disciplined was the reason.
I saw a father discipline his son on the subway. I thought it was great. The kid was about 4. He was coming home, I guess, for a Child care center and the father home from work. He was whining and complaining about the train (just like us and didn’t want to sit down completely on the seat). He then started getting a little loud “When are we getting home!!???” He was obviously tired but he was working himself up to a tantrum. The father leaned down to talk to him, putting his hand on the kids shoulder. He leaned over to whisper something and it went on a little while. The kid jutted out his lip, pouting as a last sign of ego, but settled down finally, then holding fathers hand. No tantrum. No fireworks. Completely shortcircuited by a good father.
donatella, I would be out of control too if I had kids, especially 5.
I’m still confused why anyone has that many kids these days. We don’t require all those field hands in 2010 like we did in 1934.
Legion, have you posted your sources? I’m guessing you did and I just skipped right over them. I guess because I just can’t get excited about this non-story. Besides, that area they’re building in could really use some redevelopment. Most of that area is an eye sore.
IF ONE MORE PERSON SAYS I HAVE THEM IM GOING TO SCREAM AND SLAP YOU ACROSS FROM MY COMPUTER MONITOR. I DO NOT HAVE THEM ANYWHERE IN MY APARTMENT. THEY ARE IN THE LAUNDRY ROOM ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BUILDING. THEY WILL NOT BE ENTERING MY APARTMENT, BELIEVE!
and not everyone wants to live your ridiculous Friends and Sex in the City Lifestyle! some of us are a bit more law & order!

When do these parents who let their children stay up all hours of the night find time to themselves?

Montrose,
I’m a student of Math,
it’s pure, it’s irrefutable.
It reveals truth and sometimes even nature herself.
Al Franken won by 312 votes.
341 Felons voted illegally in that election.
This was matched up to voter registration records.
The lie continues.
341 – 312 = Coleman win by 29 votes.

An Imam who refuses to rule out funding from Iran, and who refuses to condemn Hamas, is not moderate in my book.
