My Idea of a Perfect Sunday Afternoon.
Yesterday, my 10 year old son and I spent the afternoon together. No sisters, no little brother tagging along, just the two of us.

Wow! Have you heard about this? A father in North Carolina found a facebook post by his 15 year old daughter that complained (in some rather expressive language) about having to do her chores.
This Dad got his revenge by posting a video response on YouTube.
I'm still of the opinion that spanking can be a good child rearing tool if used properly. They can publish (biased, in my opinion) research all day long that says kids who are spanked are more likely to want to beat people up when they get older (yeah, ok) and my opinion won't change.
A couple I know is having a disagreement over a parenting issue. The disagreement is over whether parents should allow their children to win when playing games with them or not. One parent believes that allowing children to win sends them the wrong message, while the other parent believes not allowing the child to win from time to time will cause their self esteem to suffer and they'll no longer want to play with the parent.
