Bad Parenting: The Angry Child

11 Jan

Angry Children are scary

My son Blake just turned two years old on December 30 and I have been waiting for the start of the so called Terrible Twos.  I am not sure what he is going to be capable of at this age – will he obtain some sort of crazy toddler strength?  A more keen ability to smack me in the groin out of nowhere just for the hell of it?  Will he be able to get me a beer and make me a sandwich?? (I tried to get my wife to do this and I slept on the couch for a couple of nights so I won’t make the mistake of awakening the Wicked Wife again!)  You have all seen these kids that get out of control.  Parents dragging children through the aisles of Target as the throw some sort of fit that makes everyone think you are abusing your child.  I remember always thinking how can parents be so cruel to their kids?  Can’t they just give them what they want?  Well apparently they don’t usually tell you want they want they just let it be known that whatever it is they do want they aren’t getting.  My only hope is when my child decides to go limp while shopping for bargains that I will not drag him through the store.  I will pick him up, explain calmly what I expect from him, and throw some Goldfish at him because as all parents kids go ape shit over those little golden crackers.
