I want to strangle my kid. (No, not really strangle.. but a payback is in order!)

If you think I never disciplined this kid, and he had consequences to his actions, think again. A good swift kick in the *** was never not an option that didn't happen from time to time.

What I'm saying is that you don't "get even" with your kids.That's 5th grade stuff. Your supposed to Love ,nurture and guide them.For the short time I had him in my life my Dad never once laid a hand on me but I knew in no uncertain terms if I pushed it that could be one of the "consequences" of my actions.I raised my 3 Sons the same way and we all Love and respect each other as I did my Dad.
