Isn’t It Funny?
Isn’t it funny.. that when you shout at your brat.. it’s ALRIGHT..! but when the man.. shouts at the brat.. you feel so heart pain..?? Double standard..?? Or are all mummies this way..?? or am i being too protective..??
I’ll have to admit that Chloe does need some raising of voice at times.. but like all kids, she likes to whine.. and likes to have things her way.. but of course.. PB doesn’t think that way. And she would go on for half an hour or so.. and of course .. PB got mad.. and raised his voice. Usually it takes me very long to get this mad.. or unless my fibroids are acting up… so when PB gets mad.. it really upsets me.. because afterall, it’s not like she was bad the whole time. Does it make sense to you ..??


Well, Jon always shout at Belle..and I have to remind him not to. I know what you mean about men raising their voice towards the kids.

Yish, I had to write this comment 3 times because I kept missing the comment spam thingy.
Anyway, what I wanted to say was….men have no patience. Imagine if they had to take care of the kids full time, they’d be shouting all day!!! LOL, I know my husband would be!

Hmm.. we don’t have children yet, but if i shout at the cat, david gets upset. but if he shouts at it, there’s always a legitimate reason. Go figure.

Hehehe..for me it’s the other way round. My hubby doesn’t like it when I shout at Ashley but it’s ok when he does it

Hmm.. sometimes I do tell my hubby what actually the kids intentions were and he would lower his tone when I think he scolded them for the wrong reason.

Yes, it happens to me. If the man shouts at the man, I go tsk tsk…and not as if I don’t shout at the boy myself.
