My child has a big mouth

Oh my goodness  Lately his favorite thing to say is:

"Mom, don't say that to me.  I'm going to do what I want to do."  or

"Then I'm going to come over and hit you." 

 Are you kidding me?  I had no clue this could start so early.   

Re: My child has a big mouth

  • Really? Wow, I have no idea how I would handle that. When I was a bratty teenager and would tell my parents I hated them (yes, I was an @ss), my parents would say "well, we love you." I am sure that is the last thing they were really thinking/feeling. 

    DH thinks it is funny to "talk" for Evan so when I say things he thinks are wrong he will say "you don't know these things, Mommy." I told him he better stop or Evan will really say that to me one day.

  • We are dealing with the same exact thing! C is constantly talking back and saying terribly smart-mouthed things. We can't believe some of the things coming out of his mouth.
  • It's happening at our house too.  I'm not sure what to do.  Sending her to her room usually gets her attention pretty quickly.  But the behavior isn't changing over time. I think a lot of it is their age, but it's annoying and exhausting.

    Yeah, for my own sanity, I am going to go with age. I've dodged a bullet for now because T directs a lot of it at Mathis...

    "Mathis, that is RUDE."

    "Mathis, I don't want to see you do that again."

    "Mathis, you'd better quit it." (Thanks, DH, for saying "quit it" all the time. Awesome)

  • G used to say, "don't tell me no", or if I start The Countdown, "don't say one". I don't know what happened but those days are far and few between now, don't miss them at all.
