@Fernie: nope mine use The Wooden Spoon and I would be thankful if she didn't tell the old man

@Sissycindysue: To me that sounds like a functional family...if a wooden spoon was all mine hit me with I would have been a more well adjusted person as I grew. I am anti-hitting kids at all. Your Mom was cool to not tell the old man.....I'm sure it was better for her too!

@Fernie: yeah and we used to be able to win on sports teams we didn't worry about the other team's feelings if they lost in a friendly game of baseball these kids today they feel like they're entitled to everything
