I've seen parents who di that to. They are lazy parents. I know working full time and coming home to "deal" with the kids must be rough. The problem is they are just "dealing" and not parenting.

I guess I don't get it
How can you expect a 2 yr old to understand 'No, stop it'
followed by a mean look
the people that I babysit for (BMW, Mercedes drivers)
have a 3 yr old and when they say 'No'
he stops, smiles, and does it again
finally, after the 5th 'No'
they resort to yelling and screaming at him
I guess I think that often parents have no control
And please keep in mind, this generation coming up
If they aren't sterile from drug use or JACKASS maiming stunts
they will be the teenagers/young adults
while my children are growing up
