Well not with DS1, he has just kicked me in the playground becase I told him this morning that his brother and he were grounded because of their constant bickering, when he came out of school he thought the grounding had been lifted, and kicked me when he found out it wasn't. then he started throwing acorns at my head, I wanted to just smack, him I really did. I walked away and told him that unless his behaviour showed a marked improvment then he would be grounded all week - and has it, no he's till fecking bickering and arguing and banging doors and sulking. If this what he's like at 9, god help me when he's a teenager

If you tell your 9 year old he is grounded because of his behaviour, you would think it would make him stop the bad behaviour wouldn't you?
