Today we had him for an hour and

He teased the kitten
Threaten to poke dd2's eyes ok
Went in kitchen and opened a loaf of bread after we had said no, leaving slices over the floor
Weed in a bowl (which is the sick bowl we keep in the bathroom as dd1 has the sickness bug)
Broken a toy

Bearing in mind this is only what has happened today, if I wrote a list of things in the past such I'd be here all evening.

OP posts:

Thanks

He could very well have his own kids by now!

I don’t understand how this thread with 20 posts has been dug up 15 years later though!

Also, if WayBackWhen’s post is now enough to be deleted on here then frankly it’s not worth discussing anything - it was a very mild and totally reasonable comment as far as I saw.

Thanks

I kind of think my house my rules. So if a friend is over and their kid is doing something that wouldn't fly with my kids (particularly something dangerous/disrespectful, id let little things slide) I'd wait for their parent to address it first and if they didn't then I'd say "bob, we don't do that in this house please go and do x instead, would you like me to help you or can you do it by yourself" And then praise if they do it. If they don't then I'd look at the parent for backup. If they refused I'd just say well my dd isn't allowed to do this and I don't want her getting mixed messages. If she digs in then it's kind of her problem and I wouldn't be exposing dd to being threatened in her own home.

Thanks

There is a troll who keeps resurrecting threads from 2007. No idea why MN doesn't disable the threads completely

Thanks

It was probably deleted as that poster is just going through the 2007 threads and reactivating all of them. Yesterday it was 2011 threads being reactivated. I assume they are just a troll who wants to clog up the boards so much the site becomes unusable.
