A few days ago my DS got a biro and scribbled over his bedroom wall. He is 5!! After a telling off, I told him that if it happened again his telly would be taken out of his room. I said that tellys were for big boys and by drawing on the wall he showed me that he was still a little boy. (TV in room is only because he shares room on weekends with my 13 year old step son) Anyway, last night DS took a 20p into the lounge and scratched it up and down the magnolia walls. He turned to see if we were watching, then carried on. DH carried out my threat. I sat in the lounge while he removed tv. My god I had to listen to DS crying and begging DH not to take it. I felt awful. So tempted to rush in and sahout "Stop!" If it was me I would have backed down with the "ok, you have one last chance" Line. My poor baby. God Im so pathetic. Why is disciplining so hard????!
