When my daughter was in middle-high school I cancelled Christmas because I didn’t like her grades!! I warned her! I followed thru!! Never had to again!! I sat and watched Lifetime all day!! She walked around mumbling!! I allowed no company and we did not leave the house! As a mom I was hurting as much as she was! Parenting is a job where discipline matters and “threats” carry no weight, unless you follow through!

He can forget about games,phone,new clothes,shoes,snacks. He’s going to regret them words. No movies,friends over. He will get the bare minimum.

what does mom do that makes him upset? at least listen, and if it's not a valid reason, then forget Christmas.

A man in the house? Not in mine. My sons father wasn't a part of his life until my son turned 23. I only spanked him ONCE in his life. My son has NEVER been arrested, hurt animals, or disrespected elders, and has faith in God. He's healthy, doesn't do drugs, not an alcoholic, and has an engineering job for a entertainment park. And all this WITHOUT A FATHER in the home....I think I did good.😁😁😁

my kids went without Christmas one year. three days before chirstmas. go ahead and open your presents. do you like it. remember what you said yesterday, now that you're excited about what you got. put it all in the car, it's going back. and I'd anything is broken from here to the car. birthdays and all holidays for the next year will be canceled. Tell me I'm not your real dad, when I've raised yall from 1 and your 12 and you have seen that man twice!! go find him and see if he wants to be your father.

If I ever talked like that to my Mom, my Dad would make sure all I got for Christmas is new teeth.

Very bold of him to speak out about his feelings to his mother. I’m from old school so regardless if I felt that way I would’ve never said anything about it. We were taught to be respectful our feelings didn’t matter

So basically the son will retract his statement to save his Christmas and birthdays… this ain’t teach him shit but to keep his comments to himself. What he said is what he still feels… like wtf

It's the values about Faith,About Ingreity and Humbleness Not about things, Hope that this Dad, Husband, especially their son, Realizes Evil is Bring it hard on faster than blinking eye lids and thoughts how far to be tested beyond Re comprensible reactions . Dad is still of old schooled morals and virtues, MOTHER is ALSO as such BECAUSE she backs up her Man,Husband instead of Slapping their son as a wake up call, which old ways she would be 1000% to put their son in check , yet she Allowed not evil to get the best for anger, Or to allow such words that child has no respect because

Since we are aware now that whipping of children only builds up resentment in them after spanking. That is why now we must think wiser when it comes to 'discipline' our children.

Well, to be fair, maybe she does! You know what they say, OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF BABES! HE MIGHT BE RIGHT! I as a parent had to learn that children do have a right too speak their feelings weather we like or agree too them.

young man just because your mother may not show you that what you said hurt trust and Believe that behind closed doors and out of your sight you literally broke her heart okay one of these days your mom is not going to be there and you're going to reflect on everything you have said or not said did or have not done and wish and regret and you will do nothing but wish for another day but it'll be too late. you better hug your mother and appreciate the fact that without her or your dad you wouldn't be sitting in that living room right now you wouldn't even be a thought.

Well done Dad. The "no he didn't" part let that kid know that the level of disappointment is high. My son was disrespectful to his mother just one time in his life. I made him strip his room clean, with just a bed, desk, and lamp for 6 months. Phone was gone and made him post the ad to sell his Xbox, then made him do the transaction. These kids need to know you are serious and the starting point of your actions is THAT high.

🤔I’m just confused why he ain’t get slapped in his mouth first then explain what you’re not getting for your words! ( as a man one of our most powerful gifts to the world is our words) so as my son you will think before you speak! Especially to your mother! Idk ima 80’s baby! Respect n discipline goes together 🤷🏽‍♂️ They took ass whippings away now kids have no fear for their actions or even their lives! Smfh it’s really sad

Dad should have made him talk about all the things his mother does on a daily basis. As a matter of fact, he needs to be apologizing to his mother. I am glad stood up for his wife, some me don’t
