What not to do and say to little children.


Take a little tween-year-old who frequently gets spanked. One day, when she was ready to be reprimanded, she spanked herself. She should have spanked her parents and said, “Bad Parenting!”

A mother took her three-year-old Maggie to the playground after she picked her up from the sitter. She was playing in the sandbox, and her mother said, “Maggie, we have to go home now.”

Maggie kept playing in the sand, ignoring her mom. Her mother finally picked Maggie up and said, “Why aren’t you answering me?”Maggie said, “My name is Cinderella.”

“Why do you want to be called Cinderella?”

“Cinderella is good. Maggie is bad.”

Maggie’s mother found another sitter for her daughter.
