8. They never made it past the developmental stage of a 3 years old

When you are in the store and you tell your child 'no, you cannot have that toy' and they scream 'But I want it' over and over, crying and whining.

This is why they need to be treated like 3 year olds.

They need a time out. They need to sit in the corner and think about what they have done.

When they are ready to admit their mistakes and apologize for what they have done, we will let them off of time out.

But we certainly should not be buying any of their crap right now at all.
