Seriously though, I'm glad to see some parental discipline, these days if you try to correct a child someone (typically a stranger) will accuse you of abuse. We always corrected ours and while they are not perfect we were able to go to nice restaurants, museums, movies or plays with them without incident.

Got off exit 6 on the NJ Turnpike and went ten or miles along that road. There was a mall and a cemetery near by. Oh I have a niece where finger sucking altered her teeth and speech. She got her teeth fixed but her speech has always been strange. Matthew is not nearly that bad. He doesn't actually suck his fingers; he just puts them in his mouth.Mannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15396201693030286919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833359394611156317.post-60468184698740790972015-07-25T21:37:21.234-04:002015-07-25T21:37:21.234-04:00Thanks Jan.

(cough) Were you in the city proper? <br />Seriously, though, my youngest daughter is now wearing braces because of a finger sucking habit when she was little. We tried many things, but hot sauce never occurred to us! A painful and expensive result. :/Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10847572866285311259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833359394611156317.post-74787620787473710212015-07-20T22:48:02.039-04:002015-07-20T22:48:02.039-04:00Funniest thing I've read all day:)
Sometime...Funniest thing I've read all day:) <br /><br />Sometimes after a discipline like that, there will be a couple of episodes of regression. You might find that just a gentle reminder, as in "hotsauce" spoken, will do the trick. That way it isn't an empty threat, and yet you don't have to subject your kids to a saucing every time.Jannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833359394611156317.post-68612844810336914612015-07-20T21:11:15.936-04:002015-07-20T21:11:15.936-04:00Thanks. :)Thanks. :)Mannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15396201693030286919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2833359394611156317.post-26863090453250640502015-07-20T16:41:11.851-04:002015-07-20T16:41:11.851-04:00Better be careful, Manny.
