Phone? well if they're paying the bill thats fair enough...
Easy for me to say - controlling my 5 & 3yr old girls is still just about managable with simple bribery at the moment, but the writing is on the wall - I see LOTS of attitude growing already....

My 2 year old girl is going on 16 with attitude If she is told off for something, her reply is always 'i don't care'.
Gets it from my 6 and 10 year old boys - they are full of attitude (my 10 year old in particular)

Think positive. My 16 year old is a joy now. However she always has been, it's the 14 year old who turned my hair grey and now has the power to make it fall out

I think it's my younger son who has the scope in the future to turn my hair grey/make it fall out. But right now they are both a joy.

Will have to take your word for it Pen, some days I am surprised I am still sane, if I ever was of course (before anyone else pipes up!)

You tell off your kids about something and you remember your parents telling you off about the same thing.

They stop playing with Barbie and start looking like her instead.

You're gonna cop it!
That's the last time I'll tell you!
You can do it the easy way or the hard way!
Stop swinging on that chair!
Close the door! ...Were you born in a barn!
Right, bed!
What's the magic word?
If I have to stop this car there's gonna be trouble!
Tie your shoelaces!
Walk!
No!

I can remember saying 'what's the little word' to my daughter when she was small & she was asking for a drink but forgetting to say please. She stood & looked at me for a bit & thought & then replied 'sex' I nearly wet myself laughing!
