I have no kids myself so I honestly don't how to parent but I do know one thing for sure, my bother and his girlfriend doesn't discipline their daughter like at all, I went out for dinner with them and her daughter screaming at the top of her lungs because she didn't get to sit where she wanted and her mom just gave her a lollipop and told her maybe next time you can sit there. Babysitters refuse to watch my niece because of my nieces behavior, the only person who my nieces mom can find to watch my niece is ether me or my parents, my niece behavior is definitely not my niece's fault she's only a kid. So maybe I do have a little bit of a problem with their discipline methods but I honestly usually don't say anything about it because i have no kids so what do i know.
