gah!!! Parenting dilemma. Kids behaving badly... So... I go an say "If you don't stop, we'll kill the cat..." They stop... but within minutes... they're back at it. Now if you don't follow through you know you're totally hosed... So, now I have to kill the cat. I'm looking for suggestions on humane ways to end her little furry life. Oh come on!!! However... the issue remains illustrated. Don't threaten your kids with stuff you're not actually GOING TO DO!! Believe me... they remember. And you pretty much become your own worst enema!!!
