DCM is teaching her 2 year old son to say " I'm a punk a$$." What the heck is wrong with parents these days. If any of you can recall this is the same DCB who came with the blue hair.

Wow. I am speechless!! -
I'd be asking that mother why she felt the need to teach him that...
I think once she saw someone who didn't think it was "Cute" she'd rethink teaching him that. I just couldn't hold back if a parent thought that was ok...Comment

I had one family with very strong ties to the ghetto. Her friends thought it was so cute to teach him ghetto slang and attitude at 2 1/2. He came in one day saying, "I gonna kick yo a$$, bi-aaatch."
I haven't seen them in 6 years, curious what they're like now.Comment

I had 2 boys like that once. They are brothers. The parents, mainly the dad, taught them to say all sorts of negative slang ghetto things. I, however, was able to make them all learn that the boys could not speak that way or act violently in my daycare. They also had the boys ages 2 and 3 when I began watching them, playing all sorts of violent video games. I kept telling them that the boys will get in big trouble if they talk and act that way in school. In kindergarten, the older boy wound up being expelled off bus and suspended a few times! After that, they started trying to get the boys to speak and behave properly!Comment

I think that some parents either think it is cute and funny OR this is their attempt to teach their kids from a young age to do their own thing and not be mainstream. They mistakenly think that disrespectful behavior shows their kid is a leader and fearless. they also dont consider that these kids will turn on them before too long and not respect the parents either.
I know one mom that regularly tells her school age daughter to do what she wants, encourages her to tell adults no, supports her daughter when this little one regularly gets into trouble for being a bully. Mom says that she is teaching her daughter not to let anyone tell her what to do and that her daughter is a leader. This girl is rude, a bully, aggressive and completely disrespectful WITH the moms support!Comment

Many years ago we were house parents at a children's home. We had a 2 year old (he might have been 3) who would get mad and say "I's going to cut you with a knife". He didn't get mad any more often than a normal toddler, this was just his phrase. I have to wonder what horrors he must have seen at home to have learned that so early. This was decades before video games and cable tv, so he had to hear it from a person.
I've often wondered what happened to him. He was such a nice little boy, but he had experienced so much so soon. I hope the nice part won out over the genetics part.Comment

I had a very tiny 18th month old who came everyday wearing brand new size 5t clothes. I would have to change him into my sons clothes when he got here. The parents refused to see the saftey end of it and only thought of "fashion"

I don't know but I bet her brother is the guy that playfully head butts his kid. Not the sharpest tools in the shed.

I am not surprised!! I for one, would not want that influence around the rest of the kids let alone my own. I'm the kind of parent who, if I had my kids in a daycare and was witness to that kind of talk, would pull my kid out and put them somewhere else.
It could cause you to lose clients.Comment
