Disciplining Other People's Kids: Yes or No?

When I was growing up and misbehaved I was set straight by the parent in charge. And if my friends misbehaved at my house there were held accountable by my mom and dad. But these days the parenting rules about disciplining other kids have changed.

Absolutely!!!!!!!!! Here's the deal: We discipline our child and We expect you to discipline yours!! So, If you the parent(s) and kid(s) are at my house and your child doesn't like to you, I jump in and say - If you can't listen or respect your parent - You may go home because We don't allow our child to do that and we don't allow you to do it! So straighten up and fly right or go home!!!!!! Plus, it's our house our rules and we expect our child to respect your home and rules!!!!! Too many kids are ruling the roost today and parents are allowing it and they need to be MOM and DAD!!!!!!!
So, Go do the right thing!!!!!!!!

Depinds on what kind of discipline you are talking about. Better never lay a hand on another parents child... big trouble and obvious jail time. I will talk to them and and correct them ... maybe yell at them... but never ever spank them . Hell Cant even spank your own child without getting in trouble!!

9:43 is right, depends on your matter of discipline, but they're is an old saying that has been disregarded and that is that it takes a community to raise a child, not just the parent.

Lack of it is the problem. while no one advocates a physical discipline, other peoples kids need to be set straight... sent straight home.
