1\ She said, I am going to KFC.
I said, how about Sushi?
She said, I am going to KFC.
I said, I thought you love Sushi?
She said, I must go to KFC.
I said, but you already had Burgerking yesterday.
She said, I have to go to KFC.
While I was thinking how to convince her not to eat the junk food so often...she said, how about we vote? Before I agree she was already asking:who would like to go to Sushi? I hurried up raised both of my hands and thought girl I am not that stupid.... Then she said, who would like to go to KFC? I put down both of my hands, she raised up both of her hands, plus one of her feet.
2\In the elevator, morning rushing time, full people, old, middle age...young...like most of the mornings, my neighbors stay quiet in the small elevator.
Suddenly she fart, not that loud but all of us heard of it. None voiced out a word.
She looked up at me and said: mom, you fart. Not that loud but all of us heard her too.
Two women started to giggle....
I couldn't say a word but I really wanted to say: you are such a little monster.

Comment by Half moon on May 12, 2012 at 12:18pm June, I am sure you will meet and have great time together, a cute monkey and a little monster, lol ;-P
Comment by Cynic The Troll on May 12, 2012 at 9:41am You are right, the people of Thailand are very polite and the children, fir the most part, are very well behaved. China (and the USA) could learn a few things from a country they see as inferior to them.
Comment by snowblaze on May 12, 2012 at 9:39am I guess you've seen plenty of very well behaved children in Thailand Cynic, something I really appreciate in this country.
As the guardian journalist says: "if we empathise too much with our children that it becomes intolerable to punish or limit them, this is terrible for the child. If you believe your main objective is to be liked by your child, you are in big trouble."
Comment by Cynic The Troll on May 12, 2012 at 8:58am Wow, for the first time I actually agree with a Frenchman. Well said snowblaze.
Comment by snowblaze on May 12, 2012 at 8:30am Hehe, nobody likes to hear that he dosen't raise his children in the right way, isn't it?..
But then, your post was about your failures, so you could expect to receive answers like mine. Obviously, my answer was to brutal to be welcome. Honnestly, I don't care. Most of Chinese parents live in complete denial that they are spoiling their child. You are no exeption and look no worse nor better than any other Chinese mum to me.
For your information, all the "westerners" do not have the same tactics when it comes to raise a child. If it can comfort you, I come from France where apparently most of the people tend to be a little bit tougher than in anglo-saxon countries:

Comment by snowblaze on May 11, 2012 at 10:15pm Agreed 100% with Charles & GrandPa.
Remember when you were a child? Did you often go to the restaurant? Did you choose which one to go?..
Letting a child with no ability to judge what is good for her making decisions is insane.
On top of that you let her lie in public.. Hmm great effort, little monster will soon become big ~

Stop asking non sense questions and speaking for herself. No need to be dictator either. Just tell her What is junk food and effects on health. Or simply tell her, she will be ugly if she keeps eating that.
Otherwise, not a monster but you will just have a spoiled daughter soon.
Comment by Back in the Nutsack on May 11, 2012 at 11:13am Hm... Come to think of it, my dad used the same tactics towards me. Now I do it to him. It's funny.
