but how funny it is..... my son just spent a week and a half with his dad who spoils him rotten. whenever he comes home from an extended visit there, my son is a little tyrant for a few days, yellling, demanding, bossy, and more violent than I allow in my house. i've been watching him act this way for about two days now and constantly reminding him about the rules of this house. it usually takes him about four days to return to his normal self after his longer visits with his dad. well, he got mad at his sister (she's a year and a half older than him) for not doing whaat he wanted and punched her in the face...hehe hehe....and she SLAPPED THE SHIT out of him and gave him a bloody nose. of course, I was an adult about it. Everyone had to apologize and are gonna be on punishment tommorrow. I'm guessing he'll be back to normal sooner this time But DAMN that was funny, I giggled my ass off once the kids got in the bed. I guess you can tell which one of my kids is just like their mother.
