Helping teach my children to behave in public…..?
I have almost 5 year old and a 2 1/2 year old. Boy and girl, in that order. I have noticed that my kids are louder (in our home) at times than other kids that are around their ages. My son is very loud around me and my husband, and we have told him about 1 gillion (yes, that is a technical term) to not run in the house, yet he still does it. No matter if he gets in trouble or not he will do it again within an hour. My daughter, is just as wild as my son I think be cause he is.
My husband is constantly getting them riled up, play wrestling, using sarcasm and light joking and I think that this has something to do with it but he thinks I am "over-reacting"
Any ideas on how t make my home more peaceful, yet a fun place for the kids to be?
Thanks!
A swift backhand to the side of the head will do them good.

discipling your son consistently and seriously until he displays a quiet and obedient spirit is the only way you will curb this problem.
when he begins to yell, cry, fuss, disobey or ask for attention, take him aside quickly and calmly when he has done wrong, and explain to him what ill he has committed and what his punishment will be. take him to his bedroom and have him take off his trousers and undergarments and lay across the bed or your lap while you sit. spanking outside the clothing and undergarments is not effective because it does not properly humiliate the child and it does not sting like it should to get the message across. spank him HARD with a stick, paddle or a board so that he does not learn to fear your hands when you touch him later in encouragement. spank him until he cries in submission but do not let him cry and manipulate for long after, he must submit cheerfully and accept his punishment without any trace of a poor attitude. when it is over and his will has been bent to your liking, hug him and comfort him.
do not let him or your daughter manipulate you! never be soft on them, or they will become wild and rebellious. the punishment must always be more painful and severe than is the benefit he gets from not behaving so that he fears it too much to risk disobedience.

You’re not using any consistency in your discipline, and you and Dad are on totally different pages when it comes to parenting and discipline. First, you and Dad need to sit down and hash out what you think is acceptable and what you think is not acceptable, and what punishments you will give for certain behaviors. Then follow through. I like Jo Frost’s time-out method (from ABC’s SuperNanny)–she gives a warning, and if the behavior continues, the child is placed into time out for one minute per year of age (so 5 mins for your son, 3 for your daughter). Once that time is up, you remind the child why they were placed into time out, get an apology, and hugs and kisses. You do that every single time the child does something wrong until they get the message.
Most important is for you and your husband to work together rather than against each other: right now your kids are confused because Mom is saying one thing and Dad is saying something different. Get on the same page and things will begin to go more smoothly.

let them be kids! unless they are really misbehaving and being disrespectful, dont restrict play. are you afraid he will hurt himself by running in the house?….guess what when you are not there he will run in the house. and guess what he is going to get hurt…all kids do….let them enjoy themselves, for soon they will be grown adults and going online to ask strangers questions about how to raise their kids

be more strict with them, and tell your husband not to get some riled up all the time ? tell him to keep it down cos your in need off peace and quite

Actually, you have 3 children. Your husband is not your partner in this venture, he is part of the problem and he must grow up and accept responsibility of raising your children too.
What are the rules about candy and other sweets in the house. They can be causing your children to be on sugar highs.
You husband has been gone all day and is happy to play with his children and that is okay for about 15 minutes inside the house. Any further horseplay can be outside and it will be good for their exercise too. Make the rule and stick to it……….or learn to live with it.

I’d suggest NOT attempting to humiliate them or break their spirit. Most kids respond well to reasonable discipline. Time outs work well in my house. Take all the toys out of the bedroom and when they misbehave send them to their room for whatever period of time you fell is reasonable. Kids will run in the house. Stop them and remind them not to, but most likely they’ll forget, It’s because they aren’t wired the way adults are. Just be consistent.
Also, If anyone knows that Lydia person and she has kids, I’d suggest printing a copy of this and calling child services before she does some serious damage.
