They had to sleep outside tonight

Kids.

This word start to give me chills down my spine ever since my cousins came to stay with us. They have taught me how children who are not disciplined & taught properly can turn out into huge problems. Not academically, but personality, attitude and manners. How would they be when they grow up?

Please do not give birth to children when you are not able to take care of them. They are parents responsibility. What they are in the future is what you tell them or form them NOW. What they learned for the past 8-11 years I do not know, but trying to teach them the correct thing now is super hard for them, and us.

Is it so hard to tell the truth? What you really want? Or is it us who are not their parents that's why? What is the problem?

They triggered my mum's red button today. Yesterday they had to finish writing 500 sentences of the things they had done wrong (yesterday also got punishment). If it is not done, no TV, no computer games, no allowance and no dinner for tonight, as the dateline was yesterday. When we came back, cartoon network was playing on TV, there's bowl on the table, and both of them are nowhere to be found on the writing table.

There goes the questioning. The excuses does not match, very obvious they lied, blaming each other, and the stuff they were suppose to do were not done, and they did all the things they were forbidden to do. First, there was the 'shooting', using multiple ties of rubber band and 'shoot' them, where? on the cheek. Secondly, sleep outside. It's been a while since the last time me & my siblings slept outside, this reminded me my old days memories. Any sane person would not want to repeat that.

But I doubt there will be any improvement after this. An old cow is more stubborn than a new born calf. We shall see more dramas to come..
