How do y’all inflict fear on spoiled brats?
Ok, I’ve babysat before, but this one? This is a different kind of human being—one with a lot less conscience. I need to know how to discipline them. And when I say 'inflict fear,' I don’t mean anything life-threatening or traumatizing—just enough so they know I’m not to be messed with.
As much as I’d love to punch and kick their asses (hypothetically, ofc), I can’t. One slap from them, and I’d be flying straight to Antarctica because, let’s be real, they’re built like a tank.
I have no idea how I ended up in this situation, nor do I understand why their parents entrusted me with someone who doesn’t even need babysitting. This teenager (14? 15? I don’t even wanna remember) looks like they could eat a whole house. I was only told to discipline them and watch over whatever they’re doinggg
Sighing while writing this forum cuz my peers are goin on a date rn meanwhile i’m stuck with this inhumane food vacuum. bUt yk… moneyyyyy
So yeah, help me out. Any advice? Any horror stories? I need to know I’m not alone in this.
Take evidence of their bad behaviour and threaten them with it. (Mostly depends on the parents and their kid power dynamic)
Call the parents what should you do when they're misbehaving. (Depends on you and the parents)
I mainly watch over toddlers and these usually help me deal with kids with toddler like behavior
