Happy Wednesday almost the weekend!!!!

so next question is

Q : Who will be the disciplinarian in your household?

A: for me growing up ( 100 % Italian ) my parents were very strict all around and i think that i will def be the one to be the disciplinarian but i used to think my DH wouldnt be because the environment he grew up in was so opposite from me and lax about everything. but seeing him lately with our nieces and nephew, i can see the ways he wants his children to be raised and him being more strict in certain ways. which is nice because i think its good to have a balance of that in different areas for the children growing up.

Re: ~QOTD~ 8-17-11

Hmmm - good question!!


Well being a teacher, I see myself being more of the disciplinarian, since I work with kids all day. Especially when they are younger. I think DH might be a better disciplinarian when they get older. Although he is quite a mush! I'm not sure, but I am certainly interested to see how it turns out!

Re: ~QOTD~ 8-17-11

I am the disciplinarian. DH can be stern but I am definitely the "bad cop"!

Re: ~QOTD~ 8-17-11

ME ALL the way! DH can't even discipline our dogs without laughing. He even says it himself, if we EVER have a girl...that's it, he's done - he won't be able to say no to her!!

I have got my work cut out for me

Re: ~QOTD~ 8-17-11

I think it will be a 50/50 rold for DH and I. But I think I will be the Inforcer! I can see him letting our children get away with allot..he hates to see anyone in trouble!!!

Re: ~QOTD~ 8-17-11

I think it will be me.. DH thinks he would be but I beg to differ.

Re: ~QOTD~ 8-17-11

Definetly me. I am a very organized, controlled person (went to school for teaching too). DH will be the fun parent. He is very easygoing.

Re: ~QOTD~ 8-17-11

DH. he's also the ONLY disciplinarian in his entire school! so sad!

he's got our dog trained really well. lol

Re: ~QOTD~ 8-17-11

i think 50/50 but I can see that we will probably be strict with difference things!

Re: ~QOTD~ 8-17-11

DH has already elected me to be the "bad cop." His reason is that I'm a teacher and have a lot of babysitting experience

When I was growing up, my mom was definitely the disciplinarian and we knew if she gave us "the look" she was not happy! But my sister and I also knew that if she mentioned that she was going to tell dad, or "wait until your father gets home" we knew we were in really big trouble. They both took turns being the "bad cop." It was a nice mix.

I once wanted to drive in a snow storm to my boyfriend's house (now DH) and my dad was so mad at me, he slammed his hand on the coffee table. I then ran upstairs to my room and slammed the door, well he chased me upstairs and got in my face like I've never seen before...I think I pooped my pants!!

Re: ~QOTD~ 8-17-11

I think we DH is because he gets stern with our nieces and they aren't even 2 yet!!

Re: ~QOTD~ 8-17-11

I am not sure. My DH had strict parents, where mine were laid back. In terms of jobs, however, I have been in charge of many people and have had to deal with employees/patrons misbehaving.
