“Good, he probably deserved it.”

Eventually all parents have to deal with their kids starting to whine. According to child experts, most kids don’t even know they are whining because they are overwrought with emotions. Experts recommend mocking your child and whining back. Sheila Oliveri, a mother and school teacher had this to say:

Whyyyyyy are you taaaalkingg like thaaaaaat? You’ll show her exactly how irritating whining is, and you may make her laugh, which will make her forget why she was complaining in the first place.

Or you can take the advice of Tania Johnson, OverAdulthood’s resident mother of eight and recovering crackhead:

If he gonna whine, you just gotsta beat the whinin out of him.

Succinct and sweet.

Kids fear: me.
