My dad has a girlfriend, who has a grandchild that comes over almost every day. To make a long story short, the kids a ****ing brat, running around the house shouting and becoming hostile/confrontational when told no. His favorite thing to do is pick something up and threaten to break it when he doesn't get his way. You know how you can tell what kids will wind up incarcerated as an adult in the future by the way they act now?
Anyway, the way this kid acts, sometimes I just want to pick him up by the neck and break his teeth, since force seems to be the only thing he understands. But he's not mine, and even if he were, I would not feel comfortable doing that to any child. I am a pacifist, but still find myself thinking violent thoughts when this 4 year old little hellion tells me no in my own home.
The mother is nowhere to be found usually, and I have found myself playing babysitter quite often now. I'm thinking about banning the kid from the house. ACS might not do anything about it because the mother works and doesn't do drugs (as far as I know). Any help with this?
