Other peoples Kids.

I'm currently sat here, in my own home, seething, as some wretched little **** box is screaming up and down wiping its snotty hands on everything, ans systematically wrecking the Christmas decorations.

The wife is doing her best to be polite, I've resigned to the spare room because if the ineffectual mother of this brat doesnt get it under control, I'm going to smash its head in with a frying pan.

Am I over reacting?

Yes.

As is the case; one's own kids are angelic. Everybody else's demonic.

It's your house, say something about it instead of being a pussy

Jono8 · 22 Dec 2012 at 14:59

No. Kids are ****

Much better than hiding away in the spare room.

I thought this was going to be a Jimmy Savile thread

I'm too polite to say "sort your future gang member out you stupid fat cow".

I'm using this more to teach the wife a lesson, shes hating it and making all kinds of apologetic faces at me.

Yeah, shes got a lot of making up to do tonight.

Your gonna smash the kids face in before saying anything lol. You have good people skills....

I'd tell it to behave or call its mother and get it sent home

gillywibble · 22 Dec 2012 at 15:04

Do you know the parent in question? SPEAK TO HER!

chief barker · 22 Dec 2012 at 15:05

Get drunk and kick off!

Itchytrigg · 22 Dec 2012 at 15:06

It gets the kid to behave or it gets the hose again

^ This ^

Having said that we don't have any kids so our house isn't exactly child friendly either. I'd be well ****** off if some untrained offspring belonging to one of our friends was let loose in our house!

We usually visit them in their own homes - that way the can continue to run their grubby little fingers all over the television and feed sandwiches to the DVD player that belongs to their parents and it's not my problem!

At least you will have fun tonight.

No, but you are wasting time posting, GET THE ******* PAN!!!!

Tell the kid's parents to keep their drunken-one-night-stand under control or get out of your house.

On a serious note, say something but in a polite way.

1. So not even man enough for even a bit of passive-agression? It's your house, damn it!

2. Teaching you wife a lesson? What lesson is that?

3. Why does she have "making up" to do with you, Mr. Hide In The Spare Room?

I like the way you call the kid 'it'

Don't be angry at the kid... The kid doesn't know why he/she is annoying you, whereas the mother probably knows but she's just thinking 'oh it's what kids do'....

Say things to the mother in a joking way like "does your son/daughter wreck everything in your house as well?", "your house must be pretty sticky from your kid wiping his/her snotty hands on everything", "do you ever wear ear plugs at home so that you can't hear your kid screaming?"

Yea, use the pan on the mum first, but the kid get's it OK?

Why bother with the passive-agressive stuff? Just a polite, but firm: "Can you please control your child. I don't want him damaging my stuff. Thanks."
