Pouting - does it affect you?

The pouting affects me different than it does the wife.
She caves and gives in to their begging, when I am just the opposite I become more intolerant of their behavior.

I believe you both should be scared. They will easily come to see that shoes, makeup, clothes, and all things girly is the best thing ever and beg for Auntie SD time. :taunt
Hey, if you're buying when should I have her over there? :laugh

:)) I really am as bad as Lisa. I see something cute and reminds me of one of my gf's girls and I get it. They swear they are going to hurt me :poke2 but I can't help it! Those looks of immense joy from the little ones are just so wonderful to see. :love

Not when the pouting and the begging are combined.

I don't do begging. That is off putting. Pouting though...I can't help it. (since I might pout at times too)

Yeah, I tend to go in the opposite direction of le pout. If they're truly in distress, it's one thing. But if they're just pouting, uh-uh. Homey don't play that guilt-trip/manipulation game.

Ditto

Pouting, begging and whining all are things I can walk away from...with ease.

Triplets.

When Baby Bunny sticks that lower lip out... I tell her that a bird is gonna poop on it. :))
 
See, y'all misunderstand. This was very subtle - the girl has this mastered!! To me, she just looked sad for no apparent reason. This wasn't a bottom lip sticking out kinda pout, it was a sad face on a sweet girl. And, she's usually happy and smiling so when she just looked sad, I got worried about her.

THEN she reeled me in........

Our daughter is good at getting what she wants. BBG is the worst at giving in!

Little girls usually can work daddy like that. I know from experience; she's 25 and still has me wrapped.
 
If I wanted something, I asked. If I pouted, begged, whined or tried to manipulate for it, the answer would always be no.

I have treated the kids to something special, or something they wanted, but only as reward for an accomplishment or because I love them & want to give it to them.
