Come and get you some. You know it's good
on these hot summer days.

And it's Pre-Sweetened. And somehow "dietary" as well.

While occasional yelling is common in American families, parents who constantly yell at their children are subjecting their children to emotional abuse that researchers say can be as harmful as physical abuse. A 2001 study in the American Journal of Psychiatry involving 49 people with depersonalization disorder (a mental disorder in which a person has a feeling of detachment or estrangement from one’s self) and 26 emotionally healthy people, found that yelling and other forms of emotional abuse was a more significant predictor of mental illness than sexual and physical abuse.

Good to see you guys agree, hopefully you both learn and evolve and don't use yelling as a form of discipline.

But then again, you do tend to gang up on posters you disagree with, so maybe your children are doomed.

Don't any of you 'ever' yell at a child. I was yelled at when I was a little boy and well into my teens. It took me years to learn to not lose my temper anymore. I still do every once in a great well, but the point is, it can wreck a kid. To this day, I have a hard time with agrressive people, especially those who want you to lose it. There is such a thing as healthy agression, but I can't handle any agression. I'm talking about in person. So don't ever holler at a kid. Talk to them and give them an assignment, a challenge to do good for themselves. They'll respond to that, because they are still innocent and trusting and they want to learn, so it's important to them. Just thought I'd add that on to this topic.
