The only people to blame is this new generation of parents who seem to give in to the kids demands just to avoid having to do any parenting.

But her mother Tracey, 40, is not punishing her for the letter and has vowed to meet her daughter's demands saying: 'You don't want to get on the wrong side of Mekeeda.'

'I know it sounds like she is spoilt but I like to get my daughter what she wants also you don't want to get on the wrong side of her.'

Something is very wrong with these statements. Very, very wrong. Sounds to me like she could use a good ol' fashioned backhand :dunno:.

Was just about to post that, Dan. Sickening. Be a f*cking parent.

I'm thinking this is a joke. No parent would let that fly, and no news agency would condone it by running it. I'm expecting an April Fools kinda thing coming out around Christmas.

Apparently you know little of the British tabloids. They'll print anything and I mean anything.

Yeah there are a few of us that are ok I grew up in the Marine Corps with my father a career roughneck and I spent my time in the infantry I know my place I've had more than my fair share of ass beatings.

So this is a tabloid?

If that's the case then I put nothing past them, the same as National Enquirer, etc. They'll post about how Elvis was an alien and got Mary Kate Olsen pregnant last week.

the uk dailymail????:nodlaugh:

 

[terrantheman]

That is FUCKED UP!!! My daughter said the reindeer should eat her!

What 13 year old still believes in Santa and writes him letters?

 

[Burning Man]

It's probably too late to straighten that kid out. You'll end up with bruises on your hands and the kid still won't listen. If you don't teach them respect early on you definitely won't get it done when they are almost grown.
My 2 cents

 

[criollo]

This sounds like a put-on to me. A 13 year old actually believes in Santa Claus? This girl is not exactly portrayed as the naive and innocent type! The "menacing look" in her picture, and the photo with her mother while holding a little Christmas tree look posed.

This could appear in "The Onion" in the US

I don't really see the problem...

I mean, clearly she meant well in providing for the homeless - most kids wouldn't do that.

And not to ruin the magic of Christmas for anyone (Bob), but do 13 year olds anywhere still believe in Santa?

 

[hdroadglide]

i am merely passing on interesting articles that i read. can't vouch for anything more than that.
and leave santa out of it!!!!

 

[strife]

...and leave santa out of it!!!!

Seriously! Easy on the believing in Santa stuff, there could be little kids reading this thread!

 

[srduggins]

My wife never liked lying to the kids, even about this S.C. stuff, so she told them the truth early in life (before age 5) - they didn't believe her.

 

[Alwayslit]

Highly doubt if this is legit.......but good thing they have gun laws in GB.

You'll end up with bruises on your hands and the kid still won't listen.

1) Belts don't bruise
2) I got $10 says I won't listen to her more than she won't listen to me.
