Not considering much traveling with my boys until both are manageable - I will vomit blood if I tell them no and they assumed that I am just playing with them...

Eldest at 22 months now, every time I told him not to repeat something wrong sternly, he will say "OK" and then repeats it again... I am assuming that this will continue until he is around 3+ year old and since youngest is only 5+ months, I am guessing temporary ban on foreign travels for next 2-3 years time minimally.

Hahaha, mine has this habit of playing very roughly with his toys and should I ignore him, he would use them and hit me with it. I am officially terrified to ignore him now when he was last seen with such toys.

Note: Unable to punish/whack him yet and his loving grandma don't believe in hitting the kids.

I am waiting till he is 2+ before I will start with physical punishments. Now a bit susah cause he can't even understand why I hit him in the first place.

I also think so, would rather punish him now than to see him growing up to be a spoiled brat. Mine loves the grandma the most, every time I force him to sit with me until grandma is free, he would cry and ask for grandma lol.

I plan to force him to sit with me in the emergency stair case area until he chill/calm down else we gonna spend time at the staircase till we go home. This is provided that grandma (to note, she's my mom-in-law) is not around lol, when she's around, she tends to disagree with how I plan to deal with my kids.

Grats! Wish you and your wife a smooth delivery and a healthy/happy baby as well

I will listen and only apply whatever that I can agree with - so far so good

Just in case those who are wondering if they should whack their kids, this is a research specifically for it:

Spanking and Child Development: We Know Enough Now To Stop Hitting Our Children

Personal preference, I will continue to whack my boys (when necessary) regardless whatever said.

If they are the ones who gonna help jaga the baby most of the time, it is really not easy to argue much - after all, they will be the one to jaga most of the time =(

I have similar issues on my end and most of the time, I just diam. Haih.
