4. The parent (or authority figure) again deals with your behavior by (pick one)
Ignoring you
Screaming at you
Instructing you in a stern voice, again, to do exactly what they first asked you to do.
Grabbing you by the ear and throw you into, or pulling you out of the car
Giving into your demands of another cookie or six
Telling you that they never loved you, or worse, that Mommy/Daddy left home because they hate you and that they wish that you were never born.
Taking baby brother/sister out of harms way, and thus spoiling your plot to regain primacy in their hearts
Or, the ever popular, "Beat your *** with a belt/stick/wrench"
What kind of wussy parent wrote this?
