Jewish Tyke Learns Passive Aggressive Approach To Conflict Resolution

Working with younger kids, I'm privy to all sorts of creative methods kids partake in to test limits/boundaries. Consequently, I'm also privy to the varying approaches their parents employ to discipline their children when they misbehave. The all-time favorite approach would be the time-out. I'd argue it's not all that effective, but it's still one of the more popular tools for reigning the kids in. After all, we can't go around judging other parents if we start giving our own children shiners. This past week, DadTalk reprimanded his son, Seth, for nagging about wanting to watch TV. Seth then retaliated by inventing a word and proud Jewish papa was so impressed, he nearly called Merriam-Webster, but decided he had a few more years of busting Seth's balls before he'd officially sucked the manhood out of him and could start building his ego back up again. Nonetheless, we like Jeckerbecker and congratulate Seth for learning the Jewish way of conflict resolution at such a young age. Beside, Jeckerbecker sounds like a fitting term for a Jewish dad "who doesn't let kids do what they want" and we think Seth should be allowed to watch a little Calliou from time to time. It won't harm his emotional, mental, or physical well-being or stunt the growth of his genitalia, dad. We promise. Spitting, however, is just wrong.
