Has this happened to anyone else?

So, a few night ago, my 5 year old daughter and I were having a "discussion" about her bath time. While we are going back and forth, she holds up the stop sign and in her best impression of me, say that's enough! I say huh? What are yo... She cuts me off and says that's it, you're gone. And she dumps me and does a 180 and walks away.

Not sure about your house rules, but do you have to serve a one-bath suspension too?

[James Walker]

The president aka SWMBO, said no suspension, just don't let it happen again. Or I'd be restricted to the couch.

Did she do her paperwork on your ejection?

My oldest son dumped me during a backyard wiffle ball game, but never my daughter as she knows I am always right.

Someone has been watching dad umpire or she has been to a few clinics I see.

Haven't had that happen, but I almost had my own misuse of the EJ mechanic. We run a small youth camp every summer. I was administering a sporting event during the camp and one of the kids was whining about something. My first instinct was to turn and dump her...luckily I restrained myself. Pretty sure I would've had to have dumped her mom too who was instigating most of the whining...

Would've been a little awkward at church the next Sunday if I'd dumped them...

SWMBO was ragging me about something or another. I defended my stance.She kept insisting I was wrong. I told her to knock it off. She kept on. I crow hopped when I dumped her in the foyer. She wasn't amused.

So you just restricted to the bench.

My story is a few weeks ago my son (who turns 8 tomorrow) was riding my last nerve. And he finally crossed the line and I told him to go to his room. I noticed as I was doing this I was giving the ol underhand hook to him and had to do my best not to laugh at myself and remain serious looking to him.
