What do you do if your child continues to burp out loud at the dinner table after you have punished him alot?

I think it depends on his age.  If he's younger, just ignore him.  It may be the attention you're giving him that keeps him going.

Food poisoning for sure-- you dont state his age but if he's under 5 you better really watch that he doesnt get dehydrated.  Get him to drink some gatorade in sips one hour after he has stopped vomiting.  If he continues to vomit, get emetrol from the drugstore- it  makes you stop vomiting- follow the instructions-- if he continues to the point he is dry heaving- ER!!

Babies burp too! And, they don't know how to give thanks. So, that burp is actually gas trapped between our esophagus and stomach. It wants to get out of the mouth. Otherwise, it gets out of the other end. Ha ha ha :) :)

#1 - wear that @SS out!!!!  Ground him - for at least a month - no phone, no tv, no video games, take away his I-Pod, anything and everything enjoyable.  Put him to work, cleaning, gardening, mowing the lawn, anything and everything.  When you run out of chores, give him extra homework to do.  No computer for anything BUT school work.  Uninstall instant messenger, ban him from myspace, etc.\n\nGive him an assignment - make him research the dangers of smoking.  Tell him that the better 'grade' you give him, you'll knock off up to 2 weeks tops on his being grounded. Tell him you want interviews with people who can't quit, with emphysema, pictures of diseased lungs, the whole shebang.  If he has to research this stuff himself, it will be more likely to 'stick'.\n\nMake sure his friend's parents are aware of what happened too.  Ban him from playing with this friend any longer, or at least until his grounding is over, and you've had a chance to have a 'heart to heart' with your son, his friend and his friends parents together.\n\nLast, let him know if you catch him smoking again, the punishment will be TRIPLED.

Tell her to stop eating so fast or talking too much while eating. It is caused by air going down her esophagus.

Just ignore them.  The only reason they keep doing this is because you are reacting.  If you quit giving them any change in your facial expression and quit saying anything to them about it and maybe just give them a laugh and walk off, they will stop.

Doesn't sound as though you can do much. Pointing it out to him or suggesting counselling will only add fuel to the fire right? On the other hand...who wants to be around someone who constantly complains, b*tches and brings everyones mood down because he's a jerk?\nYou can always tell him you're taking the kids and screwing because you can't tolerate this and it's cruel to the kids. Beware though. You call his bluff and he calls it....you'd better be ready to follow through or you'll never, ever gain any ground again.\nGood luck with Grumpy!

I would suggest counseling. Maybe this person does not know how they make you feel, or even if they do, they don't know how to stop. If they grew up in a household that was always yelling, then they don't know any other way to be. If you can't get the person into counseling, then you either find a way to deal with it or find a way to get out.

Listen yes, punish them- depends on what they say, not allow them to eat lunch NO. She can not prevent your son from eating lunch.

Yells at you MORE when hes with his family? Why is he yelling at you EVER??? This is totally disrespectful and you should not stand for it. You need to implement a "No YELLING" rule, none is allowed in the house. If he ever starts yelling, just turn and leave the room, leave the house if you have to. He will learn that it does not accomplish anything to yell. He is teaching your child bad things, and this should not be allowed. You need to come up with a better way to communicate. Counseling can help here if you don't feel you know any strategies to improve communication.

Set the rules and follow them no exception. He should know what he will get punished for and when he'll be rewared. I agree with the previous post about taking away a favorite toy, no TV works too. If he likes TV or a particular toy, give it to him after he's done his homework or something else as valuable as a reward, but not for too long.

Sounds like you need to watch what you say around him.  Punishing him would be silly considering he was just repeating what he heard and probably had no idea it was wrong.  Kids are like sponges - they are learning from everything they observe.\n\nI have found in situations like that that if you seriously expalain that what he said was not polite (I would explain exactly why - that saying that word is a vulgar way of talking about a girl's private parts, but I'll leave that to you).  It may need to be firmly repeated a few times.\n\nIf they get a rise out of you, that will only make it more exciting to say.

Yes! Let it go.  They want you to react to their pissing and moaning. Who cares if they sigh, as long as they're doing what you've asked them to do? They're playing their role and the children. You should stay strong and continue be the parent.

Tell your new "Mother" to shove it and shut the h*ll up.  Tell her off.  Tell her what ever you need to to make her stop talking like that.  If you are unable to or unwilling to.  Then looks like you got to tell your dad what's up or continue to bite your tounge.

Don't discipline her in using any way of violence. And don't abuse her either.\n\nOne good way to avoid future tantrums is to ignore them. Stay calm, lead her away from the aisle in the supermarket, take her on your arms. BUT ignore her. If she cried for a nothing, don't talk her or let her be on her own a bit.\n\nSome parents put their child in the naughty room when their child has a tantrum. It's basically just a quiet place with no toys, no TV, just a chair, etc. In there, she can cool down and you can pick her up again when all is over.\n\nIf that fails, distract her. Telling a child to smile will make a child smile and forget all their worries, a friend once told me. Try it.
