I used to have this problem when I was younger. The kids used to abuse of my kindness and patience taking my things and joking at me. So one day I told them to stop, and even that wasn't enough. Then, I stood up and said "The first son of a gun who does that again will be punched on the face, do I make myself clear?" From that moment on, they started respecting me. Bullying, it's tough, so that's why we need to be tougher than that.]]> 2023-08-22 20:51:04 UTC https://padlet.com/hotestevam/20721fuph4ln228a/wish/2669236123 hotestevam https://padlet.com/hotestevam/20721fuph4ln228a/wish/2669311924 I was on an exam week at University and I was giving that for Data Structure discipline. During the exam, a friend appeared at the classroom door because he was trying to catch up about a Rock show we had gone to. Before I start talking to my friend, I told my students that I was talking with my friend but I would keep an eye on the class. After 10 min, I saw a fast movement. Immediately, I shouted “If I see another movement like that I will cancel this exam and I will do another one even more difficult than this.

In a hard way, he said. "Junior, When will you marry my daughter? You are delaying it a lot." I counted till ten and I thought in what I should say in reply. "Ailton, Josi and I are studying, maybe we should first graduate before getting a family. After all we are the first to get that in both families. Besides We are still paying for our marriage..

Last year we had an argument about politics and he had a different opinion from mine.

For example, being strict with our children, when they don't help around the house or don't do their school homework. But it is necessary. It's more difficult when only one person does that. So I'm always the boring one but, I don´t care. When necessary, I remind my daughter of her obligations. Yesterday, for example, I was studying math with her and she didn't understand the subject. I said "You are not going to Maracanã to see Flamengo because you were bad at some subjects. Study more, learn, how to be responsible, or you will never go to Maracanã or go out with your friends.

Well, every Christmas is the same thing, my grandmother tries to make my mother eat meat and make her feel uncomfortable. This Christmas was different, this time, she tried to put a meat in my mother's dish as a "joke", then, she started doing things like "eat that! don't be so serious!" and my dad said "Enough! I will not tolerate that in my house again! stop doing that to her! Do I make myself clear?!" and the house became a big silence.

But I feel really bad about it and I always say that I don't have time. My husband keeps saying that I'm making excuses, because if I really wanted to go to the gym, I would. The truth is, he's right, but I can't admit that... LOL. I just keep repeating to him, 'I'm not going to the gym because I can't, do I make myself clear?
