  21. Beat I suppose, but it's actually not d fault of d child. We as adult should learn how to give a child crayon, pencil or a pen accompanied with a book. Or chalk and a board from a very young age. Once d child starts demanding for writing materials, we should help programme der brains dat pen goes with paper, chalk with board.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Educate her on the difference btw a wall nd a drawing board while i Buy a big board and drawing stuffs for her.

  102. Linda it is normal. Every parent should expect that. 3 weeks after repainting my house my son decided to turn to an artist and drew one big 8 and three small ones in our bedroom. He was revising what his teacher taught him in school. He was just 3 yrs old. But as a parent, all we can do is keep correcting them.

    ReplyDelete

    So what would i do? What my parents did to me laugh, shake their head. Tell me not to do it again & move on. These r material things I'm-kids r more precious

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  134. My wall at home is decorated with this. You can only take the crayon/pencil from them and keep it out of their reach. Let them know it's not for the wall but their books. But the funny thing is that the drawings are fond memories of my child growing up. I am sure most of us did this too

    ReplyDelete
  135. I will buy a written board and worn never to use the wall again.

    ReplyDelete
  136. Would do nothing

  137. It depends on the age of the child. if the child is over 3yrs, I will apply some strokes of cane if less just scolding.

    ReplyDelete
  138. I will beat the hell out of him or her to make it known that it is not good after that I will place a chalk board on that same spot for him or her to write one.

    ReplyDelete
  139. I Wil encourage her..she's got talent

    ReplyDelete
  140. It would not be funny but I would not take it out on the child, I remember doing the same as a child and my parents didn't go nuts. I would however, let the child know it is wrong and paint my wall. If it continues, the butt would be mine

    ReplyDelete
  144. Not funny at all. Give him slap on his bumbum. He does not stop him not to do it again. I have brought a board but it seem d wall has more fun for him to do it. Lol

    ReplyDelete
  145. I will buy her a board where she can paint and express her thoughts well while telling her not to paint on the wall. More so I will like to encourage her to share an explain her thoughts when she draws. The walls can be taken care of

    ReplyDelete
  157. It happens all the time in my house. Even though i get angry at each point i always console my self because thats a price one pays to give his/her children education. Afterall a whole lot of couples are praying to have their children scribble on the wall bit unfortunately, they've got nobody to do it.

  171. The child is doing d right thing on a wrong place.if i bought a board for her already then i will spank her,but if i didnt i will correct her verbally

    ReplyDelete
  172. MMMMmmmm my dear, greetings!
    It had been some how long i commend on this site. For this situation, it's understood and that is one of the reasons we do have children’s room and it must be painted with oil paint where it can be wash with water. It's normal thing that a child will practice on the wall instead of making use of his/her book. However, in the situation where the parent have a confined place (one or two room apartment) they should get a white board for their child.
    NO BEATING PLEASE, BUT TALK TO THE CHILD!
    Thanks
