Children and tv remotes
Does anyone else have the problem of watching 5 things on the tv at the same time when a child has hold of the remote control?

Reece literally IS a 'control freak' he is in my bed watching MY tv, whilst watching.....wild at heart, batman, rush hour 2, pimp my ride and come dine with me....it really does drive me insane

i've tried taking the remote off him but the problem is, we have the same freeview box with the same remote downstairs and he keeps hiding that remote for when i confiscate the other off him.....i just cant win, its a good job i aint bothered about the telly tonight isnt it

Unplug the thing, pull the fuse, and tell him to behave or theirs no more tele. Should have put him in the frozen chest beore you sold it.
When my kids were little, I just snapped my fingers pointed upstairs and they went to bed no arguments.

AND I did'nt beat them, they just knew they could'nt win.

It isn't so much a kid thing but a man thing. 'im indoors never feels secure unless he has control of the doofer. I make sure that I'm in charge for Corrie and that sort of stuff and then my computer takes over and I leave him to it.
