The first story does have an update. Basically, OPs sister did finally realize OP was right and what she was doing wasn't gentle parenting. The BIL also wasn’t on board the whole time. The sister agreed to adjust her parenting and they agreed to stay in hotels until the kids behavior got better.

@@jordanmchighlander9365 *regular. And to answer your question, it essentially is regular parenting. It’s best known as “Authoritative Parenting”, one of four kinds of parenting. It’s referred to as “Gentle Parenting”, compared to the “No more wire hangers, ever!”parenting from previous generations. Unfortunately “gentle parenting “ gets confused with “Permissive Parenting” where the kids are allowed to do whatever they want. “Authoritarian Parenting”, also known as “Tiger Parenting”, is pretty well known and terrible. And then there’s “Uninvolved Parenting”, where the kids pretty much are practically on their own for everything, pretty much known as “Neglect”.

Drunkeness and loud behavior at 2:00 a.m. is just TOTALLY WRONG. There is no excuse for that kind of behavior. If you're going to live in an apartment complex, you have to be more considerate of those who also live in that building. It's outrageous to even hint that anyone else should just accept being unable to sleep at night, especially when one is working and studying for exams. Loud, drunk and disturbing everyone else is NOT acceptable in an apartment building EVER!

Story 1: OP is not a jerk here and had every right to kick the sister and the kids out of the house. I would also be sending them a bill for all the damage that was done here. That is totally unacceptable. Also, what is this "gentle parenting" nonsense here? That sounds like non-existant parenting to me. If those kids are acting like this at 3 and 5, then just imagine what they'll be like at 13 and 15. The sister is 100% setting them up for failure here. OP has nothing to regret or feel bad about here. Also, the OPs mom needs to back off here if she thinks for a second that the OP is in the wrong here. Story 2: OP isnt a jerk here.... and if John really was a good friend here, then he would be much more understanding with everything going here, with the upcoming wedding and the OP being pregnant. Life happens, dude, get over yourself. If anything, John should be more supportive here, rather then being bitter then he isn't getting the OPs undivided attention here. John deserves no part in the OPs life after this. Story 3: Gee, Gina, i wonder why the OP wouldnt like you. You are a terrible aunt and sister here. If i were the OP and that was my house, i would've thrown her out for her attitude here. I know i did a lot for my late father when he was going through cancer treatments and no one in the extended family even remotely acted like Gina here. I would've given Gina a big piece of my mind before throwing her out, along with going zero contact with her. Story 4: Yeah, its always a huge red flag when someone doesnt want to introduce their family to you.... mainly because that person is trying to shield you from the craziness in their family. The OP should've left well enough alone at first. While the parents seem alright, the OP should be in zero contact with Lisa here. She is just a vile person. The fact that Lisa would refer to the OP as "that thing" is beyond rude and i know i would've wanted nothing to do with her after that. Also, why on earth is Mark even remotely listening to Lisa here? Its one thing to relay what she is saying, but to start listening is another. This relationship souds extremely rocky and i would probably call the engagement off if things dont improve. Story 5: OP is not a jerk at all here, the sister is. This marriage was doomed right from day one. I still cant understand why a new person comes into someone's life like this, particularly childrens, and just immediately assume that they are going to like you and want you to be a new or replacement parent. That just a delusional way of thinking. Also, with the sister saying she was glad the kids mom was gone was just disgusting.... no wonder they didnt like her, and the ultimatum she gave her now ex was also majorly wrong. Why would he pick her over the kids? OP has done nothing wrong here, and i know i wouldn't support the sister at all here.... she is 100% in the wrong here. Also, im willing to bet that the parents dont know half of the details told here either. The sister has more then likely told a watered down version. Story 6: No way is the OP a jerk here, those loud partygoers were. Im surpised other people didnt call the people before the OP did. It sounds like the individual that was arrested wasn't arrested for having the party, but for being unruly to the police when they were there... but of course, they would leave that detail out in their post. Also, if i were the OP, i would've threatened to call the police on the women that came by for harassing you and threaten you at your door. Let them know that you arent intimidated and you wont back down.

at a pre school i work at we did not call it time out, we had a thinking chair, we would tell the kids they need to sit in the thinking chair (no more that the minutes they are years old) and think about what they did. I found it worked well it give the kids a cool off peroid and if we asked the kids why they did a certain thing they could tell us and some could even tell us why it was wrong. I would not go as far as my boss and make the kids say they were sorry and not mean it. But what the sister in story 1 was not doing a good job of parenting.

When I was in middle school my mom’s friends came to visit and brought their own kids (around the same age as me) and my mom made the mistake of saying “make yourselves at home.” They did. Let there dog crap everywhere, ate food that was set aside and allotted for certain recipes. And when I said “hey don’t eat that, moms using it for such and such” they literally answered “Your mom said make ourselves at home.”

Story 1: That is NOT gentle parenting. Gentle parenting is about being aware of your own behaviour, and the behaviour you model for your child. It encourages building strong connections, empathy, respect, and compassion and focuses on guiding your child towards appropriate behaviours because they are capable beings. Gentle parenting still requires consequences for the child's actions, it's just about explaining why the consequences are necessary, and what is expected of the child going forward.

This is ridiculous way to raise children. When someone is visiting, you abide by the rules of the homeowner. The first time someone did something like drawing on the walls with crayon. That's not something I would ever tolerate. It's a shame to allow children to grow up without discipline are spoiled brats and will destroy anything that belongs to someone else but will raise he__ if someone destroys their stuff. I just don't understand that philosophy. I'm just not into allowing children to set the rules of their behavior. Children don't have boundaries for behavior -- they have to be taught to behave!

No not the jerk for calling the cops especially when there are noise variances all over the United states. Most places including several apartment complexes damn near all apartment complexes have laws and rules written down in their contracts that say you cannot make loud noises after 10 or 11:00 p.m. at night because that's when the time most people are trying to sleep and also people have children so they have to get up and go to school. And quite frankly if these people keep approaching you I would contact the apartment complex and I would also warn them that they can be evicted. So yeah good luck with being temporarily arrested but when you're permanently kicked out of your home because you're a loud JEEK yeah you're going to really have a good time then.

Gentle parenting is not in fact gentle parenting. It is not even a form of parenting in any sense. It's just a straight-up refusal to parent your child. And those two kids are going to be in for a VERY rude awakening when they learn that not a damn person in the world outside of their parents gives a damn about their feelings.
