THIS WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!(COMMENTS ARE WELCOME)
Dear
John,
My
husband and I are not on the same page on this one. I'd like some
input from you if possible. Last year on Christmas morning, my six
year old (now seven) threw a tantrum because he didn't get the game
he asked for. This tantrum went on for hours and it was quite
embarrassing to my husband since his parents were at our home for
this. His dad has “Old School” techniques that he suggested. My
husband declined and said he would parent his own way. This year
we've worked with our son on his temper and his tantrums, but I'm
afraid of what will happen Christmas morning this year, as once again
he is asking for games that we don't want him to play. We've had the
discussion so I think he knows he's not getting them, but my husband
and I do not agree how to respond if he does throw a fit again. My
in-laws will be with us again. My husband said he would spank our son
if he acts that way again. I don't want to go down that road because
I was abused as a child and I think it's the wrong way to handle it.
What are your thoughts? Any ideas on how we can avoid a problem here?
Sorry this is not a fun and easy letter, but I could sure use some
help!
Signed
– WorriedMomma

WEIRD NEWS:
The
Volusia County Sheriff's Office said that a 52-year-old Florida man
used a stolen identity to pay for $40,000 worth of dental work and to
buy a $10,000 puppy. Deputies said Timothy Powell told them he was
recruited by thieves who encouraged him to have his teeth extracted
and replaced with dental implants so he would look better for future
fraudulent transactions. Powell said the personal information of an
80-year-old DeBary man with dementia was bought on the dark web. The
victim's caretaker said she learned of the fraudulent purchases when
the victim received two bills from a South Florida dental clinic in
the mail. Investigators said Powell also used the victim's identity
to spend almost $10,000 on a French bulldog puppy. They said he made
large withdrawals from another victim's account at various Regions
Bank locations in Volusia County. Deputies said Powell's fingerprints
were discovered on paperwork at the dentist's office, and they
obtained photographs of him. Investigators said they are searching
for a possible second suspect who may have recruited Powell.

A
Hawaii-based burger chain has closed a Honolulu restaurant for
cleaning after a video posted to social media appeared to show a rat
being cooked on the grill. Teddy’s Bigger Burgers has closed the
Mapunapuna location and fired two employees who appeared in the
Snapchat video. Richard Stula, the president of Teddy’s Bigger
Burgers, stated “We are horrified that a former teenage employee
would conduct themselves in that way and make such a video of which
we are investigating its authenticity.” The company initiated a
“complete sanitization” and is replacing equipment and utensils
at the fast-food restaurant after the video was shared with them
several days ago,
Stula said in the statement. The company is contacting a licensed
pest control operator to examine the restaurant for rodents. The
company is also consulting with its attorneys about potential legal
action against the former employees. (https://goo.gl/JUPMnb)
