I would say I have great self control, but not so much on anyone else.

This is embarrasing, but I don't get it? LOL.  Something like a pull toy?

Sometimes I think my kids have more control over me...

which is not good all the time but as soon as I realise that, I just pull the reigns a bit tigher!

Sunnybeach7, There is a little trick to being in control.  It is exemplified in this quote by D.D.E.,  Pull the string, and it will follow wherever you wish. Push it, and it will go nowhere at all.

I have been in that same situation many times with my family.

Yes, sometimes those things dealing with protection of others can be so restricting.  It's a shame it has to be that way.

I wish I had more control over what happens in the group home I work in..
Everything is preplanned and controlled by protocol which we have no say over...I know our residents have to be protected, but a bunch of robots could do what we, the staff, are doing....in a nutshell, we have no say (although management would claim otherwise).

Sunny, I think you should sign him up for a Blogit account.
He could be called SunnyPebble - I'm sure he'd talk a lot more sense than most of us.

I think there are a lot of people who have tried to control my life. Especially in relation to others in my life...I am not a controlable person though! They lose!

Yes, I'd think they would be pretty much the same.

Dave
Haha, yeah, definitely us!  But being that he's only 4...this could develope into a severe addiction, don't ya think?

Sunny, you'll have to watch him. You don't want him to be constantly glued

to the computer screen, unable to leave it alone...

Oh, that's us isn't it.

Reading your post
makes me realize that kids are the same the world over. Control is very difficult to define

I guess you are spontaneous in certain ways that I know of.

afzal
Really?  So you're more of a spontaneous person?

Control is always used to regulate your life and to set a routine .
I think routine makes things more boring . Thanks.
