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.

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.

I did this to the walls in our home when i was younger. I even wrote my name with nail polish on my father's Mercedes benz 200 back in the 90's they never beat me for it. Only laughed and repainted the house when we grew up. And re-sprayed d car as well.

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

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

Anonymous said...

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
