Bad behavour at the supermarket

[Castro]

Timmy was with his mummy as she did the weekly shopping at the Supermarket, how he hated it, boring, he was prepered to let his mummy know how much he hated going shopping, as soon as they had entered the Supermarket the little 8 year old started performing like a little 3 year old...his mummy was getting fustrated as her little Son carried on, swearing at his mum, even hitting her when he couldn't get his own way, when she went to grab him after hitting her, he scooted off, running into a big man who had been opbserving the little boy and his antics...Timmy's mother had seen her Son running into the man and apologised...the man Mike Bishop smiled and answered the stressed mother...

Hey it's ok, looks as though you have your hands full, the names Mike anyway, if you like I would like to help...

Maria looked the tall man he Son had ran into and queried as too what he had meant, how he could help, being a single mother by herself with Timmy's father never being in his life, or any other man for that matter, she had struggled with her little Son, as he got older, his behavour had got worse, hitting, biting and tantrums when he couldn't get his own way..she was desperate, how could this stranger help her with her Son she thought to herself....

Looking at Mike who sounded really nice, Maria asked...How can you help me Mike as she felt Timmy kick her leg...saying in a very loud voice...bloody hurry up, I don't want to do any more dumb shopping..fuc...g idiot...

Mike knelt down to the small boy and in a firm voice, spoke to the small boy, which got his attention....You should not kick your mummy like that Timmy or use that sort of language, maybe you would like to spend some time with me eh little one...looking at Maria...Well Maria, If you would like my help with little Timmy, if you like we could arrange to meet some time and talk about his behaviour and what to about it...here kis my phone number, if you are interested in help for your Son, please, have a talk with your husband and give me a ring..

Maria answered quickly as the man handed over his number...I don't have a husband, just myself and my Son

Mike left the lady and the small boy, wandering and hoping she would ring...as the boy needs a firm hand...

Eventually the shopping was done, to the relief ofTimmy's mum, who by the time she got home, she was exhausted, sitting down with a coffee, she thought about the guy she had met in the Supermarket, in the background she could hear her naughty little Son yelling and throiwing a massive tantrum in his bedroom where he had been sent when they got home...he thoughts were....do I ring this Mike guy? can he really help with Timmy's behavour? though he was 8 years old, not a big kid, actually he was very small for his age, not that it made any diffirence to his behavour...maria was at her wits end in handling her young Son, she knew she was too soft on him, probably allowing him his own way too much...after much thought and several daysl later while Timmy was at School, Maria rang the number given to her by the mystery stranger she had met at the supermarket, the phone rang several times, then a voice answered...
Hi Mike here..
Maria paused a bit before answering, as she was apprehensive and a little nervous...Oh.Hi, my name is Maria, I met you at the supermarket, I was with my Son, he was playing up and you had offered to help....
Mike smiled as the caller said her name, answering ..Yes of course Maria, I do remember you, Ime pleased you rang...if you like, we could meet somewher for a coffee and a chat, and you could tell me a little more about your Son, and we can go from there, ok, that fine with you..In answer to Mike...Um, well, yes ok, what about Antonio's coffee shop, it's just around the corner from the supermarket where we met, do you know of it?..I could meet you there for lunch around 12noon, if that's ok...
Yes of course, Antonio's, I know the place, see you there at 12 then Maria, hanging up the phone, he went over and made himself a coffee, wandering how Maria would take his approach to dealing with her little Son's behavour...even more so a complete stranger punishing and spanking her Son...this will be part of the agreement that he will make with her.

Once Maria had got off the phone with Mike, she thought to herself, if Mike was able to help with the way Timmy behaves, especially the way he talks, the bad language, she would be so gratefull...she thought of her own dad and how he brought her up, he was firm with her and would spank her, Maria cringed as she remembered how much it hurt, she ahd never spanked Timmy, though she did believe in it, why, she could't really answer it...maybe she was to lazy, or scared she may hurt him to much as he was a very small tiny baby being a premature birth, she was very protective of him...so had never really spanked, or smacked him at all, not that she could anyway...sometimes she hoped the right man would come into her life and be a good partner for her as well as Timmy, that's probably what he needs, a firm hand...

Part 2

Mike arrived at Antonio's a little early as he contemplated how he should put his thoughts into action...he was aware that what he would be offering Maria was not some mumb jumbo in dealing with bad behavour from naughty children...it was, and still is to many a preffered method of discipline..the contract he had drawn up was an agrrement between the mother and himself, that she would allow her Son to punished for all naughty behavour...he would be spending his first weekend with MIke where he will be taught to behave...

With a few minutes to spaare his thoughts were interrupted by the appearnce of the boys Mother, Maria, offering her a seat, Mike carefully went over the offer of assistance with her Son, the contract and what it entails...the type of punishements that would be used on her Son, Timothy...once all bases were covered, she at first was reluctant to agree to the contract, eventually agreeing as she could see no other way in controlling Timmys anger and behavour issues...It was agreed that Mike would arrive to pick Timmy up for his weekend away, he would be told that Mike would be helping him with his behavour...
