Todays parents are sometimes too busy to discipline. They leave their kids in front of the idiot box to learn how to behave. I've never seen such a sheep-ish mentality as I see in the children of today. Like Chris Rock said its not nice to see someone taking responsibility of their kids, thats your JOB! Have you seen the way kids on TV act? Have you seen the way (sorry if I offend anyone) but rich parents who try too hard to be PC and befriend their children instead of being an authority figure.
I don't and I refuse to understand why its ok for your 8 year old to run up and down the aisle of the grocery store, knock things off the shelf and just annoy the rest of the customers. I don't think spanking is wrong either, I misbehaved a FEW times and well when that hand hit my ass I figured it out and it NEVER happened again. I do agree that every child is a reflection of their parents and the parenting skills of said parents. If at 16 your kid is running amok, true you may not have total control but I know you can ground them, MONITOR their every move, and MAKE SURE they're where they need to be at all times. I know when I was probably 6 or 7 I threw a tantrum in the mall and got my ass spanked hardcore. One end of the mall to the other and out to the boonies to the car. It didnt end there, when I got home I was sent to my room..out came the TV, games, and my 3 toy chests(yes I had 3 3'x10' toy chests my dad made) and I was pretty much forced to sit there for 3 days. I could read, but you know.. I cant cause much chaos reading. I soon figured out it was a bad idea to throw a tantrum.
more soon Im tired
