i found the link "10 Dumbest Laws in America" also interesting.
In all honesty this is what happens when you get parents trying to educate their children by asking them and making empty threats. "Do you want to go to the corner I'm going to count to 3....1....2...3 oh I'll count to 3 once more and you better be in the corner" and the kid looks at the parent like they're a complete moron and goes on with what they were doing. You have no idea how many moronic parents I've seen come into my store. These kids are the future kids that must always disrupt the teacher or curse them out, or the class hoe. Parent's seriously need to take off their and beat some sense into these kids.
I don't mean beat within an inch of death but to show them who's boss. To make them respect their elder's in a sense. There's so much crap I could get into about parents now a days being moron even though I am 20 myself and would never (if this offends anyone sorry) screw up my life with a kid.
Not gonna lie, half the posters here are morons.
Beating the shit out of someone doesn't demand respect. My dad did that to us when we were young, and yeah, we feared him, and didn't do shit again, but only because we were smart enough to associate bad shit with being whipped. I don't respect my father, period. That's not to say its always inappropriate- 'spanking' a kid and such I agree with. Going out back and getting a whip (or a hangar? what the fuck?) to 'beat the living shit out of' someone is not a solution, in my opinion. You're instilling fear, not respect.
inb4 its the same thing, because its not. A lot of it boils down to common sense- I didn't respect some little shits causing issues my senior year in high school, but I knew if I beat their asses, I would have lost my $10,000 scholarship.. I was smarter than that.
You have to teach your kids what is right and wrong, but making them simply fear you doesn't solve that, it means they don't do that shit around you. If they don't actually respect you, ain't shit being learned. And, as stated, I don't respect my father simply due to the fact that his only solution to everything was pretty extreme domestic violence - fuck that.
And I did turn out fairly well, graduated high school, went to college, working a steady job and making good money.
you know, i was joking. you guys are fuckin freaks.
thats the result of you getting a whippin, be grateful. damnAnd I did turn out fairly well, graduated high school, went to college, working a steady job and making good money.
zzz firas beat me to it
My dad made me eat my report card because and I quote "With these kinds of grades all your going to do is eat shit for the rest of your life...so start now and eat this damn report card"
Boo fucking hoo, my dad terrorized me, abused my mom for years, told me "You're a failure, you're never going to amount to anything, just like me" before headbutting me a couple of times the last time I saw him before he killed himself in a really nice car (Black 1980 Camaro with a completely handbuilt 383, nitrous hookups, drag ready rear end, all that good shit, probably a 10 second ride with good tires...), which he could have given to his only son before shooting himself, but that would have been kinda cool of him, and he was an epic asshole.
You get up, you dust yourself off, and you move the fuck on.
Whatever horrible shit you imagine you went through, somewhere in the world there is a little kid right now being RAPED by a filthy old man, and as you read that, I'm sure several DIED OF HUNGER.
Goddamn pussy ass kids, oh no, I got a spanking, oh no, I had to eat a bar of soap. You got to live in america, and waste enough time playing an MMORPG to find these boards and post on them.
Get the fuck over it.
homeschooling here i come
First of all sucks to be you, I would say sorry or some sort of comforting thing but I don't want to be a hypocrite.
Secondly I never intended that post to be take as a pity or QQ post. It was a response to Firas' post. I turned out to be a good person overall. In all honesty I thought it was creative even at the time not to mention it worked...I didn't want to eat my report card again so I made sure to get good grades.
I just decided to give an example of what sort of punishment I got when I was a child and you know what I think it was normal, getting hit with a coat hanger, a sandal, belt, eating my report card...
Lastly you're pretty much doing the same thing I was supposedly "oh my dad shot himself blah blah blah" guess what exactly what you said "Boo fucking hoo" there's people worse off then you so yeah...
My point was that despite the shit I went through as a kid, you don't hear me bitch about it, or use it as anything but an example that your life is not that bad.
My life wasn't that bad, the little girl that just died of Malaria somewhere, her life was pretty bad.
Damn, you dad and my dad should have gone bowling.
Seriously though, get this shit: I had just got finished taking my 2 year old son back to my grandma's house from the playground because it was starting to get dark. After dinner he said he wanted to go out to the playground again. Of course I said maybe next weekend (his mother has him during the week) because it's too dark and he started shouting "I want to go to the playground!" I drop down to one knee and looked at him and firmly said no. He gets mad and spits in my face so I get up and spank him on his butt twice and he starts screaming bloody murder and runs to my mother and grandma who both start yelling at me like I did something wrong.
Keep in mind that between the 2 of them, I've gotten quite a few old school pay per view worthy asswhoopins' using any random object within arms reach. (from phone wires to hot wheels tracks) He's hugging on them screaming without a single tear while they're back seat parenting yelling about being too hard on him while he's smiling out the side of his mouth. What's the fucking world coming too?
