Ignorant bliss is an oxymoron; but so is miserable truth.
I hate stupid kids. |
|
if you can read this then you are about to be punched
Some kids just won't learn unless something actually happens to them. |
|
Don't blame the kids, blame the 80's parents who don't want to be like their own parents. I think this kinda behavior will fade in and out, like a sine wave. |
|
Can you see me now?
Of course, the day that kids behaved was the day that EFFECTIVE punishment was not frowned upon. My younger siblings love their mom and dad, and would never dare to speak like that. |

(@ hellohihello): Sorry, that was an unfair generalization. Of course they have the same objective, but is their different method a proper path to that objective? |

Yeah, I'm really talking about parenting. Not necessarily blaming the kids. The kids are the product of bad parenting. |

Ever been in a restaurant and the little bastard two tables over is screaming his fucking head off, yet the parents sit idly by and do NOTHING about it? |

Far too often... |

I'm only young myself, but I've noticed this as well. Kids are more spoiled now, they get away with anything, and parents don't do shit. I see all the younger kids in my neighbourhood running around, breaking shit, doing stupid things, fighting with adults, even picking fights with older kids, and nobody ever does anything to discipline them. Occasionally a parent will come about, and say "Hey, that's it, you're grounded!". Two hours later, the kids back out on the street after they threw a little hissy fit and the parents either didn't want to put up with them anymore, or didn't have the balls to see through their punishment. |

I swear, hitting kids need to start back up. I am a 16 yr old male and I believe half the kids at my school should get the shit beaten out of them for being disrespectful to adults and doing stupid things. |

Parents nowdays suck. Not all, but many. Too lenient IMO. |

It's the internet that's to blame. |

I don't think effective parenting lies in punishments. The reason a lot of children get to be so wild in the first place is because of neglect. You can also reward children for doing "the right thing" and get desired responses out of them over time. I never had to be punished by my parents, and I hold them in the highest respect. They were always there, so I had no reason to feel as if I got too little attention or the feeling that no one gave a damn about me. |

Dude, going around barefoot really isn't that big a deal. I do it quite often. I'd have protested at the administration butting in too. |

When i visit her dark realm,
Does it simply overwhelm.
I agree. My daughter is 9 years old, is a moderately respectful kid who is on the honor roll at school (and I'm not bragging. It's just relevant), but I haven't spanked her since I don't know when. And even then, it was young enough to where it was just a pop or two. She'd never received one of the full-blown ass-whoopings that I used to get. It's really just not necessary. |

The way parents act themselves, is a huge part to play in it. Of course discipline and stuff is important too. But when a child is young, they will see the way the parent acts, and see it as the right thing to do. Unless the parent says something like "see this scar, yea, you don't want this. So you should never..." and whatever. Something along those lines. Especially with something like smoking, or violence. |

I was talking to my nephew the other day (11yrs) and i said to him.. " hey dude what did u get your dad for his birthday?" his response... " sweet f.a! hes my dad i dont have to buy him gifts i didnt ask him to have me" |
|
So, what should we expect of the next generation (my generation ) of parents? |
|
Can you see me now?
Heh. First thing that came to mine. At the movie theatre the other day, there was a lady with a a few kids ahead of me, and a few kids behind me with parents. Both of them talked the whole time. And what really got to me was the fact that their parents didn't tell them to shutup. They didn't say anything. Maybe a few ssh's in the beginning, but after a bit they were on free reign. I had to personally tell both of them to shutup (just loud sssh's), not that it mattered. Their parents actually had the nerve to look at me like I was doing something wrong. |

Okay, embrace then. And, depending on how the kid feels, it could be shorter or longer. |
