bring back the ability for parents to control their kids without feeling like the cops are gunna take them away

Most of the kids today need a frigging good smack around the head and to learn to respect other ppl.

the courts let the get away with just about everything , and make laws to make it easier for them

i dont know about you guys , but when i was a kid , i was far to scared of what my old man would do to me when he got home , to even think of doing half the stuff kids get away with these days

all this softly softly, talk to them parenting obviously doesnt work, its time the parents had the ability to take control of their own kids again

I find myself largely in agreement with the preceding post.

Hehe, me too j2k4. I used to be scared to come home with less than a 7/10 for schoolwork

I agree though, there's nothing wrong with a smack on the bum when a kid did something wrong. I used to babysit my brothers kids a lot when I still lived in Belgium (6 of them at the same time!&#33

. And if the youngest ones (1.5 and 2.5) did something wrong I just slapped their hands for it. That's the only way the message got through.
There are limits of course, I'd never do what my dad used to do to me

the courts should let parent be parent's

ive been holdin this back for bout 5 months now!

round 5 months ago my son 9 yrs ol for the first 3 months of school
this lil bastard ,bullied another kid and his teacher did'nt call us to tell us!
so it was'nt till we got reports back in the mail till we found out!
then he tried to lie about what he did!...but we knew so we put him on punishment ,and it was close to his birthday so we said if u still fuck up!...no birthday ,what he do mess up again by beatin up the kid cuz he thought he told on him!...so my girl whoops his ass for lying and doing it agian!

he went to school told them ppl we abuse him and they put both my sons in foster care for 4 months ...i was so pissed im now sueing the state the school and many more ...cuz there's more to the story ,but after the second day in foster care he realise his mistake and wanted to come home ..easier said then done!
half the fault lie's on the teacher cuz she would'nt tell us nothing then when we try to take care of it ...we end up in the court system!

that why my daddy said never trust the law your better on your own tryin to handle stuff

It is to your credit you see this in light of your bad experience, Skweeks.

It must have been very hard indeed.

It is a situation similar to that of the Catholic Church; given the recent scandalous behavior of some priests:

Even considering their horrible and sinful behavior, to thereby tar and feather religion is plainly inappropriate.

In the same way, the fact of severe discord or even abuse of children by parents does not dictate a default to another guiding authority.

Family is still the most unifying force in any society; anything that threatens it, threatens us all.

Well...my sis decided it was completely wrong to give her kids a smack every now and then and they both are real brats

My other brothers kids do get a smack on the bum when they do something wrong and they're angels most of the time.

I think I know how I'd raise my kids
