(LINK) Here's a video I found rather disturbing. It gets worse around the end. I could say something like: "What does this say about the values of the upcoming generation" but that might be a little bit short-sighted. I know people aren’t perfect, and I know people can snaps when under a lot of stress. And who's to say that every generation just as bad, we just have more opportunity to get recorded at our worse (that may or may not be true, I don't know). But when I saw this video, I felt like a totally different species from the kid. Can't he step back and look at the things he is saying? How can somebody have such a confident tone of voice when the things they are saying are so pointless and meaningless? And who cares about whatever game that is as much as this? When I see something like this, I don't feel like mocking the person, I just feel bummed out. |

Ohhh no. So help me god if my child gives me a fucking attitude like that, he will meet my hand, wooden spoons, the fathers belt, and my high heel shoes. I don't care if he's nine years old, he needs to have some knowledge about respect knocked up into his brain. God, this just adds to my list of why I hate kids. |

Excuse me if I must say that only makes them respect you out of fear. Knowing from experience as other kids; sometimes it's not the best option in the world. It can make matters worse, or it doesn't change things. Sure a spanking, but beating your kids with wooden spoons... eh, no. When I take care of my aunt's kids when she's busy, if they do something bad - I usually just scold them in the right volume and tone, and they end up listening to that. Or a little pat on the hand. You have to set a balanced ground for children. Not be a doormat but not a "I'MMA KICK YO' ASS BOY IF YOU DO THAT AGAIN!" type of person either. End my two cents on the issue. -shrug.- |

Something tells me that kid would just smack you with his X-Box controller. The child is clearly pass lecturing and a firm voice. He either needs 1) to have all his toys and games removed. And then learn how to appreciate how spoiled he is. 2) Sent to military school. A spanking wouldn't hurt either. I don't care what anyone says, a quick whack on the ass never killed or traumatized anyone. But to avoid the whole child abuse vs disciplining debate, I'm going to go with suggestion 1 and 2.

Suggestion one, definitely. I watched the video again, and if I was the mom - I'd disconnect the son-of-a-gun. My mom did the same thing with my brother when he was little.

I'm sorry, but that kid deserve's a fucking slap on the backside. And for his swearing, the good old soap would do the trick. The his leads to his xbox would go, but the xbox itself could stay in his room so that he could stare at it and wish he hadn't messed up. Seriously, I'm all for a little spanking on kids. They learn quickly from it, but they also need the talking to as well. Just hitting your kids hand or ass isn't going to solve their behaviour, it'll just worsen it or make it manifest in a different way. But talk them through it, explain why they were spanked, or why they weren't spanked, and they should learn to understand. But that kid need a solid slap, seriously lol

Kid needs a whipping (figuratively, not literally)! Why the crap is a 9 year old playing a shooting game? What the heck is wrong with the parent for even letting a little kid like that have such a thing? That's where it all went wrong. And this is why the younger generation is evil. because they play shooters like that that give them the idea that shooting and hurting and killing is okay, because 9 year olds are too young (I wanna say stupid really bad, but I'll restrain myself from lowering to his level) to know any better. And this is also to other reason why I hate kids. The arguments where they think they're winning, but they aren't making one logical point at all. |

The types of games he's playing have nothing to do with it, but that's a debate for another time... At any rate, the only way a kid could develop that kind of attitude towards his mom is if she lets him get away with too much without disciplining him. I'm all for Gabe's suggestion take all of his games and toys away, he'll learn (I know I did when I did something wrong, though I can say my vocabulary wasn't that tainted)! |

Understandable. But the type of game he's playing right there shows the fact that his Mother has clearly spoiled him quite badly. And that's one of the worst things to do. Second only to not disciplining him or setting consequences. For a 9 year old to be that bad, she probably didn't do a spectacular job with being a parent. |

Well excuse me if you didn't sense my sarcasm. It's NOT the best option in the world, but you know what? It happens. It happened to me and I'm not violent at all. I ACT violent, but you don't see me disrespecting my family like that. I'm sorry, but there are types of cultures that raise their children differently. Just so happens I was brought up rough that way; I mean, I wasn't ABUSED. But whenever I disrespected my parents I pretty much got a horrid beating. I mean, when my brother was a child, he had to rinse his mouth with soap because he said the word "Fuck." That kid in the video is LUCKY to get away with shit like that. Hmph. I mean...I don't know, parents raise their children differently. Example, one of my cousins RARELY hits her child, and the little girl is the most respectful and kind person on earth! So going back to this topic, I don't know. I believe the mother is not doing shit to discipline her son. I mean, she's letting him curse her out for heavens sake, what kind of parent are you to let a child do that? |

I did sense your sarcasm, Necella, I was just making a point. ![]() And you aren't alone in bring raised rough. I probably got "disciplined" with every object known to mankind (well, besides the most lethal ones. If I was hit with those, well, we know where I would end up). I was just saying it's not always the right thing to do. I would have loved to have my mouth rinsed with soap rather than getting a belt to the face instead. I wasn't trying to start an argument, by the way, or condescending you - if you got that impression. I was just making my opinion. That's what we're here for, correct? Anyway, I agree with most of the people said on here so I'll end my thoughts there. -_- |

Kids = Horrid, disguesting creatures.... Not worth the aggervation in my option. I would take that child over my knee and blister his ass until I got bored. And no, Spock, A spanking will not damage the child. I was raised with a fim willed mother who had a even firmer hand, and I came out great. I know right from wrong and I NEVER spoke to my mother like that or laid a hand on her... I think she would have killed me if I did... That kid needs a good ol fashion ass whoppin. And I know there wil be some 'OMG DONT HIT THAT INNOCENT CHILD! HE IS JUST EXPRESING HIS VIEWS AND EMOTIONS!' People quoting me and telling me that I am so wrong and that I will end up beating my kids to death... No. Abuse is wrong. But the way that that 'mother', if she can be called such, rasied her child is abuse in its own right. A firm hand from the start that there will be no need for extreme or even harsh scoldings later. Just dont ever put up with that and the child wont do it. Plain and simply. Now you are free to quote me and berate me all you want. Have fun. Edited by Azeara, 22 Aug 2008, 06:13 AM.
