Omg omg omg!! This is so funny. Alright. This is to show some of you wussy ass parents that a 15 year old knows more about how to raise you child better than you! O.o...yes I have written a non published book about this. I have had experience.

Okay just...kidding...I think.

This can go anywhere from slapping your chlid, methods of discipline, should you spoil your child, how you should in general raise it.

Someone please start, so I can hear your opinion.

I can't really comment on this... I have terribly crappy parents, so my thinking of all parents is negative. =.

Hmm...

My parents are extremely strict, but I wouldn't consider them "crappy" like Richie...they're just loving in a different way, I guess.

My parents get the job done. I have my misgivings with them, but they did try, and I can't fault them for that.


Anyway, I personally support corporal punishment (physical punishment) in certain situations. If your 3-year-old son goes to stick a fork in an electrical socket, what do you think will get through to him? A slap on the head, or a lengthy discussion about electricity's inheirit danger? Physical punishment is far from pleasant and certainly not the end-all solution, but I feel that it is sometimes called for, though these situations should decrease with age.

I don't have a positive relationship with my mother, so I can't really remark on that part without being slightly biased. However, I do believe that parents do most of their actions with the child in mind. They don't let their kids go out to friends houses without them knowing, ect, because they want them to be safe.

I'm against spoiling. Yeah.

In terms of hitting your children, it really depends on the degree of it. My dad used to hit me on my hands when I was in trouble, and that really did get the message across. My mom, however, hits my arms and a bit harsher, so I just do it again to spite her. Not much of a differance physically, but I found it does change how the message comes across.

My brother actually stuck a pair of keys in the electrical socket when he was younger ._.

My parents figured the electricity taught him the lesson. =/

My parents have been very lenient and forgiving with me. All the chores I do are entirely voluntary, seeing as how I'm never asked to do anything. :wub: You see, they divorced when I was very young. Like 3-years old young. I guess they figure they owe it to me to give me a lot of space. I think I turned out pretty well, so treating my son/daughter like my parents treated me couldn't be too bad, right?

My relationship with my father is not that great and I never knew my mother.....

Anyways, I think that when the child gets older, you should just give him space because what parent wants to deal with an angsty teenager going through adolescence.

The Bible says the relationship between parents and children is similar to that of God and man.

I'd kinda work off that. If my kid is anything like I was when I was younger, the kid'll be a horrible monster. My parents raised me through teaching of God's words and, yes, when I was bad they'd spank me. It's really the only way to go. If you sit down your child and say, "Why are you mad? Why won't you share. Let's discuss your feeling." you get nowhere. When I send my kid to school, I'll give all his teachers permission to beat the crap out of the kid if his too out of control.

I don't believe in giving rewards when one is "good". Not only do they keep asking for the stuff, but it teaches gluttony and spoils them.

Oh and if my kid throws a tantrum, I'll just leave the room. evantually he'll learn that nothing good comes from it. if he throws a tantrum in public, I'll beat the crap outa the kid.

Am I mean? I prefer strict, but fair.

I did that when I was 4.



Anyways, Parents sometimes do certain stuff to get a point across.I got hit by my parents once.When I got a 72 average because of missing homework and projects, my mom hit me.It didn't hurt much but, I never missed projects again.

I don't get the whole point of grounding a child and taking away their TV or computer.If someone is doing a lot of work and have nothing to help them relax, they get stressed out.

I have a huge respect for my parents and if I could, I'd be just like my mom and dad.

In my opinion, grounding a child is easy and all, but if the kid is cooperative, having a long discussion about the topic is a lot more affective.

I was spoiled, and I was never hit by my parents. My parents are very kind to me and I'm very greatful that they're my parents.

And the way my parents rased me was perfect for me.

My parents make me work too much. They'll even make messes just so i'll clean it up. I guess it's becuase they think I'm lazy, or becuase they grew up on a farm. They're really cheap, too. I remeber one time where my dad drove five minutes back to a store becuase they forgot to give him a penny in change....And I'm absloutely serious....And for punishment, they'll just yell at me and slap me. They're like travel agents for guilt trips....

I love my parents and they're a lot better than some of my friends...

Yes, I was spank when I was little and I think it got the point across. I knew when I did something bad and I knew what was coming. Soon I just grew out of misbehaving. But my parents are very supportive, with my writing, with my grades, with my dreams, though I have to admit I find it unfair that my mom disapproves of me playing video games. Of course it's fine for my brother to play them, but I get that frown and evil stare. Which is odd to because video games just make my bro lazier, but for me I actually pay attention to the story line and I absorb all the information, so I'm actually picking up skills, not losing them.

I'd like to think I have experience with parenting because I'm a babysitter and have been with the angels and the monsters. I know every trick in the book that children use and why they use them and I have strict punishments that fit the crime. I don't spank the children because they aren't mine, but I take away privileges, ignore the child (they hate that), and a whole aray of other techniques. Some people are good parents and some aren't. My best guess is it has to do with maternal and paternal instincts.
Not Waving but Drowning

Nobody heard him, the dead man,
But still he lay moaning:
I was much further out than you thought
And not waving but drowning.

Poor chap, he always loved larking
And now he's dead
It must have been too cold for him his heart gave way,
They said.

Oh, no no no, it was too cold always
(Still the dead one lay moaning)
I was much too far out all my life
And not waving but drowning.
