    It's really a shame the way things have changed. I'm not a parent, but I am close with two of my sisters, who both are. One married to a man in the Navy, and they have a daughter who is now 15. She's one of the smartest, most disciplined people that I've met. The other one married a husband who is away for work most of the time, and had two sons. One is 14, and the other 9. She doesn't use any discipline at all on them. They have free reign over whatever they want. The last time they came here, one of them almost drowned to death, because he wouldn't listen to her mother. My father had to save him- he had to go to the hospital for a concussion. Keep in mind that my father can't swim. The mother wasn't paying any attention at all. The kids were horsing around on rocks, and one fell face-first into the water. Both of them went tearing about the farm the whole trip- we still have tools missing from them. It got so bad that I actually slept a night in my office. That night was well worth it. Those two will be in a State Prison within 10 years, just wait.

    It's sad that parents can't use corporal punishment like they used to. In Wyoming, nobody would do anything about it, but I know that we're our little "Mayberry" in the world. Everyone knows everyone, and life is a lot different....

    The Navy family lived in Maryland at the time- I doubt the wife would have used corporal punishment much, but I don't think that the need would ever arise. Children want to know the boundaries- set them clearly, and they won't be pushed. I can count the number of spankings that I had on my fingers and toes (Probably wouldn't need many toes). It sets a clear image in your head, and you won't try it again.

    My problem is with the brats in the grocery stores that won't quit crying because they can't have candy. The mothers that give them the candy are the worst. You're telling your children that they can have control over you. That's not a good idea! I'd take my chances with the belt before I would let my child walk over me. Of course, with discipline, they'd know what would come if they misbehaved. The spankings wouldn't be needed after a while...

    Stupid people, stupid csr that do not know how do their job, then when you start raising hell and swearing at them, they hang up the phone.

    Case in point, about a year ago the cable company charged me a 100 bones for not returning a modem on a old account. I swore up and down I returned, but they wouldn't budge. So paid it and moved on. Fast forward a year and I found it. So I return it and now they are trying to charge the same 100 saying it was never paid when in fact I did. On top of returning the modem 2 weeks. I was supposed to get a credit. Stupid person wouldn't listen, kept saying I need a receipt to prove I did. Um duh!! I returned it 2 weeks, so um I dont owe you nothing for starters. Two you owe me money, because I paid for it a year ago. She couldn't grasp it. She hung the phone up which caused my blood pressure sky rocketed and start getting dizzy. She had me so pissed I thought I was gonna stroke out or take a heat attack. I cant wait till I get a hold of the supervisor tomorrow, I dotn care if I get arrested or not. I hate being told Im a liar or Im wrong, when Im right.

    I really hate today's stupid generation and Im only 35. I let 2 helpers go because they were costing me money and pulling forest gump maneuvers like this chick. Thats what pisses me off. I just wrecked my trailer, because I got dizzy fighting with this idiot and drove my truck into it. At least it wasnt a human LOL

    People who watch a few youtube videos and come here with gold fever asking very basic questions and won't read the old threads.

    Thieves and dope heads.

    People who admit to or brag about illegal activities on public forums.

    Here'a how bd it is...The school where I teach has adopted a program called PBIS..positive behavior intervention and support. In a nut shell, negative consequences for bad decisions are discouraged, even frowned upon. Instead, praise and give out coupons for instances of good behavior.

    How stupid! If a spanking would make my child be a much better person, I'd go to prison for it. No crime is "honorable", but I could never live with myself knowing that I made a person who has no discipline, motivation, or understanding.

    Back on track: I'm pissed off by people who don't know how to do their jobs, but act like they're the smartest person out there. I am also peeved by engineering that makes equipment repairs harder than they need to be...

    Amish people that own cell phones and use power washers
    Religious zealots
    Changing the origin of the teenage mutant ninja turtles . They are not from outer space .
    Removing bebop and rocksteady from the villains list
    Blowing into nes cartridges
    Partners that prefer to sleep with the tv on
    Bulldog snore at 3 am
    Blow out diapers

    Finding your chainsaw outside after the snow melts
    People that think computer boards are worth $20-$30 a lb because of the gold
    Check engine soon lights
    Not having enough hours in the day
    Getting to the grocery store and leaving the list at home
    Being lied to in general
    People that put iPods cassette tape players and erasers that lookalike cell phones in with their cell phones .
    People that want to sell you their broken electronics for %80 of what they paid retail . Cause it's like brand new except the screen don't work .
    Sports fans that think athletes should be role models
    Part time dads
    heroin addicts , thieves and people who support or profit off them
    The governors wellness mobile
    Not enforcing simple laws like jay walking and city curfews for minors

    I keep checking the engine in my Buick. It's still there! Why do they keep telling me to check it? If someone stole the engine, I think I'd know it!

    On track:

    Windows 8 (And 8.1)
    Hewlett-Packard
    Bad Drivers
    People that assume you're "Anti-American", because you drive a used Audi, BMW, or Toyota
    People who want to beat their political views into your head

    Jaywalking? I wouldn't call a jaywalker a "hardened criminal".

    That's the best I've got.

    I can name one. When I was 6 years old, my principal drug me around by my neck collar damaging my neck. Was in the hospital, neck brace, still have issues. Idiot told my dad I was being unruly and I deserved it. My dad tried to remove me from the school and he refused. So um, mr big shot principal went through the wall literally. But this principal had a history of abuse and after dad did that, everybody starting standing their ground., And told him, if ya touch my kid, I will be the next to throw you through the wall. Dad did roughly 6 months, but it was well worth it. Even the cos at the jail respected him. The local police. They couldnt touch the a** and he remained a principal till he retired. I think he got moved from elementary to high school though. So yes some crimes are honourable especially if your protecting your family. I still have issues with my neck after thirty years....and sometimes the nightmares still haunt me. This little bastard even blasted kids heads into the wall, hit them with the poker thing....hit them with erasers. I been waiting for him to cross my path, but never saw him again. I will say his name was Mr Farrell and I hope he dies a malignant death for all the child abuse and pain he caused.
