Read a interesting article this morning. And yep, set me off big time. The reason is the parent in the article. This guy has a kid, but doesn't want to take responsibility for him. Here's a quote:

Until receiving a recent rash of tickets, Shifflett said he'd never heard of ticket-writing in schools. And he doesn't like bearing the punishment for his child's misbehavior.

"To me, it's a lot of money. I'm going to end up paying for it," Shifflett said. "My 15-year-old son doesn't work. They're basically punishing the parent."

Well no fuckin shit buddy! Who the hell should be punished??? I think parents should bear more and more of the punishment for their kids. It would hopefully eliminate these fuckers that refuse to take any responsibility for their kids doing shit they shouldn't be.

Today with all the interference from Social Workers, parents think their kids are little angels that just need the right combination of drugs to be a straight-A student. Bullshit.

What little Bobby needs is a PARENT willing to deal out a good old fashioned punishment! I used to dread getting in trouble because I knew I was screwed when my nanny or mom found out. My nanny would usually sit me in a corner or make me clean something that wasn't all that pleasant. Doesn't sound that bad now, but as a kid it was a major detterent.

My mom, god bless her was more physical. I was real rebellious and prone to talking back. A normal spanking wouldn't do shit, because I was immune to the pain. But a nice smack in the mouth shut me right the fuck up! My mom didn't believe in all this shit nowadays about ADD and other bullshit made up to make kids "special."

I believe my mom did a good job raising me, and the punishments were right on the money for the shit I did. I doubt I'll be talking to a psychologist and have a "revelation" that I was a battered child and sue my mom for all kinds of money. My mom raised me to be strong and proud and willing to take responsibility for my actions. I wouldn't change that for the world.

I vote for getting social workers and drugs off of todays kids and go back to the parenting of yester-year. A more hands-on approach is needed. Parents and kids today are heading down that nice road called denial. None of these fuckers are willing to say "hey you know what, I fucked up and should be punished." They'd rather say "well, my little Bobby has trouble paying attention in school, isn't there some new miracle drug to make him into a child I don't have to take responsibility for?"

Oh yeah, here's the article that set me off: Shouldn't be a Parent!
