Punishing our kids!

Originally posted by TigranJamharian kids need a beating now and then to understand whats good for them. i have realized that my morals have deteriorated and overall i have slowly become to want more and more ever since i came to this damn liberalized country. When i have kids they are going to get beatings for
1) speaking any other language other than Armenian in the house unless the person they are speaking to doesnt speak Armenian
2) stealing anything- i dont think this will happen but if it does they will get beaten
3) disrespecting any elders--- severe beating for this one
4) ever fighting with their siblings-- definately, they need to understand that they have noone closer than family
5) any drug use of any kind--- i cant even begin to describe what they will get for this
6) talking back, rolling eyes...----
7) Ever saying anything against Armenia or not devoting themselves to their country--- dont htink this will happen but they will get the xxxx beaten out of them
8) for any girls i might have- you will get a severe beating for having sex before marriage, ........ for any boys--------severe beating if they are a virgin by age of 18... just joking .. only joking about the boys
9)Marrying a non Armenian----------ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
10) disrespecting any family members or not being obedient--- beating


anyway i will add more to the list. i approve of beatings

As for you.... I hope you were trying to be funny with the excessiveness since I'm sure the people of Armenia aren't going to want such a TYRANT for a leader.

Their defense consisted of a detailed and graphic explanation of his violent disciplinarianism. He basically beat them for everything, much like you plan to do to your own children. I hope to God you don't plan on raising them in New York City; you won't last two years.

"I hope to God..."

Some would say that's just a figure of speech, I would say it's a Freudian slip.

Originally posted by ckBejug Mousy the issue is not that a drug that is legal is GOOD and one that is illegal is BAD. Plenty of people out there abuse prescription medication, over the counter medication, alcohol, legal things, whatever they can get their hands on. Good= using a drug to alleviate pain (and I don't mean getting high or drunk to forget you're sad or somesuch xxxx) Bad= using a drug for 'recreational' purposes. Maybe I need to talk to someone who has done drugs before, you've smoked weed, what was your reason behind it? I have never ever felt the pull to do something like that. God knows in college there were plenty PLENTY of people around me doing it, it would have been easier than anything to find any drug I could possibly think of, I just never found it enticing. My parents never sat me down and said 'Christine, drugs are bad blah blah blah.' so maybe I don't get how people can see how bad these things are for you and still keep doing it. Someone try to explain this to me.

As for the discipline thing, my mom was quite the disciplinarian in my family and I am all the better for it. All this psychology stuff makes sense but you have to realize that at a certain point in their lives children need to be taught the difference between right asnd wrong. No matter how intelligent some kids might be, there is an age at which REASONING is not something they grasp. Yes and No is pretty much the extent of it and if you do something that you're not supposed to then you get punished/disciplined for it. My mom was an advocate of throwing that dang pabooj around when I was being bad. I think mom slippers have some kind of kid sensors because those things somehow always got me in the ass. If I was running up the stairs or down it, she had some damn good aim. I'd love to be there when you try to sit your breath-holding bloody-murder screaming tantrum-throwing kid down and try to reason with him like he has the brain capacity and understanding of an adult. Hell nowadays you'd be lucky to find most adults with that kind of brain capacity and understanding, and just so you know, not everyone comes out as mature as our little baron happens to be at 17. Whernever I see all these 12 year old running around with more make-up than I've ever had on in my entire life and hanging out and messing around in public with guys old enough for it to be illegal probably I can't help but wonder where the hell the parents went wrong.....

I'm not a believer that you need physical punishment to instill in your kids a sense of 'right and wrong'. For one thing I am a believer in the fact that some kids have more of a sense of 'right and wrong' than others, and in that I go with the genetic argument. Call me crazy but kids for the most part are a product of their mothers. I like to believe that, otherwise ones "Jewishness" wouldn't be based on the mother. My mom always said to me, like an Armenian mom would, "Before you marry anyone look at their mothers". In any event, you go ahead and beat your kids, I'll even donate a broom to you as an effort to contribute to your disciplinary actions. I, on the other hand, will discipline them without physical violence.

I didn't say I was going to beat my kids. Keep your stupid broom. Disciplining your kids goes beyond hitting them to show then what's wrong. I should hope that they will understand when I teach them right from wrong, I'm just saying that sometimes kids don't so in order to keep the little kid, for example, from burning his fingers off on the stove you smack him on the butt maybe and he doesn't do it again. Jesus, you Do exaggerate, who said anything about giving kids a beating? Anyway good luck to you and your disciplined little wifey, whoever she may be.

I've learned that as much as you tell your kids or neaces and nephews that something is wrong or hit them even beat them they are still going to do what they want to do. Goes in one ear and out the other (my mom usto say that to me all them time). You can advise a child and be a friend, sister or brother to them tell them its wrong and why you believe it to be wrong, however you cannot tell them DON'T do this or else they will go do it because thats how kids are they are stubborn and hard headed, it is a very rare child that you may be able to say don't to and they won't. I have a nephew and i have cousines who have kids that Im close to from the ages of 10 months to 19 years. As much as i have tried telling them DON'T and STOP and BE this way or DO it that way, they will always choose the oppistite of what i say. So now I have gone to the point of saying ok if you want to do drugs or other things at least let me be there let me help and show you the right way, this way if i tell them only doing it once is enough just to get the expierence of taking a drug, or doing something differently or acting a certain way (so on and so forth) they will listen, why tell them DON'T if they are going to do it anyway, you would rather be there to help them in their choices. We were all children once we know how it is to be stubborn and do it our way. My parents never controlled me or punished me or even told me how to be or act, my dad has beat the living xxxx out of me for stupid stupid reasons but he is my dad and i love him regardless. True, i think if they had been a little less leanient and more abrasive i would have been a little less of a trouble maker and "xxxxxy" but i like who i am and i think i am who i am becaue of the way i was raised and i will raise my children to think for themselves to come to me with anything they want and i will help them with their choices i wont tell them what to choose.

You live your OWN life and you live it once, you have plenty of time to be dead!
