My mom tried to sick my older brother on me once, and I whipped his ass good! Then she got my uncle to try and knock some sense into me, and I put him in a head lock and kept jumping up, and down till he gave in, haha!
Funny sh!t! :D
I was such a bad teen, lmao!
lol, i have kicked my dad`s ass before. he really acts like a bitch sometime, you know how crystal addicts can be..
That sucks, dude! My dad was the complete opposite; he once told me if I ever got involed in drugs that he would beat me sensless. Well, I gave him the big FUCK YOU, and started using coke, meth, acid, etc...
I still don't consider weed a drug, and found that the harder sh!t has the ability to get you in the ass. Even so, everytime I snort a line, I think of my brilliant father, and his fucked up attitude!
Don't worry, if you live long enough to get out from under your parents, life will be better. What are you...15, or so? Three years man, and you can give them the big FUCK YOU, and lead your own life! ;)
It really matters on what's been done. Time-outs and loss-of-privlidge are what I plan on using once my son is old enough to understand (can't very well discipline an 8 month old, not that there's any reason to in the first place).
Haha, my parents never hit me, except for my mom. I was maybe 12 years old, and she had me mad something fierce, and I called her an asshole... she smacked me so hard that when I tryed to run away I ran straight into a wall, which irronically hurt a hell of a lot more than the slap.
I learned real quick to not disrespect my parents, and was never hit again.
My parents used to smack me when I was younger, and I really don't think it causes any harm. Having said that I'd hate to end up as one of those moms who are screaming at their kids in the supermarket and smacking them to make them shut up.
I guess a smack can work as a short, sharp shock, and would be more effective if it was reserved for when the kid's done / doing something very naughty, or where they could hurt themselves badly (running into the road / pulling on the cable of the iron...). Also, when the kid's very young then they're not going to properly understand why they shouldn't be doing X, Y or Z.
Once they're old enough to understand why you don't want them to do something I think it'd be better to explain to them, and if they're still naughty then use the time-out thing, because if they understand why they oughtn't be doing something, but still keep doing it it's probably going to be to get attention.
I guess you can't really make a teenager go stand in the corner though, so for that age punishment would have to be stopping them from doing something they want to if they've got into trouble, and rewarding them when they do what you want them to.
I spank. No questions asked. Never tried "time out" or "sit in the corner". And never will
What kind of message are you sending out if you hit your kids?I think they will see enough violence when they get older so there is no need for it to be in the home too.Also parents who hit their kids with anything other then their hand should be ashamed of themselves.I dont have kids but I have met others who have been damaged by their childhood so I would punish my kids by removing their things like tv,comp,etc.
Nothing is more dreaded than outright bordom for kids; that's why taking their sh!t works so well! ;)Quote:

That's exactly what I'll be going for. I've spoken to enough of my friends to realize, a LOT of kids don't like their parents. It is entirely possible, despite my best efforts, my kids won't like me.
So, I do what I know I can. Form them into as functional human beings as possible. That way, even if they hate me with a passion, eventually they will make themselves proud. And eventually after that, they'll realize I tried my hardest to help them do it. Then, we can be friends.
If you need advice just go watch the dog whisperer episode of south park, lol
