To the parents of Hannah...

[illusionofjoy]

I remember my youth. At four years old I wasn't allowed to run around in the supermarket and I certainly never made it more than ten feet from the vicinity of my parents. Tonight, as joi_division and I were in the supermarket checkout lane, little Hannah was running back and forth down the aisles, with nary a care in the world. Immobile and spineless stood her dimwitted parents in the aisle next to us, unstirred to action, save their plaintive cries of, "no, Hannah, come back Hannah, put that down Hannah." At one point, so frustrated by the ineptitude of modern parenting, I actually yelled out, "Grab your child and discipline it!" Hannah's parents apparently didn't hear me.

I see an Amber Alert in the not-so-distant future for little Hannah. With parents as observant and mindful as hers, she's bound to get abducted sooner or later. Pathetic.

Not in the south. People snatch their kids up and spank them in the middle of the store down here. Their little butt listens too.

I don't understand... why have a child if you cannot feed it? Why have a child if you are too incompetent to raise it? Why have a child if you are too spineless to discipline it? I tell ya, people are morons. I don't think children are ever mistakes; I think their unready parents are.

Ah, the screeching of small children...like a jigsaw to my temples. Whenever I see something like that, I think, "it's never too late to have an abortion..."

in defense of the inept and ineffectual parents...these days the law says that ANY physical discipline can be called abuse...
we were raised in the time of spankings, and belt to ass kinda discipline...

personally
I'd do jail time for "child abuse" if it was the difference between raising a fucking demon with no respect for anything that acted like those kids on Maury Povich and raising a child who knew their fucking place...

my parents didn't "Beat" me. physical discipline is not beating...
I was spanked when I fucked up.
never cuz they were bored.
and even then, I had to fuck up pretty bad to incur a physical discipline.
these days, every crybaby liberal in the country'd be dialing child protective services on their cell phone if they heard a parent say, "Get back her or your getting a spanking when we get home!"

personally, I'd applaud the parent who said that, and meant it.

today's children are so horribly behaved that I must once again, boldly, and firmly state my opinion that, children belong ON the dinner table, not AT it.

soy sauce tastes like children...

I agree...when I was little, my parents would have whipped my ass if I did even half the things children get away with now.

Unfortunatly, you have these idiots who make laws that involve valid spankings in being "child abuse." What a bunch of morons. And then they wonder why more and more kids are out committing robberies and murders.
