Umm, coming from someone who's parents tried that method on me -- it doesn't work. "no phone after 9pm" " you mom!" . The kid is 13 years old, what are you going to do, throw him/her out on to the street?
Not to say that was the response I gave to my parents, I actually obeyed them because I respected them. But I know many other kids who have total disrespect for their parents and that's the response they give when their parents try to "punish" them in that way. |
I agree with you on one front. You're right a lot of kids now do not respect their parents which is really sad. Therefore some do give the response " your mom" ?:stongue: But I think that respect has to be learned. If your parents are beating the outta you, how are you suppose to respect them? There's a little give and take with repect amongst parents and their children. But I do totally see what you're saying too. Just another aspect on things. ;) |

The curfew is pure bull. It's descrimination. If kids are loitering, then kick them out. If seniors are loitering, kick them out! Why would I as a business owner want to force potential teen customers to stay away from my store unless they had a guardian? Not ALL kids just loiter after 6.
Also, why not address the reason these kids are there in the first place? Could it be because there is absolutely nothing else to do? Why not set up all ages clubs or lower the drinking age? I dont see too many 19 year olds hanging out at malls in Canada like I do when I go to the US.
Deal with the troublemakers and keep the rest as paying customers. 95% of the kids that come into my store are great repeat customers that cause absolutely no trouble and many come in right up until close. If i were to have this rule i'd lose a few hundred dollars a day. |

I don't think that giving kids a beating these days will help anything. If anything I think that a beating would make a kid even worse. I can understand spankings, but other that, I just think hitting your kid is totally intolerable. I just think discipline like curfews, setting rules like no phone after 9 o'clock as well as internet, those kind of things are what kids need now-a-days. I have a daughter (she's only 16 months) of my own, and the last sort of discipline that I would resort to would be beating her. No matter what she did. |
Yeeaaaah, that's going to work.
:rolleyes:
Let's hope your attitude changes within the next 2 or 3 years.

| Beatings are no good... spankings are ok. I was spanked as a kid cuz i did stupid , and apperantly after a good spankin i would never do the same again. |

when you're young, asses are meant to be spanked. pain = bad.
when you're old, asses are meant to be spanked. pain = pleasure.
come on people, i wanna see RED !!! |

| The funniest thing is those campaignes I see on the TTC - "Help a kid stay out of trouble, etc - join this/that group, be a mentor"... ha! Funny ... What they really need is just ease up (by quite a lot) on that law of child abuse, spanking your child and what not and bring in the old school parenthood. That'll keep 99% of today's teens in line, and will save us zillions of dollars each year that are spent on these special programs! |

So you hope that I change my attitude towards beating my child??
Right :rolleyes:
You'll understand when you have your own children. |

There's a not-so-fine line between beating and disciplining. If your idea of discipline is cutting off phone privileges.... man.
I'm not trying to tell you how to raise your kid, but I'm also not going to smile and nod to someone who thinks that anything more than a tap on the ass is abusive. Leave that to the social workers. |
