kids are always making their parents look silly, and it mainly has to do with the fact that parents don't beat their kids. if i was being a distraction at the meeting when i was young, i knew i was going to get a beating. i know kids whose moms would bring wooden spoons to the meetings with them in case their kids acted up. but parents just let their kids rule there lives now a days, and the kids always end up being totally screwed up.
sorry if i am getting off topic, but while we are on the subject of kids, one thing that REALLY annoys me is when parents bring there kids with them to a party or gathering or whatever, and the kids don't even say hello to the host. and then they will sometime let their kids bring their gameboys with them, and they will sit in the corner and play it the whole time. or they will run around the house and destroy things, and the parents just don't do anything to stop them. if i ever did this when i was little, again i would catch a beating.
Yeah well that is where you are wrong. I beat my kids. Haha... But I see what you are saying. A lot of that has to do with DYFS. If you spank your kids and even leave a red mark, they come after you. It's a joke.
Just to throw in a legal fact: Having worked on custody cases in NJ, NY & PA, an agency may investigate a claim of abuse, but 4 out of 5 that I've been involved with come back unfounded, because the parent simply was disciplining. And once they close their investigation, it's closed and they shouldn't give a parent more trouble. So smack the kids!
I have not been on ezabel for a while. So it is time to add some comments.
I am a HUGE activist of BEATING your kid.
I can NOT explain how many times a child has run in the kingdom hall, gave lip to an older person, smacked another kid and the most that happens to the child is a stern talking to.
GIVE ME A FREAKING BREAK.
My husband feels the same way. When we have kids whenever that will be who knows, I'm sure we will be the Nazi parents of the hall because I REFUSE to let my child run my life, they already will be taking up 99% sent of my time & I don’t need them to RUN it.
I was a well behaved kid man. it got to the point that if I acted up during the meeting I got the eye and GOODNESS KNOWS that was worse then just smacking me because I knew I was getting it when I got home., & I totally deserved it. If it wasn't for my parents taking charge I would not have realized how important the meetings are and that they are not playgrounds, same as being a guest in someone’s house.
I also respect my parents for being firm & reasonable of course. & anyone who knows my parents knows they were chill, cool, & easy going parents, but they also laid the law down when we needed it.
Kids do not have respect. IT KILLS ME.
WHAT REALLY Kills me
is when we have families over and the child is running around my house, LITERALLY running. I NEVER did that! &&&& The parent does not stop them. WHY??
The thing too is Jaws is NOT about kids. So if the child is obnoxious Jaws, oh man he does NOT like it. I have to put him away so he doesn't bite the child.
So BEAT YOUR KIDS WHEN THEY ACT UP. LOL Cause If you don’t I just might.-haha
Now the whole “controversy” of having or not having kids (& controversy is specifically in quotes because I don’t believe it is a controversy it’s a joke.) Who is it of anyone to say yay or nay of having or not having them, adopting or not adopting? It’s ridiculous. If you want them have them, if not don’t. It is not up to anyone but you and your mate. & there should be no pressure because why should you care what people think about such a huge decision. It changes YOUR life not theirs. SO how can there be any debate when it only involves yourself & your mate. That’s what I’m saying. Ha ha
At one point I was all about babies. At the moment I am not because I like my time. Buying a house and having a pup took up a lot of my time & at the moment I am not ready to dedicate my life to a child. Although I love my house and my pup it still takes up more then enough of my time. & I feel having a child although I would LOVE it, it is just not for me right now. A child can wait a few years. I want to travel. It is hard enough trying to find a person who is capable of handling my dog for weeks at a time. The time will come when babies are in our future.
& I am totally naming my kids cool names. I hate boring names. Ha ha- my name is so boring and I wish to goodness gracious my parents gave me an exciting name.
(beeep- answering machine finish noise)
I agree, yo
Wow! Brilliant comment!!
some people shouldn't be allowed to have children...i am dead serious too.
You being one of them. :oP
I agree with you Alex... especially if the parent continues to act like a child after they have kids, even more so a reason why they shouldnt be allowed to have children...
somebody sure loves the spankings
