I got caught smoking...Mom gave me a beat down.
Exactly. What if they can take you on and win? Then what? Pull out a pistol and threaten them with death? Come on. Violence only leads to more violence.
If you raised your children right, they will listen to you when you talk and respect your opinion.
Any child that would beat their parent over a spanking definately has issues. But I would go as far as to say that the spanking was the cause of the violence, I was spanked as a child, and yet, I am against fighting. Discipline, is not fighting. When a baby is touching something they don't need to touch, what do you say? Don't do that, it's wrong. A baby understands said words? Or do you lightly swat their hand so they know the consequences of touching that object?
Why not use a sharp tone to get your point across? See, once again, a way to avoid senseless violence. Its teaching them that its okay to use violence to get a point across. Which is exactly what your doing, even if its a 'simple spanking'.
yeah, i did hide the roach good, it was in the middle of the trash wrapped in a paper towel, and i did use a deoderizer spray. Does ne one think i should give her my note that i explained in the previous post?
I think the note would help, though saying it face-to-face might be even more effective. It needs to be something you can say truthfully, though, without starting the argument again. If you think it would start an argument, don't do it.
You act as though talking resolves all problems. If that were the case, the world would not have so many damn wars going on. And we'd all live in a peaceful world of euphoria. would disobeying a direct teaching or even a law, not deserve a harsh punishment? Who are we to question her abilities to raise a child? Her child, Her rules, unless the state sees that she is unfit to be a mother, but i'm guessing that they would've taken her son, the original poster, away a long time ago if she had a violent past. he got caught violating at least two rules...1. his mother's rule about pot. 2. the Country's rule about pot. He should be lucky his mother didn't call the cops, and have them create a record for him. Like i said, he'll either think about doing it next time, or he'll find a better way to keep it a secret. But us sitting here questioning and debating about his mother's parenting abilities, is unnecessary, as we are not his guardians. And we don't know the WHOLE truth.
Why doesn't mom just call the cops and let them kick the crap out of him? Problem solved.
How many mothers do you know that will call the cops on their own child? He didn't do anything crazy. He simply tryed what millions of other teenagers tryed, and have tryed for many many years. Its a simple slap on the wrist and maybe a fine. The cops would probably laugh at her and tell her not to waste crucial police time. If every cop that saw me smoking weed or having a pipe in my hand, arresested me, I would have been in prison already. Its simply not worth of the paperwork.
I should've put a smiley at the end. I was kidding. The cops around Boston beat the crap out of drunk people, not stoned people. And the Miami cops beat the crap out of whomever they want. I'm not kidding about that.
haha.. I think all cops get 'beat' crazy sometimes
