But, if it''s not your thermostat keep your hands off of it, whether you are 3 or 93.
And there are only 2 kinds of people, those that have been taught that and those that have to be taught that.

[checkthepast]

Since when are thermostats installed within reach of 3 year olds? More to the story than told here...

But that''s always what happens when you report ''news'' with a forgone conclusion in mind.

Yet another hand-wringing study by another far-left group that finds yet another class of victims. I don''t know which is worse - this kind of victim-speak, or how stories like this dredge the South-haters up out of the muck.

[eddom949]

If it leads to shyness, then it would be a problem. I wouldn''t want to be intimidated because I experimented with the air conditioning thermostat, but if they''re teaching a lesson in adaptability, I''d say RUN!

There is scant research on whether paddling is effective in the classroom. But many studies have shown it doesn''t work at home, said Elizabeth Gershoff, a University of Michigan assistant professor of social work...

That''s ridiculous. If the ''assistant professor of social work'' has any children please keep them away from me. I am a father of seven, ages ranging from 11 months to 34 years, and they are all great kids, partly because of positive reinforcement for positive behavior and negative reinforcement for negative behavior. I am their friend, but I am their FATHER first, and that carries a responsibility which includes proper discipline.

If parents did their job and taught their children how to act there wouldn''t be a need for spanking. Its the parents who need a good spanking too!! Parents act like animals too!! It shouldn''t be a surprise its more minorities than whites, whites generally tend to train their kids how to act-unless they are white trash themselves.

And too, if blacks commit most of the crime why wouldn''t there be more of them in jail-duh!!! It is not from being spanked.

We were spanked at home, and taught how to act, I don''t remember having to be punished in school like that or at all!!! Others were, the snobby white clich of girls, they were mouthy etc...their Mothers were undoubtedly the same.

I wish they would try and paddle me. I would sh*t all over them!

"You have something coming out of your mouth that I wouldn''t hold in my hand" as grandpa use to say.
And if you are big enough to talk that trashy, you are too big to spank.
You need your lights knocked out instead.

"A majority of states have outlawed it, but corporal punishment remains widespread across the South. Behind Texas and Mississippi were Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Florida and Missouri.
African American students are more than twice as likely to be paddled."


The Dixiecrat Secesh Traitors can''t whup their Nigras any more, so they''ve taken to beating up Nigra children (and their own!) The Old Confederacy is really a Third World country embedded in the USA.

Since the abused child becomes the abuser, this propensity to beat the *** out of 3-year olds may explain why it seems to be the Southerners who are so anxious to have wars, kill the "mud races", murder civil rights leaders, and the like.

Perhaps the cleansing nuclear fire, disposed over Mississippi, Texas, and the rest would be a step in the right direction.

It is not illegal to spank your children at home.
Posted by checkthepast

But because so many people (including the children) believe it is illegal is the reason such a high percentage of the next generation are so flip[ and mouthy.

Also the real study here should be "why a disproportional amount of minority children (and adults) behave in manners that require disipline by todays standards and laws.

as it became illegal to spank your children at home.

So this is how so many end up in prison...

End azz busting now!

[concorde5]

I''m a minority and I was paddled in school. It was always for something that would be considered minor today. Chewing gum in class, talking out of turn, etc. I remember one time I got a spanking for something I didn''t do. I was mad but I got over it. Overall the kids who got paddled were much better behaved than those who weren''t.

[barbaraf4]

You are confusing a beating with a spanking...the two are WORLDS APART! Posted by DaVicar2

I guess they forgot to tell my father that fact.

[barbaraf4]

I thought corporal punishment had been outlawed in the schools - just about the same time as it became illegal to spank your children at home.

[iuphockey12]

Spoken like a thug. Unfortunately, I have to work with people like yourself who tell me that their wonderful parent beat them and boy, did they know to respect their father. However, the same people telling me this are now drug addicts with all kinds of problems, including prison and more. Some success story it is that a parent beats his kid, but the kid turns out to be a piece of krap anyway.

Theres a difference between getting hit when your a child for doing something bad and getting the living h-ell beat out of you for no reason. The kids that get beat on for no reason are the ones who become problems. We are talking in moderation. Give your child one choice, to either follow directions or get spanked. Listen or get spanked. There are no options or bargaining with your children. Thats when they know they can get away with things a find loop holes. They arent dumb.

[newsnut123]

RUDY 654, ITS USUALLY THE KIDS THAT GET NO DISCIPLINE THAT GROW UP TO BE THUGS. THEY ARE NOT TAUGHT AT A YOUNG AGE TO RESPECT AUTHORITY OR THERE ARE CONSEQUENCES. IF THEY ARENT DISCIPLINED, THEY FEEL THEY CAN DO WHATEVER THEY WANT.

[rudy654-2009]

Human Rights Watch is a left wing liberal organization who enjoys race baiting. I would not believe anything they say. The weenies in charge want to take charge of your kids and tell you how to raise them. My dad was a disciplinarian. He used appropiate discipline to fit the situation including a swat on the behind or just a firm verbal command. My brother and I respected him and we knew he was in charge. He was always there when we needed him.

This is why we have so many problems today. Kids arent being disciplined like they should and doing whatever they want. They need their little a-sses beat every once in a while. It happened to me and I turned out ok
