    (no smacking of course - just enforced time-outs)

    Hey, that's what I was doing already. No, I wern't spying, my dad called by with gifts for my man,(he never smacked me) so I gave him some time, y'know popular in the 70's. As you were. :)

  • Legal Beagle: The Inexorable Advance,

    These both ease demand on pubic services and, in some cases, benefit the economy.

    That is why they legalised it ,I am sure, and many that support the economy, do use the 'pubic' services.FWIW, I think it's a wonderful name for an old profession :)

    I'll get my coat....

  • Hard News: Home, straight,

    it isn't just illegal drugs.

    Well, I waited 2 years to be able to drive with legal mind altering drugs, and a blood test for me shows up as alcohol reading because my drugs indicate the same blah blah blah that alcohol does but a professional understands this, and would cops?
    Thousands of people drive with mind altering drugs. Antidepressants being one, epilepsy pills being another.Injuries that are healing can have drugs prescribed that are antidepressants. BIg can of worms.

  • Hard News: Smack to the Future,

    But most of them aren't old enough, or confident enough, to do that yet. Most of them aren't articulate enough yet to tell their peers off - but we practice assertion every day.

    Even if not now it will eventually stick and then a sibling learns the same and then 2 in the family are hearing it and so on and so forth and as Steve said above (and I happen to agree with him on this occasion, ;) the cycle begins to break and before you know it someone shows concern in another household when it is necessary.....

    Oh, now I feel guilty

    And I feel no guilt

    Sounds like the Catholics on a Sunday, just add 3 Hail Mary's :)

  • Hard News: Smack to the Future,

    Indeed.

    Aw, shit.

    Give in to that child and buy the lollies they're tantruming over, and you've just reinforced the tantrum behaviour. Mint.

    Why not just show/teach your kids that if you buy the lollies (that starving children in Africa don't get ;) it is a treat and a child gets one sweet with the sweet behaviour that you know they can do. Kids learn quickly and quick enough to realise that good behaviour is often rewarded and bad isn't. Before accusations of bribery, unfair etc, I'll just point out that they will have to learn that one goes through life dealing with many issues in the same way, and as the adult, isn't it better to show examples that aren't confusing or hypocritical for children to follow ?

  • Hard News: Smack to the Future,

    To have had this thrust upon the entire nation without even asking is actually a pretty big thing. So this week seems to say, anyway.

    Yep, education is good,but there will always be laws that we live under that aren't always agreeable to everyone. Hell I think one should be able to smoke pot, but I personally don't need to have a hooha about it all, and at the same time I just wish people didn't smack their kids. I also feel anyone posting on here doesn't want to take away points of view held by others, Ciao.
