Ted the Poster 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 Doesn't sound so bad now, does it? Um, yes it does? So after you hypothetically took your fucking test, how would the procedure go? Would there be one line to stand in to get your picture taken in front of a camera if you passed, and another line to get your balls zapped in front of an X-ray machine if you failed? "Ow, my sperm!"

CanadianChick 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 Why is it bad to let kids think they're special again? Fuck, I'd rather a kid think they were special than know they were really just average and would blend in the crowd their whole lives. God forbid we give kids some hope for the future, you heartless bastard. I'm not adding ANY of you on MySpace. Assholes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 Why is it bad to let kids think they're special again? "You're special" is right up there with "you're smart" as far as bad compliments for kids go. Praise them for effort and achievement instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrRant 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 It's not so much special as them having an inflated sense of self. They did it right in the 80's yo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 It's not so much making the kid feel "special", it's letting them think that the world revolves around them that's the problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My Sweet 16 does not represent a majority of the dang ol' youth. You can't tell me shows like that, glorifying that kind of behavior, don't have some kind of effect on youth of today. I mean, I don't remember watching any "The Little Spoiled Rich Brat Who Mouths Off To His Parents!" cartoons when I was a kid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"You're special" is right up there with "you're smart" as far as bad compliments for kids go. Praise them for effort and achievement instead. Are you trying to raise kids in a Skinner box or something? Maybe they are special, maybe they are smart, and maybe it's good to tell them that. Good lord, this board becomes such a tard party whenever anything involving parenting comes up. What will it take to make you realize that spoiled kids have always & will always exist? A good hard spanking? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darthtiki 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2007 No, see, I do advocate mandatory beatings of college students. I'm a college student and I even second this thought. Most of my campus is full of these self-important douchebags, then again I am in Orange County. Also on college campuses are the self-loathing, acting out rebellion students who can't reconcile that they are a product of an affluent middle class community for whatever reason. Whatever happended to the days when you had to earn respect until it was given to you? When you had these so-called child-rearing experts like Dr. Spock and the like indoctrinating the masses with this touchy-feely notion of self-esteem and chastising the notion of whooping a kids ass when they got out of line (to clarify, I am not advocating beating children until they are black and blue, but a good whack when they act up would suffice). While I hate the bitch with a firey passion for a multitude of reasons, I gotta agree with Dr. Laura's mantra of I am my kid's Mom/Dad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
