Abortion is bad mkay, all children have a right to life no matter how dispicable the people spawning and raising them may be.

Modern parents are bad - because they regret all the hardships they went through, being raised by their parents.

They did not use their experience to figure out a balance between raising and loving their children. They regret all the things they were denied. Instead, they get back at their parents by letting their children act like total monsters.

Thats pretty much exactly what I think, but I get tired of whining about shitty parents.

I've found a lot of people who say they don't like other people's kids, dare I say the majority of people. Perfectly friendly people, parents themselves, who love their kids. It's nothing to be ashamed of. You do not have to like other people's children to be a decent person.0

Much of the problem with "kids" and I say even the 25 and under "kids". Is that their parents spoiled them. Many times the father and/or mother are working 10+ hours a day, commute 1+ hour, have many responsibilities so they give their kids all sorts of things. Kind of trying to buy their love and time and make themselves feel less guilty. I do it to my kids somewhat too. I mean when you got out and your 3 year old wants a matchbox car for $1.29 you buy it b/c he gets soo happy about it and it's less than people spend on a stupid cup of coffee.

However the problem is kids become spoiled and feel like they get everything they want without working for it.

My kids are fairly well behaved but I can't stand parents who let their kids do whatever the hell they want. They think they are being "nice" but I believe kids like to know boundaries and I think they appreciate discipline and structure.

lol what a stupid bitch ass writer and stupid ass piece.

1) Most parents don't take their kid out - and if they do often times they have no choice. I'm sorry, but you can't just leave a 3 year old home to go get groceries. You can't give a kid a sleeping pill for the flight. Do you think I want you to witness my 3 year old throw a tantrum? Sorry but it fucking happens. Why would I want to pass this torture on to you? But sometimes we need to get to point B so deal with it, you were a shithead once.

2) People like him are why we can't spank our kids today - the pussified progressives that say it's child abuse

3) He probably lumps in 2-4 year olds, whom you cannot discipline, with older kids whom you can discipline. 2-3 year olds have no logic, and they are retards - they don't understand the concept of behavior. You can beat the shit out of them all day long but they will not understand why they are being beaten.
