I was rooting for a car to hit her.
That's the problem. Parents want to be their kids’ friend instead of their parents. So these little fucktards are nothing but disrespectful.
Wtf happened? When did properly disciplining children become abuse?
Sometime in the 90s, I think. Definitely, by the 2000s, you could get into trouble. Although, most don't know that an open hand on the butt is legal.
Back in the 80s, I talked back to my mom and she slapped me across the face. 😂 I never did it again!

Another factor (is this up to debate?) is the people are autonomous and not everything can be blamed on one's parents.
This moral flaw - blaming parents, not the individual - may be more detrimental than choice of discipline methods.
@loweel @thenorthern @SecondJon @umad80
I've always lived under, maybe generations of being taught this -- "don't do things in public that will put you and your family to shame." At home though, we were stabbing each other. 😂 Just kidding.
@loweel @lo @thenorthern @umad80 That's not my assumption, but it's interesting that it's your take.
What do you think the assumption is of the younger generation lecturing older people is, which seems to be what this video is showing?
@lo @loweel @thenorthern @umad80
Yes that's true. I have 6 kids at different ages and levels of development. I'd say kids start making their own autonomous choices around 3 years of average developmental age. You're making choices in alignment or in contrast to values you have been exposed to. But unless you lived in a bunker, your parents weren't the only influences. I'd venture to say that today we are exposed to far more influences than we used to be, and culture has changed as well.
I won't claim it's all me when my kids make good choices. They get that credit themselves. They also get credit when they make bad choices.
@SecondJon @loweel @lo @thenorthern
Utter bullshit.
If you don't teach your child anything: manners, respect, etc., they can't possibly understand what they are.
If you don't teach your child not to touch a hot stove, are they just going to go, ”Huh, better not touch that.”? Or will they touch it and learn the hard way?
We’re given the task to teach our children for a reason. It's up to them to use those lessons.
@loweel @lo @thenorthern @SecondJon
What? 😂
I get it. Your little pansy-ass is sooooo scared.
I'm a second-degree black belt. The only people who know respect better than I do is our military.
Sit down son, and let the adults stay in charge.
Also, when my fictitious sons find you, please send them my way. I'd love to see how awesome they are.
@umad80 @loweel @lo @thenorthern
Agreed.
It's up to them to use the lessons given,which coffee from parents and others. In this video, we have no evidence of parents giving or not giving lessons on morality.
Why do people rush to blame someone who isn't in a video (the parents that wet know nothing about) for the choices made by the person in the video.
I've got multiple kids. They all make different choices as children and will certainly continue to do so as adults. They're individuals making their own choices. We have limited influence over others, even our own children.
@SecondJon @loweel @lo @thenorthern
I don't disagree that we don't know the parents, but respect is taught.
My brother had a drug problem that eventually took his life. So I say this as someone who doesn't blame my parents.
But taking drugs is a choice that he did because of the issues he had.
He was never disrespectful.
Manners aren't something you gain or lose all by themselves.
@umad80 @loweel @lo @thenorthern
Yes, respect, like self control or any other virtue, has to be taught. But anything taught also has to be learned. It's a two way street.
I am sorry for your loss.
@SecondJon @loweel @thenorthern @umad80
To a certain point when people develop into their own person, sure. That age number varies for each one. The crucial years in a child's development is still important though. From my personal experience, I can always trace back to my childhood the values my parents tried to teach me. It didn't make sense then but now, they're invaluable.
The new generation it seems lacks a lot of attention. Social media has taught us that.
