Kids and toy guns

[Brett327]

@Brett: You may refuse to be a parent, but, at best, you can hope not to become a parent. Even Durex isn't perfect.

In that unlikely event, I'd just hire a drifter to kill the chick. If that didn't work, what I would definitely NOT do is have her over for a little celebratory champagne and a nice long soak in the hot tub. Nor would I turn up the temperature as high as possible or encourage her to drink to excess because that could cause a spontaneous abortion, and that would be wrong. I would definitely NOT recommend any of the above things to others in that situation.

Ya and I wouldn't accidently punch her in the stomach 3 months along...

But seriously, there are parents who don't let their kids go to an army themed party?? It's these stupid liberal parents with their time outs and family nights that are raising a generation of weenies and crybabies... I may not have the right to say this but.... "I weep for the future"

Really now, Really?

I agree with proper use and instruction at a young age, but I don't think thats the response that any kid will give. Teach them but also lock up your guns (although I'm sure you do). And ask your kids parents if they lock up their guns...

Yes, really. It's how you raise your kids. Got any of your own?

I'm positive that is how my son will respond. I know my son, you don't.

There is nothing wrong with family nights.
Whats wrong with these parents is that they let their kids get away with murder. These kids have been given to much power and honestly, I think there are some parents that are scared of their kids. I see it all the time around here.All they have to do is tell the teacher mom and dad hit them too hard and boom, CPS is rearing it's fat ugly head into someones personal business when, sometimes, they have not a right to be there.

Wow Brett, too many nights alone in Whidbey with too much time on your hands really does screw you up........

Start them off right when they are young.

I agree. I started as youngster learning gun safety and hunting. It didn't turn out a serial killer. Unless you count my service in Iraq.

Daddy coming home drunk and shooting your dog in the head....that creates a serial murderer.

I hope you didn't actually see that. That would've screwed me up.

Heres my new get rich quick plan. Throw your kid an Army themed party. Any kid who doesn't show up obviously has parents who don't own guns. Then you know what houses to rob.

I honestly can't believe some of the totally out there stuff thats been going on in our society. It's one thing to try to keep your kids away from guns, but it's another to try to pretend they don't exist, and make your kid think the same.

 

[MasterBates]

BurghGuy,

That is one of the prime tenets of Modern Liberalism..

Pretend the problem does not exist, and it doesnt.
Belive you nonsensical souloution works, and it does...

Has this child not been designated a sex yet?

And no, I didn't see that. I took it from a book I read and I doubt anyone will make the connection.

 

[BlackDog421]

uhhh. So if you tortured animals but didn't play war, is that OK? just asking...cause i know this guy who was wondering...

I basically just posted that animal thing as a joke, but no I do not think that is OK... The fact that you know somebody who was wondering, creeps me out. Tell him to get a hobby. Play some sports.

"Dude, you're always wrong. Jimmy Dean makes sausage. James Dean is an actor. It's the Leaning Tower of Pisa, not the Leaning Tower of Pizza. Steely Dan... is not one person. We get Fringe benifits... not French benefits."

What the hell is wrong with time outs and family nights? Did you not have them? It would explain alot...

You mean Fed-Ex isn't too expensive? <looks around expectantly>....We Don't get French benefits?!

No seriously. My parents were not exactly "time out" people. It was more don't do that. If I did it I got smacked.

Didn't we have a thread a short time ago talking about disciplining children where I was accused of not being smacked as a child? and how that made me a pu$$y? Come on guys...get your story straight. Pick a side! You're like politicians in here.

As I recall, getting spanked always sent a quick and clear, "You know you're acting like a little shit, and STOP it" message, and was useful as far short-term and immediate results. But I've got to say that time-outs were much more frustrating, degrading, humiliating, and memorable. Always reminded you of how little and powerless you were as a child, and that you WERE in fact subject to "the rules." (Negative rep vs. banning?!?)

'Course, the only thing I really tried to avoid in calculated earnest was getting my mouth washed out with soap; it tasted bad, it was always a protraqcted and messy struggle, and, much like the sunblock of my youth, always ended up in my eyes as well...

But, more pertinently, I'd like to stress that Airwarriors, while prone to gang tackling and choir-preaching, is in fact NOT a collective or hive-mind entity. There are too many potential queen bees running around and cannibalism is far too rampant.
