Ok Jude, you can dish it out but you can't take it. Fair enough. End of discussion.

 

Either the mother is lying or the problem is (the kids) in the classroom. Probably a combination of both. Pepper spray, as taught to my students, is a tool for self defense, NOT a method of punishment. Often this is precisely what these police officers are taught; that it has a disciplinary application as well. The taser is often deployed in the same fashion. Police will often tase and pepper spray as a form of correctional punishment, when there is clearly no imminent threat. Seriously, how many times have we seen this done?

 

That boy was no danger to anyone with an officer present. The cop sprayed him in correction, not as an act of protection. This is nothing more than another tyrannical manifestation of the police state being implemented and the people being conditioned to accept it.

Tara, I already asked that question but they refused to answer or even acknowledge.  If there's one thing I can't stand is advice on how to raise children from people who have none, even worse if it's a quote they pulled out of the bible.

Ok, one question......how many of you have children? I'm just curious. How would you really feel if your 8 year old child was pepper sprayed by a cop or a teacher in school?  I don't know about anyone else, but I don't want the school or some bozo cop disciplining or laying a hand on my kid, PERIOD. It is my job to raise and discipline my child and nobody elses.

I still can't believe that an 8 year old child no matter how violent he becomes, can be such a threat to the school enough for them to call the police. I look at how little my daughter still is at that age and it dumbfounds me that grown men can't restrain an 8 year old child......WTF?

And this article also mentions that the mother said that her son is never violent anywhere else but in school.....interesting to say the least.

Krypke - What is up with you dude!? Do you have some kind of stalkers syndrome or something? You don't know me, have never met me and yet you persist in hurling insult after insult at me. Now you want to psycho-analyze me? Dude, leave me alone!!!

Hello Friends, Dr Spock was a funded whore, with a sadistic inner -self to cope with. He was obsessed with an ego that drove him insane with puzzlement.  His own childhood was a clear indication that' Silver-spoon'   wealth is a nappy that never gets soiled, that left him with a severe intellectual constipation back-log, and when it uncorked many stool pigeons got showered by his 'Teachings' , do you agree?  E-Moth

Projection bias, is a psychological defense mechanism whereby a person unconsciously "projects" their own attitudes, intentions, and feelings onto another. One example of this process is someone acting in a disrespectful manner, berating others, and making impertinently bold assumptions about someone elses life that they know absolutely nothing about. It is acquittal by conscience, projecting the very thing you are guilty of onto someone else; the bully claims to be bullied to protect the conscious mind from his otherwise unconscious feelings that reflect the sum of this specific compartmentalization and his own inner character as caustic and truculent.

 

This is synonymous to, a cheating husband that begins to suspect that because he is cheating, that his wife probably is as well. So he projects his inner guilt onto her by making unfounded accusations. What YOU have done is disrespected us, with your lofty comments and exercised every form of what you have predicated upon myself, as MY personal faults, when in reality, they are your own. There are a few words to describe this Mr. Jude. The word hypocritical comes to mind. So does, disillusioned. As does 'asshole'. Paddling is archaic and imo barbaric. Down with the Charlatans!

 

As far as answers, I wrote an entire book full of them. Look Judas, if you seriously want to debate me, then post a blog and I'll quite thoroughly tan your behind.

Andy, I agree with you 100%. There is much more to discipline than just spanking a child. Those who were brought up in the Dr. Spock era of child rearing were basically taught that spanking is bad, even though it has proven to be effective for thousands of years. Interestingly, Dr. Spock himself has since refuted his own teachings and regretted much, if not all of his child rearing philosophy. But the point that I was trying to make before I was verbally assaulted, was that Colorado has NO, ZERO, ZIP, NOTA, discipline in their school system. So, when a police officer is actually forced to discipline a child for the system, people get upset at the police officer (and rightfully so) for doing what should have been done by the school. And the sad part in all of this is that the adults don't get it, but the the child understands that he did wrong. For all it's worth, I would thank this officer because he has most probably saved this child from a miserable life of lawlessness and self destruction.

You are right ,Jude.But some parents use corporal punishment in the wrong way and that's where they need to realize it is only to be used as the very last resort after careful listening and probing.Not in an angry spirit. " And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. " Ephesians  6:4

When a child is not taught discipline, the product of their lacking becomes obvious through such behaviors as bullying, name calling and disrespect. These same unfortunate children grow up to become arrogant, proud and self-serving.  Rather than offering up true debate, they mock and slander out of prejudice, anyone who disagrees with their opinion. Since they lack answers, they offer their 'views' as truths. You, KRYPKE, are the epitome of the undisciplined child. You are why I will fight to my last breathe, to keep discipline in the schools - including corporal punishment. And yes, parents are paramount to discipline (or lack there of).

Can we stick to the main subject and try to build rather than tear down what others are trying to express?
