It happened to me

I think one of the problems is many parents are lazy and expect society to raise there kids.........

Dont blame teachers for your kids not learning, you have a responsibility as a parent to do your bit!!!!

I was always smacked as a kid, always acted up when dad was away (interstate trucky) because mum's smacks weren't as bad hahahaha but when dad came home there was hell to pay, yikes!
I think I turned out okay?

I remember mum giving it out,jugcord broom mixing spoon
but if dad gave it to me it was a clip under the ear and to
your room young fella think i turned out ok

Nah roofy you're a shockin bloke..... just kidding of course! ;)

Exactly right Todd, bring back discipline at home, the n schools. I remember even the police giving clips round the ears to chopsy kids.......mine have only ever had a light tap because they pay more attention when I raise my voice...... and man do they know they're in trouble when that happens............ to many do holders saying its wrong to do smack your child, put them on a naughty step instead they say, let's turn society soft....... well bollox to that, I will discipline whatever way I see fit and I even let my mates discipline my kids if they're doin something they shouldn't and I didn't see it.....

all tapped out!!!

Maybe were brothers *L*

Same my mum use to give us kids a smack and we would laugh @ her, when dad got home we either got the leather belt or the wooden ruler which hada steel edge.....now that thing could draw blood.

I think I sorta turned out ok *L* ok maybe I didn't but at least I have respect for other people and show common courtesy

Very well done BA,true self control there.Not sure i would have done the same.
I have on a few occasions got out and acted like a nut job getting to his car first and going nuts everytime they try to get out i slam the door shut on them them explain to them that i really dont care about my car,the question is DO YOU those who have meet me would understand why that works so well!!!!!!!!

Another time i had the kids in the car was being followed be a loser with mate's in his car who were screaming abuse and trying to get me to pull over,so did the only thing i could think of,i rang a mate and told him what was going on ill be at your house in about 5 min,His reply was "bring it".
I pulled up his driveway and told the kids to get out and go straight to his shed and shut the door,the morons got out and started on me should have seen their face's when 5 mate's (who are more crazy then me) walked out of the house to back me up!!!!!!!!!

BA no need to worry mate if things went bad you got his rego which means it wouldnt be hard to get an address.What would he think when a mob of angry patrols pulled up out the front of his house.

RLI i have not met you but i like you already!!!!!

Hahahaha Chester I think I'd crap my pants even if it was just you that got out of the car!!!

Those who know and even if you dont it was very obvious I was joking, I believe if my kids got that bad they would get a smack on the bum and little Alexander got his first at Northland a few months ago (he is 2) and I was looked at like a demon.

He had his nappy on and is well protected from daddy's big hand!!!!

And I love my wife and kids so much and would never abuse nor would I stand to see someone else abuse a woman or child but a smack on your kids bot bot is needed every now and then

Mate,

This is all so true, my kids are 10 and 12 and I can count on one hand how many times I have had to smack them. The great thing is now because they got a little bit of tough love when they were younger they don't really need it now. I say this because the daughter is the twelve year old and is getting to that age where she is feeling her way with boundaries and dad has to get a bit hard on her.

I can honestly say that my kids have never, ever done the tantrum thing in shopping centers as they knew from very early on that mum and dad wouldn't stand for it. As a friend of my wifes said the other day talking about a particularly ordinary kid, his problem was he was allowed to "free range". I think this is becoming more prevalent with kids today, the parents don't want to take responsibility for what their kids are doing.

And teachers, cops and other figures of authority are powerless because of all the bloody bleeding heart do gooders (I sound like a "shock jock") who believe it's wrong to take a firm hand.

I getting that way I believe National Service should be reinstated, let the army force some discipline into the halfwits in society.
