Aim for the sky, but sometimes you gotta work with what you have, and that might not be too bad; you end up appreciating things more. THE BLOGGERS

| || Saturday, February 27, 2010 || I had been wanting to post these things up for quite some time, and now I shall. These thoughts were actually spurred by one of the topics suggested for a module in school, which went something like "Spare the rod, spoil the child". My stand to that is neutral; yes, if your child is really out of hand and doing crazy things, then maybe, giving them a slap or two might work. But if you hit them for stupid reasons, then you should be hit too. These are some points I picked out from the net:These might seem trivial to the children who don't, or never get hit, but it might make much more sense to the ones who did, or do get hit. And to the parents, yes, it's going to be in your child's head for a long, long time, if you hit them for issues that could have been talked about. Talking to them about issues and having a healthy discussion does help. And it wouldn't hurt to hear out your child's point. They aren't arguing with you all the time, sometimes they just want you to listen. And for the guys out there who do this. Come on. We know you how much you love yelling out vulgarities when you're with your fellow guy friends. Sometimes we girls don't get it, when you use, "Fuck you" or "Chi Bai" or "Na Bei" or other such unpleasant words, strung together in a sentence, like they are conjunctions, in a perfectly normal situation, where everyone's talking normally. It's really unpleasant to hear it every few minutes or so, when you have such conversations with your guy friends. But that's ok. Just don't use it on us girls. We're not your chums, we don't think it's fun when you talk to us using such language, and it's DEFINITELY NOT ACCEPTABLE WHEN YOU USE SUCH WORDS ON US. You're degrading us, yourself, and you're coming across as an asshole. A decent guy would NEVER use such unpleasant words on girls like it's no big deal, cause it is. You especially should never use it on a regular basis, or whenever you get into a fight. It's disgusting. To give you a better picture, imagine some person yelling such demeaning words at your mother or your sister, and I think the idea will be alot more clearer. And seriously, after having said all that, you give us your lame comforting words? Please. You can't try and take back words you already threw out. Alot of us will never understand that. |
