So maximillion, to teach a kid that it's wrong to hit someone else, you hit them? I see...


Basically, yes. My spankings are not violent. Read on. And yes it has worked for my kids.

If you read my entire post you will understand better. This kid's problem is not in the fact that he hit his dad per se but rather that he is being rebellious. Kids need to respect authority figures such as parents. If they don't learn this lesson early on then they are going to be disrespectful later on. Read lcuky760's post as an example.

I posted at length about my spanking method because I want people to understand that there is a difference between a proper spanking and child abuse. I know some parents go off and hit a kid immediately when they misbehave. This is child abuse in my opinion. My spanking discipline is a consistent process that takes minutes to execute because I am talking to my children most of the time. The actually spanking part is only a small portion of the time. My voice is calm and loving, but I am firm about the rules and the consequences. My kids do not view spankings as a violence.

Most of time I only have to threaten to spank and they immediately obey. It's the idea of the consequences that causes them to correct their behavior. That's the idea. Again, Lucky760 confirms this.

BTW, "spare the rod, spoil the child". It's the rod of discipline, not a physical rod for whipping. I never would use an instrument to hit my children.

"I still use spanking as a form of discipline but for extreme conditions such as disobedience or rebellion (which this kid demonstrates when he hits his dad)."

Do any of you know anything about what your saying?^ (except MGR)

This is ADS, Active Denial System. Its non-lethal, does not cause permanent or lasting damage, and the effects wear off as soon as you move out of the beam. Its not so much radiation, as most people think of radiation. Your space heater radiates. (it all depends on how you use the word) This particular ADS uses electromagnetic wave at a frequency of 95 GHtz to excite the nerve endings in your skin, about 1/64 of an inch deep. This shit is bad ass, and its to bad they haven't developed it sooner.

@direpickle - So you would would rather people shoot civilians, than use something like this? Douche.

@Abducted - This is always been a fear of the people. How do you fight an oppressive government with such a huge Military? The English did it. Its about standing up for whats right. I took an oath to defend the constitution, and I ca tell you if i ever got some "suppress the free people" bullshit kind of orders, there ain't no fucking way. Thats the day I'll be tried for shooting A superior officer.

@Maximillion - Double Douche for the "prefer bullets" comment.

@HollywoodBob. Triple douche. Yes some older systems like PATRIOT are still large, but it is old technology and it has been around for a while. Did you ever think that the size serves a purpose? BAM. Know something before you make yourself look like an Idiot.

@Cumhuffman - I laughed, only because the RADAR in PATRIOT (the field I work in) will cook a bag of popcorn as you throw it across the antenna. This device will not cook you, or kill you, but your comment was funny nonetheless.

@Sheppard. Lasers? who said anything about lasers?

@rottenseed - your avatar right back at you. (insert avatar here) you buddy!

The "europe version of cannonball" which is shown here has nothing to do with Cannonball. It is called Gumball 3000 and was created by a guy called 'Maximillion'. The guys in this video are quite famous for their video coverage of the race.
