Discipline

I grew up getting my butt spanked, or the snot smacked out of me. I don't do it to my own children, not because I think its wrong, I simple believe that there are better ways to teach/train/educate/warn children.

Its like my Soldiers, I want them to follow me because I'm a good leader not because they fear me.

the same goes for my children, I want them do as I say because I am a good parent, not because they are afraid. I don't want to learn through fear because what they learn is fear.

 

Time out in Africa?? lmaooo Wont happen ever no matter how the world evolves You would get a good spanking of your life actually the flesh on my ass is a bit harder there than any other part of my body cuz you would be stripped naked and caned .There is a thin line between torture and discipline in Africa now i know i shouldn't bring this up since it will feed into some stereotype but some women mostly uneducated in my country put ginger which has been grounded /grinded in their daughter's pussy as punishment OUCH! Now that's extreme discipline(torture):smt028

 

I agree totally. I was raised by devoutly religious parents who took the phrase, "spare the rod and spoil the child" seriously. Being a "good" child and never getting into serious trouble was no reason to be whipped with extension cords until I had bloody welts. But, this was regarded as the parent's prerogative. All it did was to teach resentment, and didn't serve to decrease the boredom or a precocious child. I don't believe in corporal punishment. For me, it's simply a different form of bullying, a big person beating up on a smaller person. Discipline should take the form of correcting and affecting behavior without causing physical or mental harm, period.

 

Humm its funny I got a lot of whoopings most of my friends who got them when they did bad turned out ok. The ones who didn't seemed to be the ones getting in trouble a lot.

I will say though the most effective discipline came form the non beating ones. IE when I was bad once and really wanted to go swimming, I could not and had to watch the kids play all day at the poolside.. Let me tell you that was worse than any beating because I loved playing in the pool when I was younger.

Discipline is need though whether its physical or mental. Its needed to let us know the consequences of our actions so that we can become responsible individuals

 

or figure a way around the consequences. lmao

 

there is NOTHING like a good leader, whether you're in the army or corporate America. One of the reasons I like the show Band of Brothers, is because you get to see the leadership dynamic realistically put to the test. On one hand you have a piss-poor officer named Sobel, and on the other hand you have a solid one named Winters. You get to see how the soldiers react to both of them, and their willingness to follow Winters through hell and back. Sobel on the other hand..no one wanted to be in a small unit he was leading.

I definitely recommend a few ROTC courses to everyone, just so that they can get some good hands-on experience with leadership. You probably won't be leading on the company level unless you opt for commissioning after 4-years, but you should be getting some good squad/team leader mess going.

 

Or, you can go to B-school where they teach leadership as well, through projects, assignments, etc. It also brings up the age old debate of whether good leaders are made or born. Personally, I was exposed to leadership through formal education and as well as three years of ROTC when I was in high school, and was a cadet major. I think that some people have natural traits that make them good leaders. These can be improved upon through experience and training, IMO.

 

The main reason the United States is a dying power. Since the destruction of the traditional family structure (you can see the black community as the model) the rise in crime, social disorder, poor school performance, lack of civility in American society is tied to this lack of discipline. Children are telling their parents what they can and cannot do to them. Thank you the far left for destroying the minds of our children with your social engineering in the schools, the breakup of the family structure from your nanny state, and your de-masculating the american male in favor of weakness and not strength. Job well done.

 

As long as a man is not allowed to BE a MAN? there will be dysfunctional families cuz the woman wears the pants and can be emasculating. I know there are some weak ass men there who would step up to be a man but sometimes just because a woman makes more than her man she wants to assume leadership position in the marriage and thats plain wrong. Let the man be the head of the house, let him be the disciplinarian in the house and most often there is a stable home.
NEWSFLASH: The pants was not designed for women to wear, you disagree with me? picture this scenario, imagine you are in a plain place with no buildings or place to hide and you wanna pee? as a man you just unzip your pants and do your business, as a woman if you wearing pants you actually need to pull the whole pants down exposing your bum to all and sundry. So you see the pants were not designed for ladies, leave it for the men to wear and instil discipline in the home

 

lol

nice to see some of us are still living in the 1950s..you know..when it was okay to treat women like second-class citizens, hose down minorities with fire houses, hang bm from trees..all that other good stuff

progression sucks...now women are reaching a more level playing field, minorities are being treated better, bm dont have mass-fear of the white man, etc

 

There is nothing like level playing field, men think through problems, women talk through problems we are 2 different genders and men must take up leadership roles at home and wear the pants, Some people make excuses for being butt lazy and sitting on the couch all day playing video games INSTEAD OF TAKING THAT RESPONSIBILITY OF BEING A MAN . And yes the pants were designed for men equality or not
