Quoted:
My parents administered some serious beatings when I was a kid. At early middle school age I once threatened my mother with a call to whatever child services use to be called back then. She handed me the phone and said "go ahead, enjoy living in a foster home." There is a reason I turned out OK. Because my parents were not afraid to discipline me.

One of my friends had his son threaten this crap. Daddy grabbed son's suitcase and started packing it. When the kid asked what he was doing, the answer was that if the police came to take him away, they were taking the kid too because the kid would never be let back in the house.

Brought that shit to a screeching halt.

I obviously dont like to see kids hurt- in fact, i would blame YOU for not protecting your child...."protecting" them by threatening someone who did nothing AFTER they are hurt is just silly.

Where I'm from, we never could act up around parents when we were younger. All of our parents made some sort of nonverbal agreement that if we were acting like little shits at a friend house we would get punished too.

My friends dad had a whippin tool that he used when kids got out of line. It was a 13'' piece of industrial rubber tubing. We never really knew what it was, we just assumed it was handed to him by Lucifer himself...

Anyways, we called the the black mamba and it would put us on the floor quick.

Way back in the day (late 80's) when I was 7 or so, I was at WalMart with my mom. Some little fucker was running around doing the same thing, then his huge hoosier mom comes up and starts spanking the shit out of him, I mean really wailing on him and he starts crying. My mom looked at the woman and said to her, if you don't treat your kids like animals, they won't behave like animals. The look on the woman's face was priceless. This was 20 years ago and I still remember it like it was yesterday.

Ahhh, gotta love Walmart.

I see this regularly at work too. I work in a clinic. A few times a week, I walk in the room, and there's Mom with her four kids with four different last names. Everyone one of them has 3-4 latex gloves on their hands, and they've rooted through the drawers, looking for band-aids, gauze, whatever. Medical supplies are strewn across the floor. Mom is sitting there calmly, either doing nothing, or texting madly, oblivious to the scene being created by her precious little snowflakes.
When I ask, "Why are they in all that stuff?", Mom says (beaming proudly), "Oh, little Johnny's going to be a doctor when he grows up."
Really Mom? With the sterling example you're setting, little Johnny's gonna be lucky to get his GED by age 25.
Growing up, you didn't touch ANYTHING at the doctor or dentist's office, and you'd get slapped in the back of the head if you stepped out of line.
<now get off my lawn>

charge the mom for the supplies the kids wasted.

In theory, that would be a great idea. However, the kids are probably on Medicaid. Thanks to our benevolent politicians, clinics are prohibited, by law, from directly charging patients on Medicaid. You can only bill their copay, and children don't have a copay on Medicaid.

This is just one of the many reasons clinics are dropping Medicaid. If you knew you were gonna get billed for your kid's behavior, the child would be disciplined.

Although I'm a proponent of selective spanking, I agree with bjkb1f on this one. All kids are gonna push the limits. Sometimes, they're gonna need swift punishment. But if you're consistent over time, there are other techniques besides beating your kid to a bloody pulp. If they get beaten for every little infraction, the beatings lose their effectiveness. The kid just thinks that taking a beating is part of life and expects it.
Instead, you try redirecting them to something else and let them know that running around like an escaped mental patient isn't acceptable, even if Wal-mart is filled with other mental patients.

I'm not under the impression that my kids are faultless little angels. But I can see improvement over time, especially when they get older.
By the way, what is a "hoosier"? My brother who lived in Kansas City says this occasionally. I figure he's not just talking about fans of Indiana basketball or the Gene Hackman movie.

Couple comments from the 'other side'.

It is extremely dangerous to properly discipline your children in public. While I agree that there is nothing wrong with a smack in the butt when necessary, you run the very real risk of some do-gooding white knight calling the cops or Child Protective Services on you.

And the problem isn't with the kids so much. Kids are kids, and they run and play; thats what they do. The problem comes when the parents can't see when their kids fucked up, like the people in the OPs story. If the parents had told little Johnny 'well thats what happens when you screw around' and had lil Johnny apologize to the OP, that would have been a much different story.

Keeping it out of the public eye didn't help my step brother. He spanked his stepson Noah, the grandparents found out and called the police. My step brother spent a night in jail as I recall.

Those grandparents never saw the kid again, right?

<Anonymous> Now, I’m sure many of you have encountered little shits in supermarkets.
Little kids running about and knocking things over, being rude, walking all over their parents, you know the kind.
But the worst are the biters. Yes, those little cunts that feel it is okay to bite you whenever they feel like it.

<Anonymous> Okay, here’s the best part. A biter got me today when I was grocery stopping. He broke the fucking skin, too.
This was when the gears started turning, the moment I saw a tiny sprickle of blood on the little shit’s teeth as he was grinning at me like the little cunt he is.
I made my eyes get wide, and started screaming “SHIT! SHIT!.” Now, my good friend, Tom we’ll call him, was there too, and he instantly picked up on it.
He started shouting “FUCK! MAYBE HE DIDN’T GET IT! FUCK!.” By now, the kid is scared shitless and starts crying, and instantly,
Mizz Mom appears out of nowhere and starts getting pissy at us for yelling at her kid.

<Anonymous> Here’s the kicker, I look her straight in the eye and say, “Mam, get your son tested as soon as possible, he just bit me and I’m… I’m FUCKING HIV POSITIVE.”

<Anonymous> And now there is silence. Not a peep in the entire store. The brat knows he just fucked up big time because his mom isn’t defending his ass.
She just stares at me wide eyed. I walk away from them, buy my shit from the wide eyed cashier, all the while blood is dripping from my calf,
making a nice little trail on the floor. And, just s we leave, we start to hear the mother sobbing. Sobbing like the cunt she is.

<Anonymous> I have never felt any more satisfaction than the moment I heard that sob.

I got tired and just gave up after 5 minutes. I got my ass smacked when we got home though.

One of my nephews has been an asshole since he could walk. He is now in middle school, just a bigger asshole. Parents basically let him run the roost. Parents basically have taught him no social skills. He's been in private school for the last 6 years. The piper is now being paid, he's in the local public school and getting beat up on a regular basis. He finally ran into some kids his own age, he's finally run into kids who don't take crap off of him, he's finally run into staff that lets the kids be kids, not a bunch of politically correct wimps. Life is good....

Update: wife was called by her sis, seems the kid caused the SIL to go to the hosp e-ward for a fucked up ankle given to her by the kid when he wasn't getting his way. Told wife this is just the start, and that her stupid sis can next expect the kid to start in on the drugs, hell, he's already been stealing.

I have absolutely no compunction about verbally correcting other peoples kids. All of my parents friends did thie when we were growing up and we learned to respect the wishes of our elders.

I don't worry about correcting my kids in public either.

I have done it enough that now I can correct them with a look.

It pays too. Saturday my son (10) and I were in Johnny Rockets with a load of other families (none which we knew). We were about half way through our meal when the waitress came by with our refills and said, "I really have enjoyed waiting on you guys, your son is so polite and well mannered", as she cut her eyes towards the other little bastards that were raising nine kinds of hell.
