rkzenrage, I knew you werent saying that. I was describing Merc's scenario, not yours, to point out that you dont agree with him.

Cool, and I am saying you are inmature teen who has never known the responsiblity of parenthood and never has even paid your own damm bills long enough to know what the term "responsibility" means. Now go get a job.

Ad hominem, ad hominem, ad hominem... yawn.
You have yet to respond to my arguments once.

You fail.

Well according to the teens on here, it sounds like 10 years old and unsupervised would be Ok with them.

You fail because you have no experience. If I fail it is because I fail trying.

No, age and treachery trumps youth.

Still more ad hominem?

When is it going to get through to you that even though I dont have kids, I know the effect of authoritarian dictatorship in the household?

You are saying your experience automatically makes you right. I'm saying logic says you are wrong.

Who's making more sense here?

It sure the hell is not you. Well I bet most teens would agree with you, so I will give you that others who lack the experience of parenthood may share your views.

TM, you have yet to even make an argument for anyone other than you to agree with! All you have done is call me every name you can think of. You have yet to defend the fact that you overcontrol your children other than the fact that you can.

Ok... can you respond to my post now? This does seem to be a peeve of yours.

Again, I know you have the hearing and attention span of a teen so let me repeat this slowwwwwlllly.....

Where do I "over control" my children?

Ibby · 04-21-2007, 12:08 AM

What's there to respond to?

Sure, parents should limit kids' access to ADULT content... I guess. (I rather resent the assumption that there is a such thing as adult content, but thats up to you)
But for a teenager especially, teaching them why they shouldnt do it then trusting them not to until theyre ready for it is the only acceptable course of action, in my book, and the only that will work.

Out of the mouth of a babe... why of course a teen such as you would make such a comment. You are all knowing. All experienced. So I would suggest that your comment of I am a Mother-fucking-Asshole because of the way I choose to parent is none of you punk teen business.

now is it? And may you be blessed with a child just like you, that is the best anyone could hope for you. I wish you the best. And I hope that no harm comes to any of your spawn because of your ignorance.

We need to make an 'ad hominem' smiley or something so I dont have to keep typing it over and over.
