GOOD JOB!

I wish I were still in high school. I wish I hadn't made the stupid mistakes I did, either.

When I have children they're going to be beaten if they don't get good grades. And if they ever wisen up, attempting to call social services, I'll beat them even harder till they complacently do good for themselves and remain submissive.

I don't believe in the modern-day sissy system of letting your children do as they wish so as to encourage a 'free mind' and the like. Educational excellence is important, whether anyone likes it or not. Once they're decently settled and I'm in a nursing home they can fuck up all they want.

I won't beat my kids, but I will chain them to the desk at school if I have to. I'm not too worried about it. They both like school. You never know though... One fucked up influence and they could go off on some wacked path that I can't even fathom now.

I think warmth, kudos, support, interest, and development of good listening skills likely works best, but I say that only because I was the kind of kid who balked at punishment--the more I was punished or restricted, the more I escalated.

lol, they wouldn't want to. I wouldn't beat them hard, or for no reason, but a nice sharp slap to the face when I see an F and a few days of being grounded from anything but studying could do wonders. I had friends whose parents put the fear of God in them concerning academics. Those friends are now in prestigious out-of-state schools, making excellent grades and achieving great things. One guy designs ships for the military and is in Japan working on a project right now.

I'm not saying being prestigious is necessary, but I'd rather my children have both options available to them, living a simple life or living a grand life, before they make their decision.

Yeah.. I think some kids cave in the face of punishments... and some do like you.... and me.

That's exactly how my kids are. (and they get it from me probably). Encouragement and actually listening to them works wonders.

When I was a kid, that type of punishment just made me more devious about getting away with things. Encourage me and I would study like crazy. The #1 thing you can do for your kids is listen to them and give them some attention. I see so many kids who are just ignored.

[e-jewell]

I was pretty much ignored. My parents were indifferent. They'd tell me I'm smart and could do well, all that jazz, but my grades weren't too hot. There's quite a few reasons I should have been beaten more soundly as a child.

maybe you could go visit grandma after you graduate!
