I just hope he backed-up the data "on the other drive" after a beer/cig break. beer:

haha, maybe he brought along his jump drive happy:

heh i don't mind strict parents. hell, if i swear in front of my parents, i would still get a backhand in the face. i haven't sworn in my house to this date.

strict parents own, and im glad my parents raised me the way i did

My parents are pretty strict when it comes to respect and cleanlyness. My room must be neater than a marines, and i cannot backtalk to parents, or risk a backhand.

yeh but any probs porking a bitch in ur b/r..?

The one at fault here is the kid, obviously. He knew he wasnt allowed to watch the R rated movie, didnt say anything to your bro or dad about that, and then like a true dumass told his dad about it oOo:

Wow... that actually made sense. Oddly enough ditto with ^

I respect parents who "parent" their kids and even applaud "angry" dad for his decisions but in this case the kid knew what he was a doing by going around his wishes.

I'm not a father, so really I dont have much right to critisize, but I will do it anyway. I, personally, don't see the point in "babying" your kid. There are a lot of worse things in real life then watching an "R" movie, or playing an "M" game etc. If and when I ever have a kid, I would not want to treat him/her as a little kid. Instead, I'd want to treat him/her as an equal. I would want him/her to know that millions of people died fighting in WW2, and I would want him/her to realize the brutality with which humans can treat each other. And if that means showing the kid SPR, or the Pianist, etc, then I would do that.

My point being, in my opinion, parents need to be less protective of their kids, and treat them as they would have liked to be treated at that age. Kids need to know the reality of whats going on around the world. I think a lot of the problems with today's youth arose as a result of being "babied."

Gotta side with the parent on this one. No one should tell anyone how to raise their own kids. As long as you're under my roof, you abide by my rules, period.

I'll also respect other parents when it comes to "rules" but it would be nice to know beforehand. You gotta use common sense, i don't think i would play that DVD for them.....and i definately wouldn't let them come to this site !!

I completely disagree with this. I wouldlnt call it babied. Its bringing your kid up right. Obviously the parent and nycks parents has different opinions as to why the film was shown. But I was "babied" as a kid and hated it at the time, but it kept me out of trouble, having strict parents made me the polite, kind person I am today, and not like the other 10/20% of the population that are complete dicks.

Yes I agree with showing him the film, but I also side with his parents in trying to protect his kid.

thats not teh issue, mang. The issue is porn!!! dance:

I dont agree or disagree with the issue at all. Everyone has their ideal for raising children. But you need to let someone know beforehand

if this kid was allergic to peanuts, you would say my son is not allowed peanuts.

If you are worried about an R rated movie, they should have spoken up prior.

end of story.

happy:

As to how they do it, that is up to the parent. The only problem I have is with, trying to protect the kid, in this case. If it were a movie like say Devil's Rejects, then yea I could definetly see where you are coming from. But when its a fairly accurate portrayal of american forces in combat just after D-Day....

I think the reason why so many kids nowadays are so immature, is because their parents "baby" them. Surely you know what I mean. Even when speaking to certain young "adults" I find their views extremely narrow and immature. I take more joy in talking to my bro then i do with 80% or so of the people I come across that are around my age. Kids need to SEE what happened in concentration camps, what happened during ww2, what happened during 9/11, etc. Kids need to see that this is THEIR reality. This is the world in which they are growing up in.

However, these are just my views, as I said, I am not a father, so I really have no right ro critisize. Nyck is completely right in his above statement.

Explain to me what is the benefit of a 12 year old kid looking at disturbingly graphic videos? Fuck mang, when i was 12 all i cared about is ninja turtles and nintendo games. I turned out just fine.
