Thursday, December 29, 2011 10:38:08 AM Good example of when the comments posted here, are more interesting than the post itself. The trolling, the rants, the isms, and of cource - it's not really a debate if the ole' "your'e so typical liberal/conservative" hasn't come up, and after we do the political thing sexual orientations is most definately an argument, and you know we are about to wrap this baby up when all the ranting has turned into "toilet- store" insults, and one- liners about taking it up the a55 |

@ CrakrJak - how can we be so far apart when we agree on so many things?

Tuesday, December 27, 2011 8:31:33 PM Crakrjak: "That kid should go to bed with no dinner after a disrespectful salute like that. If I had ever done that it would've been followed up with a quick backhand to the face and likely return of all my Christmas presents to the store as well. When did this sort of poo behavior become 'cute' ?" --------------------------------------- When I told her I was taking a picture just for "Crakrjak".

Tuesday, December 27, 2011 4:21:17 PM Magickrat - "I think what you're missing is that this was just a simple picture taken all in good fun." How do you know? Did you take it? Maybe it was sent to her estranged father as a hurtful move by her mother. Gerry - "If you can't understand automatically why it's bad, you never will so I won't waste time explaining it. Sufice it to say 10 years from now you will be wondering where your kid went wrong." Sometimes kids can overcome the obstacle of horrible parenting. |

Tuesday, December 27, 2011 3:47:32 PM I have a two year old and I wouldn't dream of taking a picture of him like this. It's not that I'm uptight; we have all kinds of fun: Coloring, playing "seek", jumping on the bed, reading stories, scaring the crap out of each other jumping out from behind things. You know, fun. Getting him to flip the bird doesn't sound like fun to me. I'm sure no two people parent the same and what is right in my mind is not right in others, and that's fine. As long as hate and disrespect is not being taught, power to you. Here is my question about this picture: was this girl taught the gesture she is making is rude in our society? Or will she just remember "Mom took a picture of me doing this and thought it was funny. I should do it to everyone." If it were the former, fine. To each their own. If it's the latter, bad parenting. |

Tuesday, December 27, 2011 3:08:43 PM it's an obvious truism no, it's a point of view You've decided, aparently, that encouraging kids to act rudely and like little gangsters is okay and you've apparently decided that a harmless photo op is going to turn the kid into a horrible person it seems like you didn't understand what i said about context before. i'm betting the parent's wouldn't be ok with the girl telling them to f*ck off. what you can't seem to understand is that people do learn context eg> swearing in front of friends as apposed to parents maybe she's gonna be a bitch when she's a teen but i'm damn sure it's not going to be because of something as trivial as this |

Tuesday, December 27, 2011 3:01:28 PM I think what you're missing is that this was just a simple picture taken all in good fun. It doesn't mean this kid is going to become a serial killer or hack her parents up in their sleep. It doesn't mean that her parents are card-carrying Nazis. It doesn't mean anything more than a simple funny pic of a cute innocent little girl doing something devious, most likely egged on by a parent or older sibling. I'm sure she knows what she's doing is wrong outside the context of this photo & I'm sure she doesn;t go around flipping everybody off. Believe me, the world won't stop spinning because of this photo... |

Magickrat- "I think the point he was trying to make is ..." I'm not the word of God...you don't have to interpret me. Pretty simple stuff "If you don't get it - you don't get it". But what do I know? Obviously I did something wrong with my kid or he wouldn't want to be a lawyer. As far as not understanding why the photo's wrong, it's an obvious truism. I could go on and on but why? You've decided, aparently, that encouraging kids to act rudely and like little gangsters is okay. I'm sure that will definately encourage them to become polite teenagers and terrific adults. Don't teach small lessons when they are small, wait until they're big and can understand it, is that it? I'm just guessing here because I haven't got the vaguest clue why encourage children to do rude, obnoxious or stupid stuff is a good idea. Maybe I'm the one who's missing something here. |
