Spanking vs Beating and the difference ....

I don't understand parents today! Their children are wild and spoiled and the only reason I can come up with is that parents do not spank there children or punish them when they are being bad. I think that spanking is a good thing for parents to practice, NOT beating because there is a line between the both. I am a firm believer in children being disciplined. There are different ways to discipline children I am not saying that spanking is the only nor the bast way but it is a way. Just as long as the child gets the point of what is right and what is wrong. Beating is completely different and totally WRONG!!! A parent has no right to beat their kid, that mean hitting them to cause them harm resulting in broken bones, fractures, hemorrhaging, concussion, etc. I hope you get what I am saying. A child's bottom has fat just as any other bottom in the world, so if it get spanked it really doesn't hurt that much. What it is with most children is the thought of getting spanked the hurts the most, its completely mental. Of course the child has to deserve it, meaning he needs to be bad to deserve it, if a parent likes hitting his kid for fun then that person DOES NOT deserve to be a parent. So what I don't get is that there are parents whose kid goes nuts at stores or at an office or where ever and they do absolutely NOTHING!! I have heard some parents say 'Oh stop it dear' or 'don't do that' yet the child keeps on doing what he/she is doing. What the heck is that? That child should have the respect to listen to their parent, and the parent should be the adult enough to have taught their child from the beginning. I was spanked once when I was a child, and I learned what was good and what was bad. I didn't and don't get into trouble I completed school and college. I am not saying that others are the same as me but I an just saying if I learned why can't others. So spanking I think is a good thing to do if it is not to an extent like beating. Plus what is that new thing that when people see a kid getting spanked they assume the child is being abused that is total BS, a parent has a right to spank or punish their kid the way they see fit, if another person sees it is not there business to assume. Now if a person sees a kid get punched in the head or face or back or stomach etc then yeah it safe to assume that kid is being abused. But a good spanking on the butt is not bad or wrong sometimes it is needed. One more thing parents STOP cussing at you kids!!! Children are cussing younger and younger its not right. My kid would not dare utter a bad word he knows them but he himself knows they are no good and that they sound bad coming out of a persons mouth. People please let your kids be kids. To other adults pay attention to your own kids and if need be the kids have a butt spank them if not there is other ways of punishment. Sitting still on a corner, copying a dictionary, meditating on what they did, even writing a paper on why what they did was so bad... as long as they know the difference between whats right and wrong. God Bless...

Halloween has come and gone....

It's been while since I have added onto this blog, I do apologize for that. I haven't been doing well, been in a a lot of pain but that is to be expected with my tendon and nerve problems. Today I am well enough to tell you about what we did for Halloween.I have a 9 year old nephew I have raised like a son and he dressed up as Dracula, I have to admit he was a great looking Dracula. He went to school and he said that the younger kids that saw him became frighten. As any little boy he thought this to be the funniest thing ever. So when we got home after school we had an early dinner he got to relax after his homework then I re-did his Dracula Make-up. Like always I Zombied out my face although this year it was more punk zombie mixed with joker mouth, anyways it was kinda creepy-ish. So we started out for trick-o-treating, the funny thing is we get into the car to go to a different neighborhood and my boy has the biggest pillow case he could find plus he had a plastic bag. He saw me kinda chuckle and said "This isn't my first rodeo!!" I busted out laughing. Sometimes this kid is just way too much!! So it was me, my mother and Dracula going out trick-o-treating, my mother drove while me and Dracula were walking around going house to house. When it got dark enough my mother and I switched (she doesn't like driving in the dark) so while I was driving I was watching all the costumes and people walking around. I noticed that all the people trick-o-treating were of ALL ages, not just kids. I starting thinking, maybe that's why a lot of people were offering me candy and asking where my bag was, I just go because I have fun walking and going with my boy. But maybe next year I will also carry a bag, tee hee. I saw adult couples trick-o-treating, in my hometown Santa Paula California THAT was never seen!! I remember as a kid I would walk around with my parents and when I got older I still went around trick-o-treating until I was spotted by someone that recognized me and told me I was too old and they wouldn't give me candy, so I got a little cousin to go with me the next year. I have always loved to dress up for Halloween but I don't like parties. I am a family type of girl. So my point is that New Mexico for Halloween is soooo much cooler, ADULTS also get candy WOOOHOOO!!! I think this should be practiced everywhere, because if an adult can take the time to dress up and get a costume and go out with their kid or alone then people SHOULD give then candy, the rule is as long as they say "trick-o-treat". The original tradition started with adults and just morphed into a child thing. So to end my story we got home and my Dracula had almost the entire pillow case FULL of candy, I couldn't carry it my dad had to get it into the house. I went through the bag of candy and sadly I found about 5 pieces that were very suspicious so I threw them away, still leaving us with a big pile of candy. Probably last us a heck of a long time. I truly hope that everyone everywhere had a great Halloween!!!
