I fail to see how slight anti social behaviour implies my family fails at child raising.

Ps, i dont want kids. I make 0 effort to have a relationship. I turn down offers for sex because i dont want the relationship. Personal choice doesnt mean shit. Keep trying to insult me though, working fantastically so far.

Sounds like you're pretty fucked in the head. Hopefully drugs are the cause, else I feel bad for you.

This is the worst thing I have ever read in my life. No man turns down sex cause of a relationship, he simply says theirs a relationship for the sex and hits the ignore button. One does not use his hand if one can easy acquire the "pussy"

Most developmental psych is more theoretical/pseudo-science than anything. I mean, I wouldn't even qualify half that shit as a "soft science" so much as just downright anecdotal theory. Undergraduate psychology is the greatest joke of all undergraduate majors, for the most part.

I say this as a psych major. Clinical psych/clinical neuropsych.In grad school. If I ever teach psychology to undergrads, it'd get messy.

I have seen a lot of war movies, and have played dod on and off for 13 or so years... I have watched demos, and listened to ventrilo's,and shoutcasts during matches. I know more about war than the average person.

apparently most means all now.

reading comprehension, lost to the masses. by the way, anything you learn in school, i can find on the internet and read about. im not going to spend the time tracking down everything ive read in 10+ years on the subject just to satisfy your silly requests for information thats largly based on opinion and local societies. side note, history(specifically related to ww2) is an intense love of mine, and i will never say i know how combat troops feel. but i can say i (not fully) understand the social difficulties they have trying to integrate back into society via the massive amount of literature available on the subject from first hand and medical perspectives.

i dont even know how this got turned onto me, all i said was that being a parent doesnt make you the only one capable of passing judgement. somehow that becomes insults to me personally and means im judging the situation. hint: i never judged anyone on this thread. frankly its pathetic that your argument holds up so well you resort to personal insults to justify your viewpoints.

i find it amusing how i try my hardest, harder than anyone who doesnt have the issues i have can possibly imagine to keep my arguments civil and i get insulted. every fucking time. its like having a different opinion is somehow so fucking wrong that its worth personal insults to a man you have never talked to in depth. like im saying to gas the jews or some shit.

ps, if i was stationed with combat troops to observe and move with them, i could say with confidence i understand what they go through. because while i didnt shoot the gun, i was there when they got shelled. i was there when they lost a friend. i was there when they took a town. your argument is invalid on its premise.

Yeah, I don't think there was much developmental psychology in that class. It was more along the lines of "this is what a human being can do at age 3".

im glad you think i dont say shit in life outside of the internet. good to know that stereotype still exists. i dont think you understood what i wrote. i stay quiet because i say really offensive and mean shit without even realizing im saying really offensive and mean shit. it doesnt click in my head im saying really bad shit to people. it usually takes me a while to even accept i might have said really bad shit. my brain accepts overly blunt or horribly offensive as best if it gets the point across fastest, most people dont. i have trouble keeping that from effecting other people. i stay quiet so i dont get in 10 fights a week and offend everyone i meet.

i observe. i read. i know more about social interactions than most people - including parent/child interactions, simply because im trying to become a better person in regards to social interaction. observing and reading about how our society interacts is my best way to do that since i cant afford a degree in sociology or the therapy to help me. just because im terrible at it, doesnt mean i dont know it or understand it.

1) Blame the media. The media basically decides what we are exposed to and what we are not. How can we be blamed if we are not even able to know about the latter case? What should we do, then?

2) Had they both been equally covered, and had people been saying the guy on the right was at fault, then I (and I'm sure plenty of others), would have been defending him the same as Amanda Todd is being defended.

But we can keep comparing apples to oranges I guess. Aka, you can keep being duped by stupid comparisons which are not rooted in similar circumstance.

No, bottom line is having a kid doesnt make you lord of knowledge regarding children. What research in regards to my statement do i need to provide? Human civilization and raising children since its inception? Genetic traits that lead to ingrained knowledge without ever being taught? Perhaps personal experience with kids? Or do you want some book or study a person did based on one theory or another on how best to raise children?

You come out with a statement that says those of us without children are not fit to judge parenting, and i have to justify saying that shits dumb? Ill give you a good example. My mother had 3 boys. She helped raise 2 girls. According to your fucked up logic, she doesnt know how to raise a girl because she didnt have one. Wasnt a child once, and doesnt understand what a young girl goes through. Her experiences in life have no value because the sex of the child has differed from the previous 3

That makes no sense. You are oblivious. People only pay attention to kids when they're fucking up and embarrassing parents. Then its instantly "what a terrible parent its so easy because I was a kid once". Yup, logical.

SKiNnTo wrote:So are you saying the parent/parents are at fault?

I suppose I insinuated that, didn't I? I wasn't trying to hang the whole thing on her parents. There's a long list of people involved with it who can shoulder blame: her (for making poor choices), parents, friends, internet creepzorz, shitheads at school, facebook keyboard warriors, etc. No one person is to blame entirely. Could this have been prevented by her parents being more involved and aware of what their daughter was doing? Maybe it would have been less severe, or maybe it would have just been the same. Nobody can ever know. You can bet the farm that I'm going to make every effort to know what my kids are up to, though, and try as hard as I can to instill in them some kind of moral compass. I just hope they follow it most of the time. This shit scares me to death.

Back to my first post on this thread:
" The bullies were absolutly wrong in what they did but she couldn't fight her internet addiction and that was ultimately her ending."

Of course if you take one sentence out and call me an idiot, I understand motive. What I said has seem to come full circle. Who would be the person in a child's life to stop it?!?!?! The parents took the child to a new school but the internet is global.

I agree with you on spanking. Shit doesn't work and the first time I ever thought about doing it I took a step back (and ended getting punked by my daughter).

And now I have no idea what we were talking about. Fuck 1911 on a phone.

I'll leave it at this:

Don't judge a book by its cover. Do not assume a parent is a shitty parent unless there is legitimate reason to believe so. Even if there may be indicators, do not assume. However, if they do something that is clearly wrong, then one does not have to be a parent to accuse that person of doing a poor job raising a child (at least regarding that specific instance).

This story is sad. It's also disheartening to see some of you justifying the actions against her simply because she made a mistake. Should we harass each person who makes a mistake until he kills himself?

What I take from this story is to make sure that we stay connected to our kids and their lives. Be involved and be aware. Monitor their time online, have their passwords, and keep tabs on what's going on. Her parents should have been keeping an eye on these things for her, and pulled the plug when stuff was getting out of hand. Like Kirk said, kids just don't have the capacity to deal with this kind of thing.

So are you saying the parent/parents are at fault? She did jump to many different schools which I'm sure parents must of helped with. As I jump back to my earlier point, the internet is what she seemed to always go back to. Its also what aided her problems in following her. So then it must be the parents fault.

Always cracks me up when I see young teens & preteens with their cellphones which has internet access and the parents seem to have no clue.

I don't read books ever but if Alex Kirk wrote one, I would buy and read it!
