When I were a lad you'd only whine about a clip round the ear if it was undeserved, and even then you'd think twice, for fear of getting another one.Comment

It is a stupid attitude to give one sector of society the right to beat another sector based purely on age and not on what is right and wrong.
Maybe it is because people like NF are so limp that they need to feel manly by beating on children?Comment

I got a clip around the ear from a teacher when I messed around once. I deserved it and it had the desired effect.
I gave a kid around the cuff around the ear when he and his mates were basically having a game of chase around a packed shop on a Saturday morning years ago. It pissed me and a number of other people off, and I couldn't have given a crap about the consequences. It stopped their game and got me a round of applause from the other customers.
If my kid was showing an equal amount of disrespect to other people, he's only got himself to blame if he gets a smack too.
If you think that is ok to hit kids like that then you a spineless moronic twunt.Comment

Most folk these days are too scared to talk the parents of a mis-behaving child for fear of a broken nose. Even if the parent doesn't look the fighting type, you're still likely to be subjected to some rant about "how I raise my kids is my business"."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."Comment

contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties
at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers."
