where you whipped/spanked as a kid?

i used to get smaked here and there...but then my parents figured out that it wasnt cool to do...

 

Are you really from Alabama?

 

Mmmhmm.

 

i've seen every race hitting kids in public. it seems to come primarily from having too many kids with no present father figure and not enough money or brains to keep them entertained.

also being raised ghetto or white trash yourself obviously leads to using similar parenting styles yourself, admittedly moreso with the blacks only because they tend to reject any sort of "white" influence in favor of perpetuating their ghettos in an attempt to "keep it real"

 

shit, i got smacked by neighbors and friends parents

 

When you're in Alabama you automatically consider anyone doing something surreptitious 'black'.

 

People must have hated you then, lol.

 

who? me?

 

Couldn't be.

 

You make a very good point.


On to the lynching.

 

That's not true. I don't have any racial afflictions here. I don't give a shit if someone is white, black, green or blue. I could care less. From what I've seen, as far as beating your kids go... in the city that I live in... ( Mobile ), I don't see people beating their kids very much, but the ones that I DO see, happen to be black. And that's just how it is... limited minded fool. Not everyone from Alabama are hicks hangin' off the racial onslaught of the slavery days. Grow up, dumbass.

 

I wrote a folk song about this kid that got lynched in the 80s in Mobile. They named the street sign after him a few years ago that was closest to the tree he was hung from. Pretty sad, actually. I can't believe racism is still around.

 

I have vague memories but can't remember.
Me and my brother were drama queens as kids.
Maybe I've inserted some false memories.

Knocking seven shades of shit out of child is bad parenting, ofcourse.
Lightly chastising, with say a clip around the back of the legs, in a consistent and measured way, is fine.
It does not make you a bad parent to do that.

 

that's shady, couldn't even give him the whole street

 

Well, most of it is gone. Good thing that we've replaced it with the "gangsta" subculture and black on black crime.

That way we can still hate them and the white man ain't responsible no more. Just gonna keep producin' 50 Cent albums.

 

Also people in Alabama take teasing as a deep personal attack and lash out with vitriol.

 

Yeah... they didn't even have to kill him in the first place. He was an accelerated college student and was walking on his way home one night and that was the last walk he ever took. The whole idea behind the KKK just pisses me off. I ono how they can sleep at night.

 

Yeppp. I got the belt. I also got spanked. My sister and brother NEVER HAVE. But my whole childhood was like, crazy with that stuff! My brother and sister watched me and knew better. I dont get punished anymore at all. I just dont. Im quite spoiled and I know it. But I did go through all that stuff.

 

i can't be hated, i'm a cuddle bear

 

Possibly. But for future reference, I don't take the Southern jokes very well. Especially seeing as how I hate living here, but I can't afford to live anywhere else. If I ever win the lottery, I'm moving to Seattle. End of story.
