vipersniper reacted to KingStinger! in If You Were Born In The 60s, 70s, or 80s, You Have to Watch This. WOW.
This is the belief of most these days BUT i strongly disagree with it.. (no offence of course)
Back in the 70's & 80's i remember being at a parent teacher interview and i recall the words of my Mom to the teacher quite clearly...She said to my teacher: "if he needs it, give it to him" (meaning the strap)
Im still alive today to tell about it and no long or short term damage was done.. Actually I think it taught me respect. Any one older than me to this day I still address them as SIR or Ma'am and respect my elders. When i was a kid, if i didnt reply to an adult with a YES SIR or a NO sir and just a yes or a no, well lets just say i couldnt sit for a week after that. But that only happened once or twice and the hint was passed on real quick. Absolutely nothing wrong with an up bringing like that and I wish it was still like that.. My kids are in there late teens now and i can say I never raised them with an angry hand but with an educating hand. And it was actually very rare that I ever had to raise a hand to them because they learned to respect.. They are respectful of there elders and I am proud of the young ladies they have become. They actually shine in front of todays disrespectful teens..

Yes Sammy, for not saying sir. Respect for your elders especially among boys was the most important rule a dad could teach their kids in the world I grew up in. My dad wasn't overly strict and was always fair, but had I ever mouthed off to my parents of one of his friends he would have layed me out flat with a single punch, so needless to say I always treated my elders with great respect, and if I was ever out of line they were more than welcome to give me an attitude adjustment with my parents blessing. But you have to remember the generation our parents came from. Most lived through the depression, and their peers were men who fought and survived WWII, Korea and Viet Nam. Even as a kid I watched these "old men" just beat the holy shit out of much younger men who figured they were easy to fuck with. A man who has fought in battle and know what it's like to kill people is not a person you want to act like a smart ass with or be disrespectful to.
The women of that generation were just as tough when they had to be. My own grandmother was walking home from work one night when some punk decided to steal her purse. Not only did he not get the purse, she beat the living Hell out of him then sat on his motionless carcass until the police arrived.
So yeah Sammy, respect for ones elders is the first lesson I taught my kids, and as far as I'm concerned they learned it well.

I'm glad dogs are so cute, otherwise I'd fucking kill my 7 month old yellow lab. She got bored while I was playing COD2 this morning and went out of my sight to chew a hole through a wall.
