More bad kids loose their 360!!

Ha!! My sister called and said she took back the 360 she got them for X-Mas. The oldest one (16) was being a total ass to her for a week, and today was it. She called his bluff and took the system back.

On a positive note: I get the games they had !!

lmao and damn i thought it was bad enough when i was a kid when i got grounded from playing videogames. Taking the whole thing back is a new level that makes me glad im grown now and cant WAIT to torture my own kids when PSWHATEVER is the latest and greatest...

Classic!

Hope he learns to appreciate what he has because he can lose it at any time. Even I knew that at he age of 16.

Good for your sister, I love hearing stories about parents who aren't afraid to be tough when tough is needed.


When I have kids I will not be a go to your room (and play nintendo, surf the net, IM your friends) type of parent.

Now she should get an empty 360 box and sit it on the dining room table, so when they come home from school they see the box and get all happy and excited, then they pick it up and it all sinks in. Shw should do this periodically to prolong the suffering.

And she's gotta smile when they come in the door so they think she was just messing with them the whole time. Then the kid picks it up, and oh, an empty box...That'd be great...

I would have got my ass handed to me if I treated my parents even remotely disrespectful. I got grounded fro giving my parents the wrong look.

I was grounded for 3 months because I was failing calculus in high school. It sucked, but looking back it made me realize that education was more important than anything at that period in my life.

Cheers to parents who treat their bratty kids like they deserve to be treated. Kids don't deserve anything. I had to work for everything my parents bought me. "What? You want $2? Go mow the lawn?"

Yeah, no doubt. If you're kids are behaving that badly when their teenagers, you didn't work hard enough when they were little. It's a bit late to whip them into shape in the late teens.

oh man. getting my ass beat was something I hated. But I sure did learn from it.

No shit. By the time I was 12 I had the instinctive resonse to cover my ass or duck when I got in trouble with my parents in close proximity.

hah ^ hilarious post above, cover your ass, because a swift kick to it was coming. Haha...

lol my dad layed Oak floors in his homes he built, and always if i raised my voice or back talked, he would tell my mother to go get him a 2 foot piece of oak.. man oh man would i start crying, he didnt even have to hit me lol, i KNEW the pain before it came.

and when your like 12, you CAN NEVER OUTRUN YOUR DAD, NEVER, running makes it sooo much worse too


talk about straightening your kids act out. Thats how parents should still take care of there children.

Pain is an ever lasting memory, how do you think they get horses to do crazy tricks?

PLEASE, I grew up with parents who believed in beating us whenever we did something wrong, then they changed their minds halfway through my childhood and decided grounding was the way to go.

You must have forgotten your priorities when you were a kid, because "grounded from everything" sucked MUCH worse than any amount of beating.

Seriously, my parents had a policy - if I came home with a 'C' on my report card, I was grounded from EVERYTHING (TV, games, friends, EVERYTHING) until the next semester's report card came out and showed an improvement.

Needless to say, I only ever got a single 'C'.

(Actually, now that I think about it - c'mon, that's true of ADULTS, too! "The things you own, own you" and all that? It's true!)

I got in trouble once when I was 16... My mom got smart and stole my effing keyboard and mouse... The rebel I was... I pulled out a spare mouse to bad I didn't have a keyboard or I would have kept on truckin' until she beat me with a belt *lawl*. My mom was a great parent and I wouldn't ask for another. She let me play the games I wanted but mostly after I talked to her about the M games and what they were. when I hit 14/15, it didn't matter anymore and I was playing what I wanted to mostly Rogue-Spear at those days.

QFT I am only 18 I used to hate getting ass whippings but I am glad I did. I see kids now that hit there parents when they don't like something they are told to do. DAMN I would have gotten my ass beaten so hard damn it still makes me cringe.

This isn't the first time all their stuff was taken away. The dad took the Gamecube, PS2, Gameboys and X-Box and donated them.

My dad took my NES/Genisis for a freakin' year when I had bad grades one quarter.

My sister is a single parent now, so she doesn't give them any slack in the dicipline department. The oldest one is the main problem, the middle one is more subtle in how he pisses off the older one.

But they don't have a 360, and I think that's funny . Serves them right.

--------------------------

Ok, I got the ass-wippings to beat (no pun intended) ass ass-wippings: I cut school (To play FF3 and get some lovin') and was chilling at home playing games waiting for my GF to come over. Well, this was before Caller-ID. My mom called home (I found out later that she heard my little sister mention that I was in the tree trying to hide) to see if I was there. I picked it up thinking it was my GF. All my mom said was "You better be at that school before I get there.".

I jogged/ran seven miles to get to school. The teacher said go to the office and wait for my mom. 10 minutes later my mom is walkinig across the courtyard and she looks PISSED. She opens the door and like some perfume'd, dress-wearing ninja she unleashes the Hundred-Hand Slap on my face. It felt like 30 blows landed before I could react. She was upset like I had never seen before, and she was crying a little. Then she said "Don't skip school again or it will be worse the next time. And I told your dad."

So my dad comes home and says "I get two damn phone calls at work today. One from your little brothers teacher, and one from your principal.". My dad was pissed, he couldn't finish a thought. Then he went in the room and I heard the jingle sound of the belt.

My dad got home from work around 6pm those days. He pretty much whopped our asses for about 3 and a half hours that night. Of course taking breaks in between to rest his arms.

The next day he gave us one more and made us do yard work.

I was about 13 at the time. Never cut school again.

Kids got it easy now-a-days. A lot of the younger parents are too buddy-buddy.

I think that whuppins, as we called them in my house were effective until a certain age, I didn't need more than about 3 through the adolescent years to learn my lesson, but I was by and large a "good kid" anyway. Once I became aware that my parents loved me more than life itself, their disappoinment in my actions was more than enough to make me think my actions through.

My dad let me watch certain R rated movies when I was around 12-13. The last one I watched until 14 was Caddyshack. He heard me mutter 'shit' just once after that movie, and told me if I wasn't mature enough to handle language, then I wasn't going to watch movies that contained it. They banned me from the room anytime ANYTHING with language was on and I learned to watch my mouth.

In comparison, the only thing that would have stopped my younger brother from screwing up would have been a bullet. That kid was a terror until about 2 years ago. He's 22 now. He just can''t NOT screw up. No matter what they did.

Good parenting goes a long way, but sometimes the kid is just shit. Even though they are both loved now, I pray my kid is either like me or my wife, and not like my bro or her younger sis.

The way some of you guys are talking, it seems your daddies did far more to your asses than whip them. Get some serious help, people.

Wrong... Get your head out of the gutter.

It's called discipline assmunch. Not pedofilic incest.

My ass barely got any attention at all from my father. I got the head thump, you know the middle finger tensed up on the thumb with the quick release to the back of the skull? That sucked, the man has hands like a damn bear.

The only other time I can recall anything worse than that was when I was being carried down the hall to my room and he bumped my head on the door frame accidentally which instantly ended the punishment because he felt like an asshole, so that actually worked out for me.

My mom whipped my ass a couple times with a switch. That shit hurts, and we always had to pick the switch. Anybody here ever had that happen? The go and get a tree limb so I can whip your rotten ass with it? Thanks to her great grandma for that, the evil woman.

shit belt isnt oldschool....im 14 and i remember the belt all to well.............but it was more of the ultimate punishment....it came right after getting bitchslaped and a handmark on my face....usually i wouldnt push after that but i had my moments

My Dad had this paddle.....it looked like a giant ping pong paddle with holes about the size of a nickle scattered all over. I didnt have much in the way of precious toys to take away.......so out came the paddle.....when it made contact it would suck the body part into the small holes.....the pain was like being on fire.....

My brother burnt it the day he left for college.

I use a belt every once in a while now......it makes me cry after I use it.....my kids are basically good, I usually ground them without their electronics instead of hitting them....I think it hurts me more....

My mother had a paddle and my father used his belt. My mom still has the paddle on the wall in the kitchen as an ugly reminder. It's broken on one side (used too many times).

I firmly believe in disciplinary hitting children. Kids today lack dicsipline. Parents are afraid to smack their kid when they get out of line.

Last time I was hit with my father's belt was when I was 16 (I'm 28 now). I did something when I was 17 and he went to use the belt on me but well, by that time I was a lot bigger than him so he changed his mind. I feel that being smacked by my parents taught me a valuable lesson in life. I've never boken a law because I don't want to deal with the consequences. I think crime is going to skyrocket when all these little kids get older because they've gotten away with so much in their youth.

In my experience with my neice and nephew (since I don't ahve children of my own) sending them to their room, yelling at them has little to no effect on them, in fact, they think it's a joke when my sister yells at them. That's when I step in. I don't hit them because they arent' my kids but what I do is even better.

"Oh, so you hit your sister? Good, now go stand in the corner. Put your hands in your pockets, stand on one leg and don't move. Don't look around, don't talk to anyone. You can stand there all damn day for all I care until you learn the error of your ways."

my parents never took away our game systems, they were never in our rooms, as for the belt, boy the memerys *sound of belt leaving pants*, *sound of kids bolting* we always got the chance to run, we couldnt leave th house and they always found us...

worst beating ever, my mom had mecornored, went to make contact with the belt, i jumped back and yelled "HAHAHAHA MISSED ME!" and took off running my brother says what happened next went like this "he ran into the family room, and jumped in to the storage unit under our couch(it was an old hide a bed we has jsut gutted it) mom came on, looked around, went to the couch, picked it up with one had and went to town"

needlessto say, i never did that again, figured it was easyer to take the whipping while they were jsut kinda pissed, then to takeone afteri managedto really piss then off

My parents never used a belt on me. I kinda wished they had, it was always metal hangers, brooms, and a real horse whip. (I really don't know where they got that from) My GF's little cousin has an Ipod, PSP, GameCube, and everything else a kid would want and when he was bad, his Dad would just yell at him, but he would just ignore it. Taking away his stuff would be adequate punishment, but his parents just don't enforce it. Kids these days just don't get the discipline they need.

This subject is more suited for GenMay. You guys want to talk about getting beat, take it over there.
