I am a teacher in the inner city with all races of children. I can tell you for a fact that you are a racist and that this will reflect on your child in years to come. Facts from my life:
a child (not white) gets caught stealing when on a field trip. When he/she is told that is wrong by the teaching staff, the child responds, "Mom says it's okay as long as we steal enough for everyone in the family."
a child (not white) sneaks into the nurses office and steals over three hundred dollars out of the purse. The child blatently goes to the cook and asks for change for a one hundred dollar bill. The parents are called in............the child is suspended. The parents state the child hasn't got the money. They go on a vacation and buy all new things during spring vacation with the money that was stolen. How do we know? The child confessed to police after the vacation and said the parents said it was okay.
a child (not white) picks up a brick and hits a kid in the face with it because they didn't like the way that student looked at him/her......the parent's only response was....what punishment did the other child get..............the child went to the hospital with a concussin and had stitches
a child (not white) drove by a house, shot a teen ager, all because he lost a basketball game. Then proceeded to go to the funeral, where his parents were, walked up to the casket, took a picture of the boy lying dead in the casket, turned around looked at the grieving family, and laughed.
His parents did nothing.
a child (not white) was hungry and hadn't been fed. He reached on the counter for a peanut...one lousy peanut, and the parent took a rolling pin and broke his hand.
a child (not white) went out on the playground with a pair of scissors, purposefully cut a girl's hair off while holding her down.............when the parent was called..........they made excuses and said that their child would never do that. When asked how the parent could explain that the scissors had been taken out underneath the hat of the youngster so that teachers couldn't see it.........the response was the child just must have forgot that the scissors were there..........and was probably just swinging the scissors...and the hair got in the way.
It's not the color of the skin..........it's the content of the character and the commitment and consistency in the child's life.

White parents don't want social services called on them. And that's what will happen if they physically discipline their children anymore. Most laws make it so it's impossible to raise your own children. As for the reason they do drugs is because our parents either came up from poverty and give us everything we want because they had nothing growing up, or because they were already rich and don't care enough about their kids to watch what they're doing. So if you've got everything you want without having to work for it, the next logical step is to spend your money on something while trying to find yourself. You get bored and feel there's nothing to live for. Until you find drugs, and they make you feel good so you do that, because why not? You'll never have to work again in your life, and it's not like you're throwing your money away.
The end of my rant.

Being a white parent, we get tired of the kids telling us if we hit or spank them they will report us to the Children's Aid Society. Haven't you also noticed they do not discipline children in schools anymore either. The strap has been abolished. Talking and reasoning doesn't do any good as they know everything at 16. And I don't think it's just white parents.

You know, in some tribes in Africa, the idea of hitting a child, someone who is physically and mentally more vulnerable then you, in unthinkable. The problem is people don't know how to properly discipline their children and are left helpless.
My dad, white, was canned as a child when he did wrong, but understands that people didn't know better because back then we had very little understanding of human psychology. Children who are raised in violent homes are more prone to become violent themselves. My dad's not but he is just very understanding.
However, not doing anything is just as bad. Children need to learn to emphasize with other people and that can be done by getting down on your knees and talking to them on their eye level to get them to understand their wrongs. It really works.

Got that right. Honey, cops put a white person in jail who'd slap, or put mark on their kid, I lived it. I don't know about other cultures, but suspect its not the case. My kids lorded that over me, and 2of 3 were a hand ful. Social workers even show the kids how to live on the streets. Its an upside down situation. Now there berating grand parents, like Vergie Arthur who is the victum of her addict daughter trying to save her grand kids, Jesus come back soon!

They aren't afraid to discipline them. My parents discipline me, if i do something I'm not suppose to. But some people do drugs, cut, and runaway its not just white people. Some families have problems at home and it leads to those things. Its not just white people and its not just because of lack of punishment.

I don't necessarily think it's a "white" issue. Now a days people are scared to discipline because of the government and all there rules. I always told my daughter (spanked)...you think it is an issue...report me...then you will go to foster care (horror stories)...then you won't complain.
Others think it will scar their children. I was spanked and that is the last thing that is a bad memory of my childhood.

Scared to discipline kids??? NO WAY - we just do not advertise to our friends and neighbors.... we keep our dirty laundry right here inside the house where it belongs.... and by the way, ALL kids can and do the things you listed. Go check out the statistics by race THEN tell me white people are not disciplining the kids......

I don't think it's only white parents. It depends on different parents. For insance, if your parents were to teach you well then of course you'll pass it onto your kids. But if you don't learn anything from your parents, of course your kids will be screwed. I don't know why you only said white parents though, because I've seen many children who are immature and their parents are different races.
