we cant do that today i get this all the time at work....... kids throwing tantrums with parents,........ i will tell you why thigns have changed........ it is because of teh Social services......... a customer in walmart can call social services on a parent who spanked their child in teh store and be given the same credibility as a person that knows the child, the family, the situation, and the circumstances,.... when in reality,...... they dont.......
Im not saying social services isnt a good thing, because it is.... i myself have called several times on suspected abused chidlren, but they need to reevaluate the way that they screen the people that call..... someone who doesnt know the family should not be given the exact same credibility as a teacher or family member......... in short...... people CAN NOT disciplin their kids anymore for fear of getting a child abuse mark on their record (and those are PERMANANT BY THE WAY)..... i will be a teacher here soon, and hwo would that look if i had kids and someone called the child abuse hotline, making a ding on my record? i probably wouldnt get a job..... |
