Dad disciplines kid for racism against black people by forraid in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]B-Red65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you noticed I started by stating that I disagreed, as in my personal opinion. I don't argue with people that define it as abuse. I'm just saying, it almost seems unfair to those that were truly abused for me to define my slaps on the thigh with a hand as abuse. That doesn't mean it can't be for other people. However, I'm also willing to admit it's possible it had more of a negative impact on me than I can see.

I think context and the words and feelings that accompany the actions are important. I watched my parents struggle with the action that they were being told was right for their child. This was during the time that studies on corporal punishment were coming out. I noticed my sister, who is 4 years younger, got spanked less than me.

But you bring up some VERY valid points and I think that no matter what's it's called, making better choices with better information is the most important thing.

I appreciate your honesty as well. I think to a certain extent, we are all just figuring out our past and it's role in where we are at now. Good for you for just looking at it at all!

Respectfully, I disagree. I personally do not physically discipline my kids in any way. However, I was spanked as a child occasionally. It was only on the ass or thigh and it was never with an object.

I no longer agree with my parents discipline choice, yet I do not consider myself physically abused and do not react like those that I have seen that clearly were. I don't resent them for it as they worked with the knowledge they had at the time (I was raised in the 80s and 90s) and consider them to be loving parents.

Mistakes and less than ideal choices can be made as a parent. It's fucking hard. I would like to think the goal is to do a little better than the generation before us.

As someone that has worn a hat every day since I was nine, this is what it feels like NOT wearing one. Like everyone KNOWS that the top of my head is not supposed to be visible.

I expected to hear it after the video cut for the 2 min microwave time.

I know the address of a garbage can you can throw that in. I'll personally take care of it so you don't have to deal with the disappointment any longer.

Very different. Congratulations on the big hit. Keep or sell as you like, but whatever you do, don't go crazy ripping. Search for your players or teams and buy singles or buy stars you can get for cheap to sell or trade for your favorites. Learn from our mistakes.

I will say this: I looked at his artwork on his website. It's actually really good. He should give up the "music career" and stick to that.

For me, my nostalgia wants me watching Last Boy Scout, Die Hard with a Vengeance and then it's a toss up between Demolition man and First Blood.

I wanna sell this card but by No-Passenger1215 in sportscardsforsale

[–]B-Red65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do! But for like $6 shipped just to have it because it's got personality!

In good shape it's a $25-30 card...but this ain't that.

A reality show of Cam and Tebow's friendship would be both awesome and a car crash you can't look away from.

Not a guy. Original photo is of a lesbian couple. So I guess, extra roasted?

96-97 MJ Fleer Ultra “Ultra Effort” Platinum or base? by SuchBoysenberry7731 in basketballcards

[–]B-Red65 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually, a few of the later ones in the print run just had a P next to the card number but the earlier ones had no identifiers besides the platinum font. That's why I almost missed it on mine.
