MooPig Parenting Trap Department :: "What I Say..."
Retrieved articles by Pat Darnell | Dec 28, 2013 | Bryan TX
[Picture LINK] Pelletier was taken to Boston Children’s Hospital when she got the flu in February. Her parents said doctors at the hospital accused them of medical child abuse – something they vehemently oppose.
The 7 Worst Things You Can Say To Your Child: "Parenting can be so damn stressful. Kids push boundaries and buttons, and it’s a parent’s job to stay calm and steady in the face of it all. But most of us don’t perform this job with absolute perfection. We sometimes and say things to our kids we wish we could stuff back inside our mouths. I’m sure most of us have some cringe-worthy moments to mull over and make up for" (REBECCA ODES | June 30th, 2011. LINK) ..."
Kind-patience, long-suffering, friendly-courtesy, calm-serenity, soft-skills, might not be part of a person's vocabulary before he or she becomes a parent.
The conditioning one receives from perilous parenting supplants all previous learned curricula. One cannot escape a child's adolescence, and the parent usually ends up unable to forgive oneself for all the battles that came out of that "special" time. Action speaks louder than words; at least that is what we thought. Our words are remembered, and remembered, and repeated, for generations.
This linked article gives us at least seven examples of things we say as we resort to incivility in our conversations with our children:
- "If you don't stop that I'm going to leave you here"
- "Why can't you be more like your sister or brother?"
- "You're the reason we got divorced."
- "Because I said so, that's why."
- "Here, let me do that for you."
- "You should be ashamed of yourself."
- "We never wanted you anyway."

MooPig Parenting Department :: "Parenting in Today's World"

Sometimes MooPig Opinion and Editorial Department runs across this "SuchandSuchBlog.com is no longer available. The authors have deleted this blog."
"We know the time is coming when Blogging will be a liability," says Grappler Dorns, editor of Op/Ed. "We can only hope that our attempt to provide our children with a cross section of the world at the turn of the century will survive."
But that is not all there is to it. You see, Timmy, there is a subculture of oblivion underneath all of this, and most everything you put on the Internet is going to go down with the end of Mother Earth in a few billion years. Yes, our blogs, and quips, and twitters, and Reddits will all go into the massive black hole of destiny, and survive.
So will our attempts at parenting. Since we all decided to be immortal and pass on our genetic codes to our unsuspecting bairn, we will genetically be included in the over all scheme of perpetuity. Do you feel better now? I didn't think so. In fact it might make you more anxious.
We take this segue moment to look into a recent book that took a decade to write, and will take us a decade to read.
All too late. "After six our nest is almost empty," laments one father to his wife.
Andrew Solomon's book about parenting abnormal children, "Far from the Tree."
" ... Drawing on forty thousand pages of interview transcripts with more than three hundred families, Solomon mines the eloquence of ordinary people facing extreme challenges.
" ... Many families grow closer through caring for a challenging child; most discover supportive communities of others similarly affected; some are inspired to become advocates and activists, celebrating the very conditions they once feared. Woven into their courageous and affirming stories is Solomon’s journey to accepting his own identity, which culminated in his midlife decision, influenced by this research, to become a parent. ..."Watch out, Andrew, it will be your test of fire!
Susan Klebold's Story - Business Insider: " ... After such tragedies, people struggle to contemplate why a young person could do something so horrific. In The New York Times, Solomon wrote about interviewing the Klebolds a number of times over eight years to try to find some answers. Here's what he wrote:
" ... I began convinced that if I dug deeply enough into their character, I would understand why Columbine happened — that I would recognize damage in their household that spilled over into catastrophe. Instead, I came to view the Klebolds not only as inculpable, but as admirable, moral, intelligent and kind people whom I would gladly have had as parents myself.It's impossible not to feel for Susan Klebold when reading her first-hand account of raising a mass murderer, which O Magazine published in 2009." (Erin Fuchs. Jan. 4, 2013, 4:54 PM. HERE) ... "

Moopig's "Who Would Win in a Bar Fight #5"
“Really poor children in really poor neighborhoods have no habits of working and have nobody around them who works, so they literally have no habit of showing up on Monday,” Gingrich said.
“They have no habit of staying all day. They have no habit of ‘I do this and you give me cash’ unless it’s illegal.”

Procrastinate... Hell No! Pro-Activate with Vehemence

Missing and exploited children is a possibility we have difficulty facing as parents. by Pat Darnell
School Pictures have arrived here in Nirvana, Utopia - where women are strong, men are good-looking, and the children are all above average. Herein, it turns out, I sense a passe spirit of putting-off-till-later. Many are procrastinating a simple task; doing simple secondary research in the area of protection of our children's' rights to not be abducted against our collective wills.
Therefore, I submit a starting point for any procrastinating reader of this today.
Our precious bairn at any moment can be swept up into a line of bolixed bullshixta a mile long, and go missing. God forbid! And my prayer is that these possibilities are erased and do not apply today or for eternity... for any child. But --
Hey! Parents -- realize this: it is too late when the event is upon us. The schools send out pictures like the one above, and it is a good source of information for any future or latent "missing and exploited children."
Compliments of our children's' schools in partnership with National Center for Missing and Exploited children, your child's image is on file with parents' permissions.
Try http://www.smilesafekids.com/ for instance website set up for explicit use for M or E children. Claims from the http://www.4child.com/ child I.D. program are similar to tactics for keeping track of our kids:
Features: Look!! FREE Stuff!
* All I.D.’s are credit card size and made of durable hard
plastic.
* No permanent databasing of child’s information. All
pictures, fingerprints and information are completely
DELETED after 90 days to protect the family’s confidentiality.
* CHIP only uses state-of-the-art digital technology to
insure the highest quality products possible.
* All participating students are photographed, fingerprinted,
weighed & measured for complete accuracy.
* Parent Option Program - Only those parents who
“authorize” permission for their child to participate.
* FREE school security & badge issuance software with
photo capture capabilities and the ability to database all
visitors on campus. FREE digital camera also available.
* FREE child safety educational materials and poster for
each classroom.
* FREE custom Staff Badges & Lanyards with photo,
name, title and expiration date. http://www.4childid.com/pdf/chip_vs_lifetouch.pdf
We already bought the pictures, so why not be a part of a solution that eases turmoil in the wake of a lost child? Not only children -- Hey, I lost my Aunt in LA, she was a victim of Alzheimer's, but her absence caused alarm across the US. My family stretches from coast to coast, OC to Peachtree Georgia... by the time she was found, a lot of property damage was done, and our understanding of "being lost" was changed forever.
Family members who get "out-of-pocket" is not: "Hey, I'll get to that lat
er." Lesson to learn: a little backtrack would have been nice to have!
How to proceed is to ask if our child should or should not be in a database; If so, well shouldn't that be one database that tries to protect identity? Missing children and missing family members is Chaos!
Like I said at the beginning: you bring any citizen from any foreign country and place them in the USA and he/she/it is free, unlike all the rest of the world. Freedom like George Wallace screams from his torture block!!!!
-- But take any American to the any foreign land and all kinds of exploitation "Sh&** Happens!"
I don't have pat answers to enormous quizzical questions posed here, yet I know parents procrastinate (many parents) and that is enough to warrant a nationwide attempt to Pro-activate our efforts to find lost children, 24/7.
This is a reciprocal cause, that can be provided for all levels of Socio-economic families in our nation, for each other in our time. Let me tie this together for you, unless you are not yet activated in motivated ambulation...
Remember, our beloved Internet never sleeps; and we with our intimate National freedom to toil and play any where in our wonderful country, for our birth-right, must take responsibility for fighting the good fight. Utilize your sense of good will and free tool for all in this pursuit to wipe out missing and exploited children in our time. I suggest strongly your vehement pro-activity in this matter.
Me-after-thinks:
One -- the only show on TV that I've noticed besides http://www.amw.com/ America Fights Back: America's Most Wanted is "Without a Trace" seen of late that uses air time to regard missing persons
Two -- Hey Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, why don't you donate some air time to missing and lost, or exploited children and elderly, MIA and other related... you are blind to exploiting such tragic things? Oh, no I don't think so. You exploit the flies on GWB's brow, and all the barfing larvae thereabouts... I put you both on report to try put back something that you take from society wasting time rifling sick politicians and their wives!!! They will always be lost.
Three-- WORD for the day: PRO-ACTIVATE, eh? Mr. Colbert? and --
SETS -- Simple Eloquent Traditional Solution "Bringing the split-aparts back two at a time: putting the world back together."
