Parents Today Suck

You see this picture right here? Good old belt on ass. Never hurt nothing or nobody. Sure your ego suffered a bit and your feelings got hurt and if you had any cruel hearted siblings you heard about it for a week or so but generally you got over the sting of the belt rather quickly and you learned not to repeat that same mistake again that hooked up cowhide leather with your ass for a blind date. My asswhoopings were legendary. My dad used to take me to the basement and lock the door and hold one of my arms as we went to work on me with the other in making sure I had no chance for escape. He made sure I left my pride and a trail of tears in that basement and that whatever I did that was foul or would reflect poorly or disrespectfully on the family or the way he raised my sister and I would not be tolerated. Girls learned the lessons through the belt twice as quick as boys as when you consider I took three times as many whoopings as my sister, that number might be lowballing the discrepancy between the two sexes.

Today though? Nothing like that. Kids get punk ass talks and masquerade timeouts as discipline. Let me tell you something, there's nothing you can say with a timeout that you can't say louder and more forcefully with a spanking. You walk up to a frenchman and he probably won't understand anything other than French and it would be foolish to speak Portuguese to him and assume he'll understand you. Likewise, the language of children are asswhoopings and to speak any other language as a parent is derelict in your responsibility to get through to them in a meaningful and tangible fashion.

Which brings me to two disturbing stories breaking today, the first in video format from a recent Dr. Phil episode in which a punk ass kid is running his mother and speaking as an equal to someone you isn't her equal. I won't say anymore, I'll let you watch this.

Shameful. If the mother had been doling out physical punishment more than twice in her life maybe the kid would have respected her gangster.

Or by now you may have learned of the 13 year old girl (pictured to the left) whose put two men behind bars for unknowingly having sex with her whom they believed was a 19 year old divorced woman after they met up with her through the popular Myspace website. Of course Myspace was the vessell for this fuckery where the 22 and 24 year old men were duped into hooking up with the 13 year old. Myspace.
Alisha Dean had told Morris Williams she was 18. Her Myspace (now edited and private) said she was 19 and divorced. But after having sex with Alisha, Williams got worried. Things she said and did tipped him off, and he went to see Jerry Dean, who told Williams that yeah, his daughter was only 13. Then Jerry Dean called the police to press charges. Alisha’s public Myspace is now down, but it wasn’t, even when the case went to court yesterday. The suggestive material was enough to make grown women blush. A couple of her videos show the minor child shaking her womanly booty like she’s working the pole. It’s totally believable to me that young men might not realize the girl’s age if she lied about it.

When Morris Williams found out Alisha Dean was not 22, but 13, he immediately went to Dean’s father and told him. Dean’s father wanted Morris behind bars, just like Darwin Mills, who Alisha pulled the same stunt on in January 2007. Williams is now serving a year in jail. Mills, 5 years in Jail. Dean’s My Space Page now says she is 16, three years older than she really is.


With all the stories you hear about Myspace and all the foul shit that goes on the company ought to raise the age of registering to 18 so that whatever goes down via Myspace at least everybody's grown and assumes responsibility.

This is just a bad day for parenting.
