Yeah, the difference is though, is it's shown that a child can constantly talk back on television, and get the last word..and make there parents feel bad....and they see that as having nothing but good consequences....where as, violence, and things of that nature, always have the possibility of extreme negative consequence...so a child sees that and says hey, i don't know if that's wrong..but i don't want that to happen to me...where as when it comes to talking back, and trying to make your parent feel bad...kids see that and say hey, thats acceptable, i'm going to do that because it virtually has no negative consequence


even the most wholesome of shows portray this...so i think it's very important you stress that even those shows are fantasy, and thats not how shit is gonna work

kids think they OG's

Mimesis....i wasn't blaming it soley on white people..or any race...i'm sorry, i should have said..."Trash" instead of white trash.
I was no where close to turning this into race, race is irrelevant...
That was just an example i pointed out, for no specific reason.
I'm not upse for you trippin though...it's my fault...i apologize

You just owned yourself by changing your name the same night. Especially if you've had this name longer than he's had it (10 yrs+). LOL. SOOOOO owned. word.

growin up i watched tv n shit, n neither tv or my parents really made me who i am n shit, i made my own decicions scence i wuz little.

n tha problem wif kids iznt tv at all, thats just fucking stupid. its tha parents, they need 2 punish tha kid, or they'll have no reason 2 not do sumthin. wen i wuz growin up i learned not 2 piss my parents off, if i interupted them or talked back, i got slapped/hit in tha face. ive had my dad lift me outta my chair by my throat wile he yelled at me, telling me how no matter wut i do i always fuck it up, n that i'll never do anythang right n shit like that. wen i wuz 5 i remember he wuz mad at me cuz i didnt wanna take these eye drops i had, so he punched a hole thru tha wall a couple inches frum my face wen i wuz layin in bed. n they screamed n yelled at me n shit always. thats tha reason y i wouldnt do shit if i thought there wuz a good chance of gittin caught. they treated me like shit growin up, ive hated my moms scence i wuz 7, wif a fucking passion, i fucking hate her. n i dont feel comfortable around my dad, if we're in tha car alone, could b fo an hour, we wont talk once tha whole time. so i think parents DO gotta punish theyre kids n shit, but they gotta b careful 2 not b TOO hard on them. werd

The bible says every generation grows wickeder and wiser. From a logistical standpoint, kids are getting "worse and worse" because they aren't being required to own up to their actions. Anyone here approaching 25 or older was raised differently from people who are 16 or younger. I know my mother used to force me to do math problems and read books even during vacation. How many parents take the time to make sure kids do their normal school work, let alone require them to go above and beyond? That's the difference. Kids today don't see the relevance of respecting those who came before them. It explains how some arrogant kid could disparage one of the greats of hip hop and then have the nerve to call himself a rapper.

eh ehh...The funny thing is, we'll be having this discussion in another 10-15 years about the next generation.

If I had a kid, and he turned out like most of the kids I went to high school with, I'd beat his ass. But I don't have a kid, so I'm all good.

you just proved every single thing I've said in this thread....

you don't realize it..but it's true
