Preteen Sisters Accused in Kidnapping
In Enid, oklahoma, 2 young girls 10 and 12 took a 1 yr old baby out of a neighbors house while the mother slept. They left a randsom note saying :
';If you want to see your son again then you won't call police and report him missing and you will leave $200,000 on the sofa tonight and we will return your son back safe,'; the note read, according to police.
The note was signed, ';the kidnappers.';
The kids were arrested and taken to a community intervention center for children.
Next headline was: Girl, 11, Charged With DUI After Chase
ORANGE BEACH, Ala. - Police who chased a car for miles along a highway at speeds up to 100 mph said the driver was drunk, hardly a rarity in this resort town. But there was more: When they looked inside the flipped vehicle with guns drawn, they found an 11-year-old girl at the wheel.
Cops-her blood alcohol lvl was above 2.0(the legal limit for minors)How do we make parents do a better job parenting?
Well, the problem is, you can't make someone do anything. What you can do is make help more readily available. For example, lots of times I read people advising that someone should take parenting classes. Great advice, but if that was something that I needed or wanted, I would have no idea where to go to get that. If ob/gyns, pediatricians, and the schools could work more to get good information out there, maybe parents who were completely clueless, (and who isn't somedays) would be better equipped to do what they need to do.
Of course, this will not help those that are not clueless, but careless. As much as we hate to admit it, there are some parents who really don't want to do anything with their kids. They're just counting the days until their kids are 18 and they can kick them out of the house.How do we make parents do a better job parenting?
thank god u posted this i saw the same headlines and thought oh my god what kind of world do we live in. Yes i agree that those girls thar kidnapped the baby saw it on tv. this means that parents/gaurdians need to step in and watch there children. Okay now about the drunk driving ELEVEN year old girl i was like WTF.....these ppl are so messed up!!
i was sickened from hearing all this lets just hope no one got hurt during all these events.....
It would help to require anyone planning on having kids to take a class and have to pass a test. Why is it so difficult to get a driver's license or passport in this country, but having kids requires absolutely nothing. We should make it illegal to give birth without a passing grade.
It's too late. The pendulum has swung too far as it often does. The baby boomers and early gen-x'ers who grew up respecting authority and fearing the punishment a bad report card brings have decided that weak to no parenting is the way to raise kids.
Though I didn't like getting' my butt whipped I do think there is need for discipline. Unfortunately for my kids my wife is as passive a parent as there ever was and for the sake of my kids having two parents we ultimately parent her way which is very weak.
These generations who also make up the boards of education have taken their passive approach to the school system and have taken discipline out of the school and replaced it with political correctness, bureaucracy and red tape.
The parents of these children most likely had little discipline and control over then from the beggining. I have said it a hundred times on here, it is not our jobs as parents to be our childs best friend, it is our job to be their leader, and guide them to teach them right a wrong. Then when they become adults they will want to be our friends, because they have respect for us for having some responsibility. My uncle tried the friend method with his three children, after him and his wife got a devorce, telling my father that he could trust his 15 year old daughter to stay out all hours of the night, because she told him everything. Now his 17 year old daughter has been in jail twice, stollen 3 cars, done cocaine, smoke weed, cigarettes, and gotten more drunk than I think most 21 year olds do on their 21st birthday. She also has dropped out of school and has a 4 month old baby. His younger son has been to jail for arsen and sells weed for a living, and his youngest daughter is usually left at home to babysit her older siblings while her dad is dating. So it goes beyond just discipline, all you really have to do is pay attention to your children. If they seem intoxicated do something. Don't allow them to stay out for days at a time. Insure they are going to school and staying there. Children are supposed to have restrictions. For their safety, and our sanity. So yes, it is the parents fault in the end for these three girls you have mentioned, because you have to ask, where was their parent?
they blamed the James Bulger murder on tv/videos and then on their parents - some kids are just bad and messed up
maybe it is all down to bad parenting but i remember seeing stuff on tv and i never felt the need to copy it
