Lesson for adults and children

I thought long and hard about posting this youtube video here in the Little House Forum. I decided it needs to be seen even though there is cussing in it. We are raising a generation of kids with no respect for what others do for them in trying to raise them as responsible adults. The internet is turning tweens and teens into monsters. The dad in this video has had enough. Please watch the entire video and show it to everyone you know. This man just may have started a revolution.
Note that the dad does not cuss, he is quoting from his 15 year old daughter's facebook page.

I agree with everything you said...

Thanks for posting that.

Tough Love is hard....but necessary.....if there were more parents like him out there, the world wouldn't be filled with such disrespectful kids......KUDOS to him!

I just watched the whole thing. Didn't realize there was gunplay. I understand the guy's point, but he does scare me a little.

Exactly. That was definitely tough love! I have no doubt that he sent that message clearer to his daughter than anything else could have!

Least that father is teaching his kids how things should be

Cracks me up. When she wrote that on facebook. She has hard life. Wow, she doesn't know what hard life is. She can't do simple chores. wipe the counter, making her bed sweep the kitchen floor, etc... To me, she's the kind of teenager who won't help her parents & step mom if they ever bed ridden. Love it, when he shot her laptop. I'm sure, she complain to her friends.

Teenager girl: my dad shot laptop. my life is over. I have no more facebook, I can't go online. My life is so hard.

Her friends: Your dad is mean.

Me: *roll eyes.*

What a brat.There is more to life then stupid fb.lol......Teens today.some really makes me shake my head.I'm sure she will get some one to buy her a new one.

Some teens have such not so nice pics up to gain attention.The wrong attention/

I agree with everything except shooting the computer. IMO, get rid of it by giving it to someone maybe. Or just lock it up in your closet. Waste of money to shoot it--but this is coming from a penny pincher.

Yeah.Maybe the dad did it has a point or was mad.

Oh my goodness!! That's awful, what the girl said. If I ever said anything like that... I guess she needed to be taught a lesson.

She did.Teens need to learn to respect theire parents

I agree. I really don't being around kids, especially girls my age who will backtalk their parents, and act like they are proud of it.

I understand that.When i was your age i didn't like being around some girls either cuz of the way they acted. All i know that is if i was like .(acting like a brat.) My parents would have NOT been too happy. I think today some teeens don't appreacte what they have.

I NEVER had iphones,Ipads,Ipods when i was a teen..They have so much more then i did at that age.Heck i had no FB>

I think it's fair enough to be honest. There comes a time where they're gonna have to learn the tough way.

It's very sad.Parents need to keep a close eye on what kids do online.

Yeah I know someone in college who's roomate didn't even know how to wash or iron clothes and my friend had to show her how to start a washing machine because her parents never assigned her any chores. I think that's sad; you have to learn when you're younger, and you might not like it at the time, but in the long run, it will help you. Teach a good work ethic, IMHO.

You've said it, Rhonda! And yes, Joe...some parents are raising mosnter inestead of children and teens...

Vanesa.

I never got a cell phone until I was 14, and I didn't even text until I was almost 16. I still do not have my own computer/laptop and am fine with that. Same with a tv in my room. I just have a mini dvd player that I watch my dvd's on in my room which is the only thing I care to watch really. I do not have an IPOD either. I am pretty basic and fine with it.
