Well my parents finally threatened to take my games away

[Sgt.Pepper1983]

I never had this problem in high school because I always finished my work before doing anything else. My mom did confront me once about the fact that she asways saw me playing nintendo and never saw me studying, but after showing her some of my work she realized that she was worrying over nothing. But I did notice that even with all the good advice that was in this thread, it seems like some of the people here are saying that parents can do no wrong. That is bullshit. The fact that my mom is a homophobe and my granddad is a racist does absolutely nothing to change the fact that all homophobes and racists are the scum of the earth.

[Poopopyo]

Jesus christ my mom ALWAYS threatens to take my games away. Whenever she does I just boldly say "I payed for them beotch " I spent my whole entire bank account on most of my game systems and I'm not gonna let her take them away. She always comes up with excuses like "it's my electricity". Besides, I'm going to notice her unhook and drag 20 game systems out of my room.

So you resurrected this thread just to brag that you "boldly" call your mom a bitch and brag that you get all up inner face and shit.

Way to go junior. Way to garner respect on this board. Did you not read ANY of the comments in this thread before popping off? Damn.

 

EDIT: I also noticed that your avatar has "RESPECT YOUR ELDERS" with an Atari on it. So you respect the 2600, but not your own folks. Wow, I don't know what to think now.

 

It's not like I ALWAYS think of my mother as a bitch, everybody has to think that for at least one minute in their lives. I love my mom, but sometimes she just ticks me off.

 

I didn't realize that this thread was so old. I saw it in the Similar Topics list and didn't check the date. So what?

I never took the SAT's.

But, I did graduate HS with Honors all the years.

 

Dad said if I got high enough over 1400 in the PSAT's and since I was planning on going to community college which didn't require them at the time, then I didn't have to. My two friends got 1600's on the PSAT's and SAT's respectively, and me? Well, I only got somewhere around 1500, went to community college and am a Mom now. I couldn't justify spending all those hours sitting at a desk while the world waited outside. I also got high enough grades and sang in Church stuff, so that I was excused from the 4hr graduation ceremony and didn't have to attend. This let me out of school 2 weeks earlier then everyone else.

One of those friends also said "Eff you" to the Catholic HS we went to, took himself out when he turned 18, got his GED by that January, got married a couple months later, and entered College. I lost touch with him maybe 6 yrs ago but man he was both a genius and crazy. Another friend got 1600 on his SATs and a full scolarship to Columbia based on all his scores and grades at the time.

 

Anymore though unfortunately standardized testing is the norm and it's almost a must to take that crap as well as getting the highest grades possible because even non ivy league colleges have more applicants then spaces. Also, with todays economy less expensive but still stellar colleges are getting more applicants then they know what to do with as are quite a few trade schools. So, you have to stand out in a positive way.

 

Eventually Bean will be old enough and in school herself so that if I don't home school her, I will be going back to finish up my degrees. I don't regret her or not taking that stupid test even if some of my other actions could have been far better thought out.

 

Of course grades matter. How would you even get into (a worthwhile) college with lousy grades? And if college isn't for you, your high school record and maybe some a couple of references from typical high-school-kid jobs are all you have heading into the adult world. Generally speaking.

 

Well, if you manage to ace the ACT/SAT it doesn't matter as much... I didn't say 'lousy' grades... I said 'screw around more'!

AP classes were a waste, I could have taken the standard classes and gotten better grades overall. Our system didn't do weighted grades or anything. What a shaft.

 

 

Oh and poopopyo, don't worry, I wouldn't take your systems or games but everything else you need to play them including electricity to your room, cables, controllers, and if the TV was mine, I would take that too as well as the stand it stood on. Computer and cable in your room? Not any more they aren't. Phone? What's that? Try and sneak out, I have cures for that too. Go ahead and try it and at that point I would dare you to your face.

Sure kids might get pissed at their parents but outwardly for everything they do for you you'd better show them proper respect.

Yes if you called me that to my face I would most certainly make you feel it. Without leaving a mark of course since that's child abuse but all natural pita, cottage cheese, sprouts, sardines, raw vegetable, goat milk, fermented soy etc. diets aren't. There are many other unpleasant ways to punish a kid and make it far more painful then a quick hit. Plus, go ahead and call the cops. Now who would they believe - a nice petite mom who does everything to take care of and sacrifice for her family or a belligerant kid who isn't doing well in school? I'm mean, but I'm fair. And if you want to be treated like an adult then you'd better act it.

In most schools, if you take all the AP courses you can, and get good AP test scores, you can skip the equivalent of a year of college! Either save a year of tuition money, or at least, make your four years in college a little more productive. Hardly a waste.

 

Besides, to a college admissions officer, someone with phenomenal ACT or SAT scores but a low GPA (or a bunch of easy classes) is going to appear lazy, and they will just pick the next applicant who has the same ACT/SAT but better courses/grades.

 

I bet we're both long out of high school so this is pretty much mental masturbation.

 

But to anyone else reading this, what you do does count. The effort you put into something does count. I know your teachers tell you you're all precious little snowflakes and you're all winners but really, once you get out of school, the real world is just as competitive as it ever was, and you get out what you put in. (usually) Our country is raising a generation of self-important mush-heads (not that I'm talking about anyone on THIS thread of course ). Great, less competition for me.

And get off my lawn!

[CGQuarterly]

How you do in high school does not count. I got a 2.2 in high school. Then I went to community college and got a 2.8 (the minimum required to transfer from community college to a University of California campus.) Then at UC Davis, I graduated with about a 2.5 at most, with a degree in chemistry. Honestly, you don't have to do that well in school, you just have to know how the system works. And as far as getting a job goes, the only time anyone might care what you college GPA was is when you are interviewing for your first out-of-college job. After that it's all about job experience and what you actually know. If you are still even listing your GPA on your resume a couple of years out of college, you just look like a fool.

 

College doesn't prepare you for the job world anyway. I don't remember about 95% of what I learned on college because you don't use most of it, and I would say that 80-90% of the stuff I need to know for my job I learned not in school but at this and previous jobs. College is basically a test to see if you can hack it in your chosen profession. If you can't manage to get a 4 year degree in chemistry, for instance, the chances are that you are either not smart enough or too lazy to have a job in that field. The same can be said for any job that requires a college education. It isn't really about the education.

 

And to the tool who bumped this thread, yeah most kids at some point or another think that their mom is a bitch. My mom was pretty freaking bitchy when I was in high school, but not once did I ever talk to her like that. And she threatened to do the same kind of crap to me. That doesn't give you the right to talk to your mother like that. Asshats like you are what's wrong with the kids these days.

 

And Chickybaby, I really enjoyed your post about feeding the kid sprouts and whatnot. I should take notes in case I ever have kids. Don't take the games, just take the controllers! Brilliant.

Taking the TV is much smarter than packing up all the game systems!

 

I'd choose a good beating over having to eat that diet. (I eat my veggies, but I can't stand sprouts or anything soy!)

Wow, dude, just plain wow. Sounds like your mom could do you a better service with some discipline. Be thankful for what she does for you...someday you might not have that luxury. I guarantee you when I was a little boy I didn't like some of the things my Mom did, like making me do homework and brush my teeth, but when my eight year old eyes saw her on her death bed, she wasn't a _____ then...far from it.

 

My Mom barely even believed in the rod when she was still alive, but if I'd said that to her face she would have slapped me so hard my head spun around. I know that because I tried it about once when I was six or seven. After the pain subsided, I was grounded for a very long time, and yes, she did take my games away. All of them.

 

Oh, and if I'd called my Dad anything similar to that, I'd have had a size 12 work boot buried in my @$$ all the way up to the knee, and I expect Mom would have cheered him on if she'd seen it. Once again, I learned this the hard way, 'cause I thought with Mom no longer around I could get away with it. So not...and no more games for another long while, too.

 

Sorry, I just get a little worked up when I see kids bragging about dissing or disobeying their parents. Why on Earth don't some parents stand up to their kids!?

LOL my dad tried that back when I first moved to this house. If you didn't see my other thread about the "quintessential TV", I said it weights about 500lbs. He tried to pick it up and move it and just went "AH FUCK IT!!" and stormed upstairs.

Wow. Sounds like your parents didn't do a good service for you for some good discipline.

 

I guarantee you when I was a kid and as a teenager back in the 1980's and 1990's that I don't always like what my parents did, but I bit my tongue. My parents weren't being bitches or being too strict. My parents loved both their sons equally and treated us the same despite the fact I had hand eye coordination problems and a stuttering problem. My parents didn't want my younger brother and I to become brats or out of control teens and we were punished when we deserved it as a result.

 

I never tried talking back to my parents. I did disobey parents once when I was punished by being grounded, but I ended up grounded for a longer amount of time. I never did that again as a result.

 

I didn't recall getting a spanking from my parents. My parents believed groundings instead. When I got in trouble by my parents, I wasn't allowed to do a lot. When I got grounded, I had to sit at the kitchen table is read, do homework, eating breakfast, lunch and super or play with your thumbs. The kitchen didn't have a television set.

 

The only stuff that I was allowed to do standing up while being grounded is go to school, do chores, go to the bathroom, and go to bed.

 

That means I couldn't do a lot of things when I got grounded including video games and playing outside.

 

Sorry, I just get a little worked up when I see kids bragging about dissing or disobeying their parents. Why can't some parents stand up to their kids?.

Seems parents lose more power over their kids every decade that goes by. Soon, all forms of punishment will be seen as abuse. You won't be able to take anything away from them or they'll be able to sue you because they will have become accustomed to a certain lifestyle.

 

The solution is pretty simple. Since most people believe that they will live on after death, they need to drop the idea that they must have kids to have a sense of immortality. You're already 'immortal'. You don't stop living once your body stops working. It's just a shell. Since you are an eternal being, you don't need to have children in a lame attempt to live on through them. Your pathetic human last name and traditions will eventually be destroyed by a planet-wide disaster, so just quit it already. Put your penis away and tell you wife or girlfriend to close up her Easy-F*ck oven. These cruddy little brats will only end up ruining your life, poisoning your food, or cutting your throat while you sleep, so don't give them the chance. You don't have to live out the 'normal' pattern of grow up, get married, have kids, wonder where your life went, then die. Just live your life, enjoy your freedom and have fun.

 

If you already have kids, it's not too late. 'Accidents' happen all of the time. You're an intelligent adult. There are all kinds of ways you could kill off your kids without getting caught. Once you get rid of these ungrateful drains on your wallet and your time, your life will be better than ever. You can take the insurance money and do all of the things you always wanted to do. You can finally enjoy life for once.

LMAO RT. So sick, yet so true. I'm thankful I have a good kid and if she ever starts getting mouthy down the road, I'll point out some of your more priceless posts and tell her she could have ended up with a parent like that. There's a second rewarding career opportunity for you - scaring kids till they behave.

 

Stich, So, just accidentally (oh of course) cut the cord to the TV too... Oops. Now it's even easier. Take the converter box and cancel cable.

 

Thanatos - But with a diet like that is so good for you and 'cleansing' - the punishment lasts far longer then pain from a beating. Besides, having a kid begging to be whupped is far more priceless.

My kid loves fruits and vegetables and pasta more then eating meat so I would have to do something else.

 

But, That's why imo all parents should take psychology, basic law, as well as creative thinking classes.

Hey Poopoyo and Stich666,

 

I have been following this thread with interest. I think a couple of ungrateful, clueless rats need to wise up. Or then again, dis your folks, blow off school,act like you know everything, use foul language, cop an attitude, idolize your 'friends', treat adults who care about you like crap, and only worry about what YOU want to do right now - because as the judge in Caddyshack said "The world needs ditch diggers, too."

 

I restrict my kids' access to their video games if their grades slip - I guess that makes me a butthole or something. And I am talking about getting Bs dude! They are off the games until the grades turn back into As. That may sound harsh, but guess what - my kids are capable of getting As and they do. I have also taught then respect - if they mouth off or use foul language, they pay a price for their behavior. It is all about boundaries. That is what parents are supposed to do, they set boundaries and enforce them so that their kids will be grow up to be productive and respectible adults.

 

I got good grades, stayed out of trouble (or learned my lessons anyway), earned two degrees and have a professional career. Guess what, I can get on ebay, Carl's electonics, go to the game store, etc and buy any game or system anytime I want. I have a basement full of video games including a super hot MAME cabinet that I had custom built to match my pool table, pinball machine and jukebox. I collected this stuff over 20 years, and I am not bragging, I am just pointing out that there are long-term rewards to hard work and good grades, one is being able to pursue hobbies and passions later in life. Try doing that working part time at Wendys and living with your folks.

 

Oh yea, I am also a manager with 18 people working for me in a professional environment. Guess what? Young people with attitudes like yours do not last long in the workplace. Today, it is all about teamwork and working with others. For some reason, you sound a lot like the guys who can't seem to hang on to a job and always have a reason why it is someone elses fault.

 

Might sound harsh, but watch the news - the real world is harsh. And if you think your parents are a pain, wait until you run into people who don't know you or give a rat's rear about you. They won't put up with your crap.

 

Good luck to you, kids! With attitudes like yours you are going to need all the luck you can get.

 

PS Yes, I do want fries with that.

It looks like he should have taken the stuff a long time ago. Those grades are going to close alot of doors really fast. If I were you, I would spend the next year learning to prioritize, concentrating on school and setting limits for myself.

 

If you don't change your habits now, you will find yourself getting the same grades in the classes you plan to take after high school. If you fail then, you will have some major setbacks. Life can be hard and unforgiving when you take your fist steps as an adult.

Not old enough for us old people to start reminiscing and giving advice!

[Chickybaby]

You're still posting in it too and I hope at least by now your grades are up. So, are they?

 

Someone fails to see how old this topic is.

 

I actually find this thread quite informative especially as the parent of a toddler. It's interesting to see various parenting styles, how people were raised themselves and what they believe now.

 

and ps stich - I have my own tv not using the one in my kid's room and now I can even watch many shows for free or subscribe online. I'd still toast your tv kiddo and if your home is anything like this thread take pleasure in it.

[shadow460]

If it comes to a choice between my daughter's grades falling or me destroying an expensive TV that I couldn't live without...I'll destroy the TV to keep her from watching when she should do homework. Quick, painless, and effective. And I don't think I could care less about the value of a particular item--fact is that the money spent on that stuff could have been saved or spent on more important things. As was said, it's about boundaries. A gaming item purchased here or there is OK, but not at the cost of learning to save money.

Oh, and BTW, any item on ebay is only worth what two people are willing to pay for it.

 

Someone fails to see how old this topic is.

 

Serious, it's not all about you and what you want. Some of us are in that group that looks out for number one, particularly when said company is showing a lack of respect to authority figures. There are some things that the world will teach you whether or not you learned them at home. One of those lessons is that there are some things you don't brag about, which is what happened earlier when someone mentioned dissing their parents.

 

Please do not post your content if you don't want others mercilessly copying or editing it.

Oops, my bad, that's on Wikipedia, not Atariage. I'll just cross it out, then.

 

Too bad more parents don't monitor what their kids do online a little more closely.

Hey Stitch, I don't know if you have any interest in living on the West Coast, but we have a fast food chain here called "In-N-Out Burger" that starts at $10 per hour. Of course, those people work their ass off, and those of you who have been to In-N-Out can vouch for that. Best damned fast food burgers on the planet, though.

Yup good burgers if I remember correctly. I think that was where Bean ate her first burger when we were in Vegas. I miss Vegas, it was awesome. Expensive, but beuatiful and a lot of fun for me and Bean. Good times and can't wait to go back.

 

Hey Stitch, I don't know if you have any interest in living on the West Coast, but we have a fast food chain here called "In-N-Out Burger" that starts at $10 per hour. Of course, those people work their ass off, and those of you who have been to In-N-Out can vouch for that. Best damned fast food burgers on the planet, though.

Just give me your parents' phone number. I'll get 'em straightened out for you.

Although not good for you, In-N-Out are supposed to be the least evil (nutritionally speaking) of the fast food chains. I don't eat meat, but their french fries are killer.

 

I just find it really odd...I'm not very old or anything, but TVs were not allowed in our rooms as kids/teenagers, and our parents exerted control over what was in their house. When we'd bring up that bullshit "It's mine, not yours," my dad would say, "Funny, it's on my lot."
