Parental Advisory

Well this weekend was great. It's nice to have a three day weekend.
This weekend I saw some live shows in Deep Ellum, went to a Texas Tech
football game, barbecued, had a Lan party, and slept. Yesterday I
watched movies - I saw the Passion(great movie), The Bad Seed(1956) -
(freaky movie) and watched some Seinfeld. The bad seed is this really
old black and white movie about a little girl that kills people. I
guess it was the precursor to movies like the Omen and Exorcist.
Except it wasn't scary as much as it was a thriller. It makes you ask
the question - what if your daughter turns out to be an 8 year old
homicidal maniac? This question should be on everyone's mind. I mean
behind their cute faces lies someone who would kill you at the
slightest misstep. There's a reason why some parents spoil their kids.
I think it is because deep down they know they could be killed in
their sleep. That's why they put all sharp things out of their reach.
Not for the kids safety, but for their own. I suppose if I had an 8
year old homicidal maniac for a daughter I'd do the same. I might even
insist I lock her door at night, clean the house of all things that
could be used as a weapon, and maybe just maybe check the backyard
every once in a while for fresh graves. You just never know.

Comments:
You need to start watching nice movies. There are no murderous 8 year olds (or extemely few.) You don't fear kids. They fear you. It it didn't work out like that, the parent have majorly messed up somewhere. That's why I do believe in spanking, and not this "time out" crap. Who's scared of a time out? I can only imagine how bad our generation would've turned out if the parents had all said, "Don't do drugs...If you do, I'm giving you a time out." My dad threatened to put my head through a wall and he meant it.....hence, no drug use.
