I don't want to dictate how anyone else should speak, but I personally try not to use certain words, and I wanted to explain my reasons to the audience. I could talk about why I don't like to use the word "clitoris", but I'd either be preaching to the choir or upsetting lesbians. Nikol, you asked a question and I finally have an answer. During the incident that we mentioned on the show, the mother did absolutely nothing to control her children. We sat behind her for a few hours, and I didn't hear her scold them once, even when the one child was turning around or licking the H1N1 off of the train windows. It would have made me less angry if she had <em>tried</em> to control her kids, and if they still misbehaved I would at least have felt some empathy towards her. And yes, she did seem a little trailer trashy. Hutch, I agree that we don’t need further repressive legislation, whether liberal or the Patriot Act.

I defer to my original post in that at that age there needs to be "fear" of you, as an essential element. That way when this happens you can give them "the look" and they will know what it means. I did it, still do and my son outweighs me by 50 pounds and could crush me if I didn't draw fast enough haha. BTW he's 19 and I only smacked him twice in his life, once for stealing and then lying (6 years) then for hitting his sister (8 years).

They know they aren't my friends. I am more referring to that oh so specific situation in which a parent has their kids in public and the kids decide to have a bitch fit. What could the parent do in that situation that the public would think is "good parenting"? I am not sure there is an answer. And don't say "Leave the store" because sometimes it isn't an option.

I listened as I was brewing my latest batch of hombrew that will be on tap for New Years. Hey Carmen, I think we need to rethink all the candy ass offense concerning language. The whole politically correct bullshit phenomenon sweeping the land is corrupting everything. We need to toughen up a little and not be so worried about all these sub groups of America. We are all a member of several of them and if we divide (or let liberals divide) us up, that is a conquorable equation. Sticks and Stones comes to mind and when that happens action is required, but until then some shit is retarded brother no need to enact further repressive legistlation that will be used for means other than what was intended anyway....hey you said yinz love the comments. Advice for Nikol, it's tough but sometimes you can't be their friend i.e. they have to fear you at times, just sayin. Hutch S’up fellas great short ass show!

I hate those times and I always feel like trailer trash when it happens. I also start wishing someone will help. I know it seems like, "Hey, you're the parent. It is your job to make your 3 year old stop throwing shit out of the shopping cart." But sometimes that 3 year old is in the mood to toss some stuff and the groceries aren't shopping for themselves. All this rambling to ask, "What do you think the parent should *do* in a situation where they have the kids out in public, they cannot just leave, and the kids are way out of control?"
