Smiles, what is the purpose of this thread?
I believe that the discussion taking place is relevant to the "Massacre at Virginia Tech"...
Murphy, your statement is a blanket assesment from your living room and if you have kids, maybe from them. My wife's conclusion comes from working with kids all over the state as well as 2 other states. I guess you didn't read any of my posts AFTER I disagreed with one thing. I said you were right about the outlets.. which in turn, can be a main reason why kids are effected by verbal abuse more today than when we were growing up. Me personally, for example, may have suffered only from low self-esteem from being teased, where as now these kids just internalize and _______fill in the blank on what happens from there. Luckily, there are people like my wife with a gift of working with kids.
