I don't think a single person with teaching or parenting experience had any issues with it. Some people had a problem with the implied comics violence. Such a severe lack of sense of humor, black as it may be, requires medical treatment!<br /><br />In any case, thanks for the support!Uriksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03456662104417425451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7311772169747420995.post-51047998331155582952011-09-15T21:40:49.381+03:002011-09-15T21:40:49.381+03:00I am, honestly, baffled about why the article on d...I am, honestly, baffled about why the article on discipline is controversial. You have a very good grasp of what motivates kids, and nowhere in here do you advocate staking any of them over an anthill. I have three kids, myself, and I wouldn't hesitate to take your advice about how to deal with bad behavior. (Although I've tried to pull off "kick them out of the group" before, and it turns out the hospital won't take them back!)Torah Cottrillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14508962093040960763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7311772169747420995.post-82215184509901142312011-09-06T14:08:50.642+03:002011-09-06T14:08:50.642+03:00I guess you're right.

If there were no rules just for making the teachers' life easier, there would be not teacher working 30 years in his life. Though this definitely depends on culture, country, age and whatnot.Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09773453811676221029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7311772169747420995.post-28784625536193422062011-09-06T00:27:11.966+03:002011-09-06T00:27:11.966+03:00Random collection of letters and numbers, I don...Random collection of letters and numbers, I don't agree with you.

But I feel many rules are implemented solely to feed the teacher's egos or to make their job easier at the expense of the children's spiritual and creative development.Uriksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03456662104417425451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7311772169747420995.post-37075000275123530642011-09-05T12:22:48.009+03:002011-09-05T12:22:48.009+03:00I can't help but add that laws and stuff are a...I can't help but add that laws and stuff are also meant to make a society work. Which means for example that one may not interfere with the freedom of others. That includes trying to answer the question where to draw the line between self expression and the freedom of those whose freedom is limited by others self expression. It also includes the need to learn to shut up when it's not your turn so others may speak, too. Which surprisingly often is not learned properly. but it surely does not include bolting tables to the floor.Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09773453811676221029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7311772169747420995.post-39178976711480182642011-09-05T00:53:37.679+03:002011-09-05T00:53:37.679+03:00The etymological meaning of good: the example wit...The etymological meaning of good: the example within a society.<br /><br />The etymological meaning of evil: the exception within a society.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
