How to discipline a young teen? My fiance has an 11 year old son. His son treats him like dirt, he has no respect for him. When he speaks to him, it is like one adult talking to another and his mother lets him get away with it. Now there are no curse words, but there may as well be. He yells and has a smart *** attitude. Thing is, he is a guy not an adult and he is speaking to his dad in a manner which only adults should. Between his father and I, we have 3 younger guys, I am afraid that they are going to see and hear all this going on and think it is okay for them to act in the same manner. All my fiance can think to do is yell at him (which I know is not the right thing to do), he does not know how to discipline him neither do I. He has tried just speaking with him, but nothing seems to be working. I want to help, but I am clueless as to how to handle the citation. I am afraid it is only going to get worse. Does anyone have any good advise as how to handle this? Thank you, please serious advisers we really need help… | | In order to discipline a guy, you must have discipline yourself. This means that you must be diligent enough to give him a consequence EACH AND EVERY TIME he messes up. Do it even when you're tired, frustrated, and at your wit's end. First, have your man talk to his ex and let her know that the two of you would like her help in correcting the situation. If your man needs to apologize to his ex for anything, now is a good time to do so. His ex may be bad mouthing him to their son and/or the guy just saw with his own eyes what his dad did that negatively effected him, his mother, and his home. If he needs to apologize to his son, he should do so. If you feel you need family counseling, sign everyone up. Let this boy know that you'll no longer tolerate his behavior. It doesn't mean having a long talk where you try to reason with him and tell him all about his influence on your guyren. No, no, no. Simply tell him that those days are over. Each and every time he misbehaves, send him away from the family- like in another room. Send him to a room that isn't very entertaining. If he refuses to go, ground him. If he refuses the grounding, you must have the discipline to take him right back to his mother. He needs to understand that your family is a nice one and if he isn't nice, he may not be around your family. If you end up taking him to his mother, the next time you communicate with him, make sure he knows you two love him (especially his dad, of course) BUT that he can only return to your home when he fulfills his grounding. If you've told him no TV/video games for two weeks, then for two weeks while he's at your house (even if he's only there a few days at a time, just make sure he does actual two weeks worth of abstaining) he has to abstain. If he says he'll be good and do as you say, but when he gets to your house continues to mess up, then you continue to discipline. That's all. Eventually he'll figure out its all up to his behavior. Good behavior gets him a good experience at your house. Bad behavior gets him sent away from the family. That's all. Good luck to you. I know it must be scream worthy. | Advice needed for a young teen interested in getting into computer science? Is there anything I should prepare myself with, before getting into computer science in college?
I'm currently in my final year of high school and the whole career dilemma is back again.. (been on off my weeks.) I've always wanted to be a psychologist, but those days are gone because of a few prominent reasons - one of them being that my family does not support me in that...
Anyway, I have been researching online and even going to the forums but there's nothing much I've found useful/answering my question.
Is learning to program needed before getting my *** into CS?
What exactly is needed?
If it helps ... I'm also an INTP. (If you know MBTI, that is.)
I've heard so much that some people in CS are already "computer whizzes" who started programming since they were twelve or some ****. That really freaks me out, even more so because I'm a girl. I don't want to be intimidated or anything but just to prepare myself. | | If you're good with math and logic, most colleges are pretty good about teaching you the rest. All of my programming classes consisted of a good mix of people that already knew everything and could leave class after 10 minutes and people who needed a little more time to figure it out. The only one's you'll really hear from are the ones who KNOW they're good and sure they'll make it. Don't let that disuade you. There are still some people who go to school to learn. | Why do people on here feel the need to judge teen mothers and young families? I don't ask questions often and I know it is probably lame but I get so mad at others when I see smart *** comments made, you know you are just feeding the liars and bullying the ones with real questions, and as a mother of 2 at the age of 23, I really would like to know what the problem is. I am not on welfare, like some *** wrote "young mothers get knocked up on purpose to get money from the goverment", by the way I have a job and it is working for the goverment, I am going to college, I am married to the man who fathered both my guyren we own our own home and if I had met some of you when we were starting out I probably would have put a gun in my mouth because of how harsh some of you are... so here is my question or questions to those who judge me and the other moms like me. What the hell gives you the right to call me names and tell me I am stupid and worthless? One more thing, the next time you want to up your points, think before you type you don't know who is reading it. | A lot of the people who answer these questions are too young to know what they're talking about. If they "flame" someone for a question on young motherhood, it is because they either had a bad experience with young motherhood or aren't grown up enough to give an appropriate answer.
As for people having guyren in order to receive Welfare, I do have to say it is a pretty less than bright way to get money. Diapers and formula cost nearly as much if not more than a person receives in Welfare. Even with Women Infants and Guyren food programs, guy allowance, and Welfare, the income is very low. It is not a life that most people want or intentionally get themselves into.
Personally, I don't know why other people get so aggressive or insulting. Maybe because it makes them feel better about themselves. The person who asks the question has opened up and made him/herself vulnerable. To some immature or socially maladapted people it gives them a feeling of superiority to rub salt into an open wound. It is probably because they are insecure about their own failings that they feel a need to make fun of what they perceive as the failings of others.
Don't take their responses personally. Just feel sorry for them. | The young teen iraqi given 2 million? what the hell is this all about ?...how could we let this happen?....our troops and the troops from the US put there asses on the line everyday in iraq and afghanistan ....they are killed or badly wounded on a daily basis ..do they get 2 million quid in compo??..NO....so why should some snot nosed sponger ..come to our country ...get free healthcare ...and free housing get 2 million quid for doing NOTHING????.....where is the justice in this?? why should he get the life of a king while our troops and there familys get next to sod all ??? sorry if it seems like im ranting....but i would like to know who the hell agrees with me on this... | | i totally agree with you! damn b*sterd, they should have shot him in the head not the spine! | Whats up with teen fashion? scene and hip hop? when did this happen? the other day i saw some young teen who was wearing typical hip hop stuff, like a green fitted hat with the bill straight, and matching weird-*** green sneakers, and weird green designs on his shirt. but he was also wearing tight black girl jeans, and he had emo hair?? did wigger and emo guys combine since ive been out of high school? whats up with you guys??? | | LMAO! That's funny. Yeah today's fashion is wierd. | What's a good age to introduce George Carlin to my little bro? He's a funny guy and can hold court among older guys. He's only 6 and he'll have a crowd of young teens around him laughing their *** off.
Any other comedians I can show him now. I was thinking Gallagher. | | George Carlin's material is a little old for him yet, wait until he is about 9 so his friends should be old enough to get the jokes as well. He may be able to understand them but that does not mean his audience will be. For a six year old you would want to go with lighter comedians such as Johnathan Winters, Rodney Dangerfield, Red Skeleton, Gabriel Iglesias, Howie Mandel, and maybe even Carrot Top. If he can get Lenny Bruce's material then he might be ready to get George Carlin's as well. Lenny had about the same sharp sense of humor but was a bit more tactful because of the times he lived in. | Young teens and "Sexting"? My son just turned 15 and has a 13 year old girl sending FULL on nude sexy photos via email. Not only is this disturbing in itself, but also the fact that my husband and I have govt. jobs that require a security clearance. I don't want this to come back and bite us in the ***.
First I want to know if anyone knows if this is illegal? Secondly, I don't know this girl but I want to know how to approach the situation. My first thought is to go to her and kick her in the ***. Of course, I can't do that. So what I want to know is do I call her cell and ask for her parents, or do I do a reverse look up on her phone number and find out her address and go to see her parents in person, and show them what their daughter is doing? I have read her messages and she is definitely not a good girl being coerced, and its obvious she is the aggressor. My son is actually an air head and most of these pictures only have her message on them, w/o him responding. He is not requesting them.
I am not asking my son for any info because naturally, he will deny it. I also don't want to tell him I know until after I settle it so he doesn't warn her. And I will tell him. I cannot understand how any parent of a young teen would just let them on Facebook, Myspace, etc. and not monitor (knowingly or unknowingly) the content of what their guys are doing. As far as privacy goes, as long as my guys are under 18 and I am paying for their cell phones and computer accts, its my perogative to periodically check up on them. Especially how things are in this day and age. | It is in a legal grey area. Most states have Romeo and Juliet laws allowing teens to date with-in specific years of age to each other. The same laws allow for consensual sexual activity. Now the problem comes in is that a teen can take and send pics of themselves. But anyone forwarding these pics or showing them to others is committing disbursement of guy porn. So by allowing you to see these pics your teen has broken a major law. If he forwarded or showed them to his friends then he could be charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor, dispersal of guy porn, illegal possession of pornographic material and other things.
Tell your son how dangerous and stupid this is. Let him know it is also much safer and more fun to be nude together. FYI: anything sent or received can be restored even after it's deleted and the account is closed. | Music nowadays sucks, because MANY young people music taste nowadays sucks? and before I go any further, I just want to clarify that I'm born in 1982 (which makes me still of today's young/Gen Y generation,...not some typical 'old-gen-hates-new-gen' cliched story).
I know that this has been said over & over again that it's almost a cliche, but seriously, as a big music lover and a musician myself, I feel really really sad & angry for the current state of *MAINSTREAM* music nowadays (note: i am not saying ALL, just those big MAJOR hits that's played in radio & MTV nowadays), that everytime I turn on the radio or MTV or V channel nowadays, it's like I just want to destroy my radio & TV forever, because I can't stand how music nowadays just basically feels very 'dry', lack emotions, very shallow lyrics and theme, and the same boring **** repeated from artist to artist. this alone is already sad. but what makes me even sadder, is of how there are still MANY many people (particularly teens, I notice) that said of how this & this major artist have a TALENT, and a HUGE one!......uhh, no it's not. it's sadly just a "clever marketing & advertising strategy" coupled with being "commercial" & having all about pretty looks & body (and showing cleavage & boobs for female).
what happened to the great, very emotional, and actually INNOVATIVE music, and I'm talking about MAINSTREAM music, such as:
- Beatles : Eleanor Rigby (still damn genius song, IMO)
- Carpenters' heartfelt emotional songs & *meaningful* lyrics that you CAN actually relate, such as Yesterday Once More, Rainbow Connection, Leave Yesterday Behind
- Queen : Show Must Go On (I literally shiver everytime I hear this, even still now!)
and many many other good *MAINSTREAM* music??
- and in the rock realm itself, all those REAL-innovative (not the misinterpred "fake innovative") rock music such as Led Zeppelin's Kashmir, Guns N Roses' kick-*** ending in song November Rain, Deep Purple's Sweet Guy in Time, Burn, etc
- even funky, soul music such as in the movie Sister Act (just watched it yesterday) were still DAMN GOOD compared to the crappy repetitive r&b and sh*tty blink-blink shallow hip-hop music nowadays! (that again, misplacedly labeled as "talented"! uggghh!)
instead, nowadays for the *MAINSTREAM* music played in radio and TV, and labeled as "talented, gorgeous" by these young teens, we got Lady Gaga feat Beyonce with mediocre, 'dry' music, then showing all their body and by repeating meaningless "e e e e e e e" phrases and lack heartfelt LYRICS! .....and don't even get me started on talking about Ke$$$$hhhhaa & Bieberrr!
I mean seriously,..as cliche & overly-repeated question this certainly is, but I'm there's a REAL POINT in people asking this question: what the hell is wrong with music nowadays? and where is it heading?
and thus my main question: is it *only* music nowadays that sucks,..or is it because today's MAINSTREAM young teens & people are part to blame, because there're still a LOT lot of them, fact of the matter, still like it, even label them as "talented" ???
and a BIG kudos will be added, if you can actually tell me, how to change this hopeless situation we're in?
thanks, and please forgive my frustration!
PS: again I'm not saying ALL music today sucks. it's the major, MAINSTREAM music that's currently "popular" and played over & over again in music & radio, that so many people nowadays sadly still think they're "talented", and that's WHY they're POPULAR/famous! ouch, big one! | And people wonder why the majority of the teenage population are such idiots!
I'm a teenager and I am definitely not one of those people who thinks automatically someone has talent (Of course taking choir for a few years may have been part of that). I used to love pop and country but now can't stand it other than older stuff like what my parents listen to and what i grew up with. I liked Taylor Swift and Owl City before anyone knew who they were, and now all my used to be favorite songs are played over and over again on the radio so i can't stand to listen to them.
I think that because it's mostly teens going into music is why a lot of teenagers like their music. And also its so sad b/c all the songs from the 70s and 80s are now known by teens only b/c of guitar hero or rock band. At school I randomly hum a song and guys are like oh i love that song, and I try to talk about the band but they know nothing except that song. Even my best friend is like that!
And yes I think it's because a lot of teens are willing to waste their money on 'talent' like that is why we still have it and it's getting worse and worse.
The way to stop it though ( which might be really hard) is to not support these 'talented' people. I think i could go on a whole rant like u did on this especially with kings of leon, beiber, miley, and the messeges of their music (as in sex, money, and more sex) but i won't. They even managed to ruin disney! Now I don't watch it anymore.
by the way, Beatles, Guns and Roses, and Queen rock! as well as a few others ^^ | Did smart *** guys ever got on ur nerves? Have u ever met a smart *** guy like maybe a teen but I'm talking about like sum young guys who are smart ***
I'm sry but sumtymes I hate smart *** guys who talk back or make fun of someone
I went to this summer camp where me being a young lady, was 18 was made fun by teens n guys
it pisses me off wen sum1 is rude to me even if it is a guy
I seriously can't stand dem n I knooo dey r guys butt still they have a brain n surely its too small for dem
sooo iv u have a stry of rude guys n I'm not being racist but the guys were black n I'm not picking on dem but the ones who made fun of me were mostly blck guys | | Well those guys were probably smarter than you since you obviously can't spell and don't understand the English language. | Do you think its possible for two teens? Do you think its possible for two younger teens to make it across the country?
roughly 2,050 miles without a car.
if they were prepared and everything.
opinions??
and please say why or why not.
and keep your smart-*** answers to yourself | Top two answers are in a fantasy world. I can get that your emotionally ready, but not physically. Of course, unless you have the money. In that case, get going.
Without a car, I have no idea how you would get to each other. Hitch hiking is dangerous because even though you hear this often, it is in reality. WEIRD PEOPLE LIVE. They will take you and do weird stuff. Don't trust strangers.
You can take buses and taxi's, but the fee will be obnoxiously large. Of course, you two can meet halfway so it wont be as bad as paying it all by yourself.
Will your parents let you? another question you should ask yourself.
Maps arent as reliable as you think unless you know exactly where you are going. Without a place to use technology, you could get lost easily.
If i were you, i would wait for use of a car, plane, parent, vacation, w/e. |
