Should schools, churches, stores, parks, etc
have the right to set behavioral limits on people's children. Or should however the parent discipline their childrern be the norm?Who has rights to establish boundries and discipiline for kid beside the parents?
common sense rules should be enforced by any responsible adult present the discipline IE spanking and grounding should be done by parents and grand parentsWho has rights to establish boundries and discipiline for kid beside the parents?
Well, if I go into a bar drunk off my butt and act inappropriately so that I am invading on other's rights/space/good time, I will be asked to leave or made to leave by the cops.
So yes, any of your suggestions would work if done properly. No, no one gets to spank your kid w/o permission or time them out or etc.
I don't mean a baby crying in church or a normal hissy fit, but if you can't control your children, you need to leave.
Example: when you witness your child run up to my table in a restaurant, take food from my plate, and run away shrieking like a banshee and do nothing but roll your eyes, and go back to your conversation THAT is neglect, THAT is abuse, you should be made to leave, pay for my dinner, and get slapped with some kind of misdemeanor.
Well, there is a big difference between boundaries and discipline. I think that all of those places have a right to set boundaries on behavior that is acceptable in their establishment, and the right to kick out anyone not adhering to those rules. I think that the discipline is up to the parents alone - with the exception of parents who want their children disciplined at school/daycare because they may not always be able to leave work and go immediately do the punishing themselves. Personally, even if my child did something wrong in school I would still want to be called and come deal with the issue myself - I wouldn't want her being kept in detention because I think it's silly and that discipline is most effective when it comes from a parent.
Yes but with in limits. Schools have rules and children shoulf follow them and learn to be respectful. If they break them there are things, detentions, etc that they can do. I do not agree with they way things were done were anyone spanked a child. There are sick people in the world that take advantage and abuse kids. Some parents don't believe in spanking and that is there proagative they should not have their kids subjected to that. Kids should be taught by parents that their are rules and laws in the world and when you are not home you need to follow other peoples rules and if you don't there are consequences.
only the parents can set bounderies. but those descisions are usualy affected by those you named above.
I agree with Marie C. Good answer, Marie!
It depends. The person in the position of being responsible for the child should decide. Parents should overall thow...
Anyone who is given the responsibility of caring for a child should have the right to establish boundaries and discipline. Certainly the school should have these rights! As far as the other entities you mentioned, they should be permitted to establish appropriate rules, and enforce them.
If the parents are there, then they should be in charge of the discipline. However, if the parent didn't see it, I think it is perfectly fine for another adult to verbally, kindly reprimand my child. If I am not around, however, I hope that people will reprimand my kids and keep them in line. Obviously they cannot ground them and should not spank them, but giving time-outs or tell them to knock it off is fine by me. I can't always be there and I don't want my kids thinking they can get away with things just because my husband and I aren't there.
I also agree with Marie C. Anyone who's caring for the child should have the right to set boundaries for that child. Of course the parent has the right to evaluate those boundaries and the dicipline that's used when those boundaries are crossed. If the parent doesn't agree then it's the parent's right and responsibility to bring it to the attention of the person or people who are taking care of the child.
schools and parents .
It takes a village to raise a child. What is okay at home is not necessarily okay at a supermarket. There are indoor and outdoor voices, for example. As for discipline, it again depends on the child and the circumstances. At a school I do believe that time out is okay but no spanking or smacking of a hand. In general, I do believe that parents do discipline their children and its the norm. But society of course dictates behavior as well.
I agree with Marie C. There are standards of conduct (should be) when out in public that everyone should abide by. Obviously or maybe not so that children should be given more leeway because they are children. The whole idea is consideration and respect for all. Isn't it?
