what do ya think?
if they're Republicans yes.if they're Democrats then no.
Well, one of the liberal-leaning candidates in the 2016 race believes unwed mothers should be publicly shamed.
just curious, what prompted you to ask this question?just a random thought you had or something else?
Someone else. I don't agree with it. But it's jow Jeb Bush felt.http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/06/09/jeb-bush-1995-book_n_7542964.htmlWrote about it in his book, and allowed some legislation as Gov which forced single mothers to put their names in print in local newspapers. He said we should shame them, then as governor, he required them to be shamed, by law. We all know repubs can't win unless they win with women... and I don't know how women feel about this.
last time I checked it was not a crime to have a child out of wedlock and also no ones fucking business either.Is this the same Jeb Bush who bitched about the media covering his daughters arrest and court appearance for various drug charges?I wonder if a nice healthy dose of government sponsored public shaming would be helpful for drug addicts
Looks like he tried to throw his weight around to keep the media off his daughter's story, too.So he's a failed leader in his own household, and he's a hypocrite on multiple fronts. Got it.
It's a dumb policy idea, but he's not "a failed leader in his own household" simply because his kid did something stupid. I know lots of good parents whose kids do stupid stuff. It's a part of growing up.
Pardon me, but are you saying that forging prescriptions for dangerous drugs and smoking crack in rehab are "a part of growing up"?
...you wouldn't be defending this simply because Jeb is a Republican, would you, DE?
For some kids, yes. "Stupid stuff" doesn't really have boundaries. Some kids go farther off the reservation than others. I used to think like you until I started to hang around parents, talk to them, and see the things some kids do, despite good parenting.
If the person hasn't grown to understand/respect boundaries, yeah. That's the one thing that lands squarely on the parents, though. No denying it. This girl was acting like there's no such thing as boundaries...so you tell me.
Kids don't typically fully mature until they are in their mid to late 20s, so it's not uncommon at all for teenagers and young adults to do stupid things, including not respecting boundaries. Training kids lands squarely on the parents. Whether kids actually apply good training is on the kids, not the parents.
If only it were that simple, I'd say. The idea is to make sure the kids understand why they need to respect boundaries, if there's any expectation for them to go out and do that.
I wonder if there's a history of drug abuse with him and/or Columba.
Sometimes parents do provide good training about understanding and respecting boundaries, but the kids still cross the line. That's partly what makes parenting a difficult job. If you talk to most any parent, they will tell you that about WTF moments they have had with their kids, where the kids do things that cut directly against how they were raised. Happens all the time.
