Once my child reaches the age of 12 I'm putting him to work, and if he doesn't, I will belt him. Slapping your child is proven to be an effective form of asserting your authority, and respecting authority is something that every child needs to learn at the earliest age possible, before he or she even walks.
Unfortunately in today's unGodly times, children can be seen skateboarding, shopping, playing video games, going out to movies, and talking with members of the opposite sex. It's disgusting. The moment a child is able to talk, he or she MUST be taught to recite three things:

That is all."

"Slapping your child is proven to be an effective form of asserting your authority..." mark your fucking territory, ConWarr! Nothing says "I'm the Alpha male here, bitch!" like a faceful of hot urine!
Sounds like a loser who was pwned by his own kid, and is jealous of anyone, young or old, who has a life.
Conservative, dear. Kids in the past were, sometimes, working in Factories 14 times a day and the results were catastrophic, whereas the upper class kids were even idler than kids today. The only reason why children don´t work today it´s because maschines have replaced manual labour, and because most of the work today are tie-n-collar jobs who require a College degree which, by its very nature, can´t be acquired at 12. Go to India or Pakistan, where there is child labor, and tell me if you´d like to live there.
Congratulations. Your boy will have to exciting paths to go down - serial killer (he'll get his rocks physically dominating women and then kill them) or, if you have a sensitive boy, he'll put a pistol in his mouth.
Congratulations. Your children will grow up scarred.
And when your child pulls out a shotgun and blasts your tyrannical ass away, you'll be able to have a chance, albeit a short one, to reflect on what possessed him to do it.

Fear. Is. Not. Respect.
When kids were working around here, it was in cotton and woolen mills, or hat and shoe shops. Good places to lose a few fingers. We have Industrial Revolution museums in Lowell and Woonsocket, you might want to check them out and see that there was nothing good about the "good ol' days."
My 2 1/2 year-old niece is learning how to pray. She closes her eyes and puts her hands together, then:
"Little Miss Muffet,
:)
And no, I didn't put her up to it.
How many sick people are commenting on this post? I mean, the belt may be a little too much, but not spanking your child when they disrespect you is terrible for them. It sends them on a downward spiral of failure. You have to be tough with your kids, but fair. But, I'm sure that the New Age parents on this page would disagree, by rewarding their atrocious behavior with a lack of discipline. If they don't respect you, how will they respect the law? How will they respect the cops or judges? How will they respect themselves enough to take care of themselves? Parents should not be accepting to the idleness of the child, they should be conditioning them to function in the real world, something that spanking succeeds at, and rewarding talking back and bad grades with cookies does not.

1st, I must ask - what is "The Pledge"? Polishing the furniture?
watch TV, go out with their friends, and listen to music

I always thought eating junk food, watching TV, hanging with friends and listening to music WAS the real world for a kid. The real world isn't going away any time soon, let them stay kids and enjoy it for as long as they can.
Oh, and even if I'm not American, I'm pretty sure there is a minimum age for going out to work, and 12 isn't quite there. I guess High School is out of the question, then?

To be frank, Mr.Warrior, I know plenty of kids at my school that fit these descriptions, and yet they're usually conservatives. They also happen to act like the stereotypical teenager of this generation.
I don't know what's the matter with kids these days, damn whippersnappers. Hmph!
"You kids are disgusting...hanging around all day...reeking of popcorn and lollipop."____________W.C. Fields
"Unfortunately in today's unGodly times, children can be seen...talking with members of the opposite sex. It's disgusting."
And then when you see a gay boy, you'd call him a faggot and shun him. Make up your mind!
God Bless America
I wonder about some of these Christian totalitarians, really...the phrase "God bless America" owes its popularity to the song of the same name, which was written by Irving Berlin, who was, it should be noted, not Christian .
(He was definitely conservative, though -- but of the old-school variety that refused to use tax loopholes because he was patriotic enough to want to pay his fair share.)
(I also wonder whether you can predict the political tendencies of an American as an adult based on their relative exposure in childhood to "God Bless America" vs. "This Land is Your Land".)

Oh sorry, you caught me just as I'm about to cycle five miles to my local Marks & Spencers to get some salad stuff from their food hall (And pre-packaged & prepared, they're so convenient! With some tuna, they're very tasty), en route to the library to drop off some history and geography books I'd borrowed from there previously. Also to pick up a particular book I'd asked them to reserve for me: "The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence for Evolution" by Richard Dawkins.
After I've read some of said book, I'll have a shower, then repair to bed, prior to getting up to go to work of the next morn. The rent, bills & tax don't pay themselves after all!

1. I knew Grace , she was anazing.

There are these things called words. You should try them sometime. In extreme cases, take away the TV time.
You really don't need more than that.
Oh man, I know ! I mean, if I don't hit my kids, how will they ever learn to respect themselves and other people? And clearly the belt is the best choice; the sting of leather and occasionally metal on their unprotected asses really produces the right mixture of pain, tears and fear that are the hallmark of a healthy home.
</sarcasm>
Ah, look at that; another uneducated fundie who intends to use their stature and comparatively greater strength to compensate for their intellectual inadequacy. Possibly other inadequacies, too.
Also, when your case of patriotism is so severe as to border on insane (and likely jingoism), stop and rethink.
a 12 year old fits nicely into small spaces in mines. I suggest you put your child to work in a mine.
Imagine talking to someone of the opposite sex. hmmm, how did you get a child without talking to a member of the opposite sex ? hand gestures maybe ?
1. I knew grace, she was amazing.
(emph-ass-is added):
"he or she MUST be taught to recite three things:
1) Grace
(And this is the most telling part):
"That is all . "
...meanwhile, on the rest of Planet Reality, kids are getting up, going to school every day, and learning infinitely more important things that'll ensure they will be the ones who'll be on one side of that counter in the fast food establishment.And they won't be on the side of those who'll say 'Do you want fries with that?'
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
