When my grandson was about 12 I threanened him with a spanking for some infraction ( can`t remember what now) and he said he would turn me in for child abuse !!  I grabbed his arm and wore his butt out, then turned him loose and said, go call them !!  Thats the last I heard about child abuse from him !! Also had a run in with a lady in front of me at Burger King,, Had two kids fighting in the seat of a small Nissan PU, I raised my hand and threatened to put them out and make them walk rest of the way home, 1/2 mile, Lady saw me and got out of her vehicle at the drive through window, came back and said she would call the sherriff !! I told her the best thing she could do was get back in her car and mind her own business !!  ( I used to babysit the sherriffs kids) and he was a good friend !! I went home and called him myself,, told him what happened,, he said I guess she would have liked it better if you had a wreck from those two fighting !!

Hahahahaha! Yes, parents live in fear of their children these days. It's sad. I'm only 26 and have no kids yet, but if I do have them they'll know discipline and personal accountability, that's for sure. I weep for the future :/

Which way are the kids going these days? What are they really learning? And No fear

Almost nothing. Danbury Mint? They're not as detailed as Franklin Mint with their cars. It's cheap Chinese junk.

For your entertainment, there was a sticker on it for $26.99 and it sold for $17.50 with 10% auction premium. Not a good deal. I am interested in real American products not fake chinesse replicas.

Thanks everyone for their help.
