If I ever have a kid I feel like just telling the school faculty if my son/daughter acts up to skip any warning and just german suplex him/her when they least expect it like at the water fountain or something.

I would say kids were far more entitled back in the day then they are now. In the 80's and 90's you could get a decent job without going to college or even graduating from High School. You could basically do whatever you wanted. Look at the job market for young people who don't have college degrees now. Hell, look at the job market for young people who do have college degrees. It's bleak as hell out there. The number of kids with college degrees, even degrees in practical fields, and yet can't find a job, is higher than ever. The cost for college is higher than ever. The difficulty of getting into a college even if you can afford it, is higher than ever. I've read statistics that state that the amount of work the average high school student is expected to do in an average course is higher now than it was before. There's more homework. Everything is more expensive than ever before, schools have less money than ever before, etc.
I don't really see how anyone can make the argument that the kids of this generation have to work less to achieve whatever it is they want. I'd say it's the opposite. It totally sucks to be a kid right now. Thanks a lot, baby boomers.
Typical of your generation, bitching, crying and feelings of self entitlement. "Waahhh, I deserve a job! Waaahh!". That and bad music, you Coldplay ******.

I have a job.
I just had to work far harder to get it than you would have had to when you were my age, back in the triassic period.

Filling out an application isn't considered hard, well maybe for your self entitled generation "Wahh! I have to apply for a job to get one!? Waaahh!"

Rob had to suck a dick just to get an application for a job sucking dicks.
He always had it the hard way.

My first real job was at Burger King when I was 15, can't imagine sucking dicks could be worse than that shitpit.

I'd also point out that, if you spank your child, you are doing it for your own benefit, not the kids. You might not be doing identifiable harm to the child (though this is debatable), but you are certainly doing no good, and in terms of learning and behavioural manipulation, punishment of that nature are among the least effective ways to motivate any type of organism to do what you want them to.
Counselors that teach "correct" spanking methods at least seem to focus on the fact that is one aspect to be avoided: spanking out of anger.
Regardless, sending kids to their room to play video games and text certainly isn't adequate punishment either.

That's kind of irrelevant. Research going back to Skinner is pretty clear that punishment is factually less effective than other training methods. Rewarding a kid for actively good behavior will do more than punishing them for bad behavior.

Nah, the problem was that I wasn't the only one who filled out an application that day. I had to compete with 4 40-year old men with masters degrees for that job. Only got it after slaughtering each of them one by one in Mortal Kombat and offering up their soul as tribute to the hiring manager.

Wouldn't have worked for me.
Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Do you plan to have children? If you do, do you think they'll grow up with too much of a sense of entitlement? Or rather, what would you do to make sure that they do not grow up like that?
Is timeout okay? What about privilege deprivation?

I think the kid has some mental retardation or he's a special child.
