three prodigies
Prodigies
(1) A first-grader in Pembroke Pines, Fla., was suspended for (allegedly) holding a kitchen knife up to a classmate's nose and stealing his dollar. (2) An 11-yr-old in Estero, Fla., was actually arrested and cuffed for pointing a steak knife at his mother and threatening to kill her (something about "homework"). (3) The 8-yr-old Arizona boy being held for murdering his father and another man last month has given several explanations, but the best IMHO is that the kid kept count of the number of spankings he'd endured in his life, and when the magic "1,000" was reached, his father was going down (but remember now, he's eight; he didn't exactly have a pre-built grasp of numbers when his mother squeezed him out) South Florida Sun-Sentinel /// Naples Daily News /// Arizona Republic

so, by not disciplining my childred, am I hendering their development or ensuring my longevity? (just thought I'd ask some other parents out there)
