Quote:yeah, the little boy should be punished because he is upset (which was deliberately made to happen by his father.) another TMD classic. further evidence that you arent qualified to do anything besides slave away behind the hot glowing fryolator.   

 

yes, way to talk about what we were discussing.  

 

But just for the sake of discussion, the little boy should have been punished for hitting the camera, twice. You're essentially enabling bad behavior and avoiding the lesson of personal responsibility by putting 100% of the blame for the boy's actions on the adult. Do I think the father was needlessly egging the kid on? Sure...and he gets blame for that, but what kind of message are you sending by inferring that its okay to act out, throw tantrums and potential cause destruction/ damage as long as someone else ticks you off?? Which is what essentially happened here.
