Shut Up! It’s Hard To See You
Researchers at John Hopkins University in Baltimore have found that the brain cannot effectively activate visual and auditory input simultaneously. The research was done to measure the benefits of drivers who operate a cell phone with a headset. Professor Steven Yantis, a professor in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences, led the study and said, “Our research helps explain why talking on a cell phone can impair driving performance, even when the driver is using a hands-free device.”
Mama Cruz Would’ve Beat You Back Into The Woods
The 11-year old Boy Scout, Brennan Hawkins, who spent four days lost in the mountains of Utah, was found alive yesterday. Apparently the youngster climbed up the mountain (about 5 miles) rather than following the path of least resistance and heading down. Although Hawkins saw a search party on horse-back days earlier, he says he became afraid and avoided them. Sidebar: Mama Cruz would’ve been elated to find me, and then beat my behind back up into the woods.
Let the MF Burn! Burn, MF Burn!
In 1998 the Supreme Court ruled that the burning of the flag was protected under free-speech laws. Now, there’s a chance Congress will overturn that decision and make the burning of the flag a crime. The amendment would read, “The Congress shall have power to prohibit the physical desecration of the flag of the United States." Although this amendment has come to Congress six times in the past and failed, many believe it has a chance of making it through this time.

hi
I agree with Tammy. I would say give him therapy. Jail would only make him more rebellious and more likely to commit another crime. Our children need more love! We are always so quick to beat them and punish. Why not sit down and talk to them everyday to see what's going on in that brain until waiting for something to happen and then screaming at them.
Don't get me wrong...I'm all for spanking but a lot of times, I think we should talk before hitting. Another thing I have noticed with Americans...we curse at our children like they are adults. Is that language we want them to grow up using?
THE ONLY WAY WE CAN SURVIVE IN A CIVILIZED SOCIETY IS IF THERE ARE RULES. WE HAVE TO BE ACOUNTABLE FOR OUR ACTIONS. YOU CAN'T CONTINUALLY THREATEN TO PUNISH YOUR KID FOR BAD BEHAVIOR. HE/SHE HAS TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR HIS/HER ACTIONS AND YOU HAVE TO MAKE THEM ACCOUNTABLE BY ACTUALLY PUNISHING THEM. WE IN THIS SOCIETY PROVIDE A LITANY OF SOCIAL EXCUSES FOR CRIME AND END UP BREATHING YOUNG CRIMINALS. DO THE CRIME ,DO THE TIME IS WHAT I SAY. RESPONSIBLE BEHAVIOR IS LEARNED BY ENDORSING GOOD VALUES; HOLDING PEOPLE TO THEIR ACTIONS AND PROMOTING ACCOUNTABILITY. IRRESPONSIBLE BEHAVIOR IS ENCOURAGED BY EXCUSING BAD BEHAVIOR THUS NOT PROMOTING AND RESPONSIBILITY. IF YOUR 12 YEAR OLD STABS SOMEBODY HE NEED TO BE REMOVED FROM CIVILITY EVEN IF THE CONSEQUENCE IF HE GET TORN A "NEW BUTT HOLE" IN JAIL.
First, punish the little monster.
If responsible (directly) punish the parent.
