“Why do we put up with parents who take absolutely no responsibility for raising their kids? Why do we allow parents to absolutely destroy the chances of their kids ever being successful in this society? How do you inject personal responsibility as a requirement into the system and not just an ideal”

Because parenting is subjective - Lindsey Smith
Totally ignoring your two kids while talking on your cell phone, letting the girl run a shopping cart into whatever and allowing the little boy (in pajamas no less) just sit there and scream at the top of his lungs, is a complete lack of parenting. That isn't subjective. - Alex Scoble CISSP
People are too polite to butt in on people's parenting (or lack of). - Rochelle
I would agree. But to them . . . I'm sure they would disagree. - Lindsey Smith
Because the function required in creating a child has been so degraded by society as either an evil never to be discussed or something treated with reckless abandon that a disconnect has occurred between cause and effect. The ideas of parenting that has been glamorized by all sectors, glosses over the 'work' that is required... and some people are just fuckstains... - John Worthington
" How do you inject personal responsibility as a requirement into the system and not just an ideal?” - guilt - MikeAmundsen
I hate bad parenting! - ♥Brandy Lea Photography♥
But Alex, kids need rich experiences, to be able to explore and imagine. Put boundaries on them too early and you'll stunt them for life ;-) - £ogical €xtremes
this post could be about wall street brokers - Gregory Lent
I'm sorry but the US is WAY too lax on children. To paraphrase Denis Leary, "my parents beat the shit out of me when I was a kid and I'm looking forward to beating the shit out of my kids". Children need discipline. End of story. Where I grew up, I never heard of kids shooting guns or getting shot. Having a death penalty for gun possession kind of puts a damper on that. - Leather Donut
Alex- you're completely right. My daughter was nearly beaten up by an older kid at the park and his mother could have intervened but she was too busy chatting about her nail polish on her cell. When I talked harshly to him, he seemed shocked- like nobody had ever told him what to do before. His mother never even looked up or over at us. Ridiculous. - Abby Martin
It's not that we wish to put up with it. We're just too polite to say anything. - Morton Fox
the problem is this: how would you propose to make sure parents CAN control their kids? we can't exactly make vasectomies mandatory - gov't would abuse it - Michael J. Cohen (mjc)
I get head shakes and dirty looks when I discipline my kids in public. By 'discipline', I mean "don't run around the sidewalk" or "sit up straight". Happened 3 times today. Told my son to stop standing in the middle of the staircase. Dirty looks. Assholes. - Anika Malone
This all started when people started getting in trouble for whoopin that ass in public, but seriously, your kids should have a certain amount of fear/respect for you as a parent. A lot of kids I see these days do not have this at all and it's only the "parents" fault. Once again, I point to the Dog Whisperer to illustrate the point further :) - Rah™
Yup, MJC, that is the million dollar question. How do we compel parents to be responsible without resorting to Big Brother Government, which quite frankly doesn't do a good job of parenting kids in its care either? Perhaps we as a nation need to start getting more assertive "excuse me ma'am, but you need to take care of your kids, this is a public place." I should have tried that...but I'm a wuss. - Alex Scoble CISSP
Rah, agreed. Parents want to be friends with their kids, not act as a parent of the kid. - Rochelle
rah, we should make a baby. kids and dogs just want someone to be in charge. If you aren't, they will be. - Kaia ♥s Seitan.
Agreed, a lack of parenting harms the kids forever, sort of dooms their future. Plus it's rude and annoying to the rest of us. - Mike Reynolds
It's a vicious cycle that I'm not sure can be corrected unless we stop letting bad parents have kids, which is damn near impossible. - Rah™
Actually, if we could make our schools not suck so bad, that would be a step in the right direction. Seems like those same sucky parents are the ones teaching everyone else's kids too...lol - Rah™
Unfortunately, the NUMBER ONE contributor to a child's success in school is...PARENT PARTICIPATION! - Alex Scoble CISSP
If people wanting to have children had to undergo the same process as people wanting to adopt, there would be a far fewer cruddy parents and fewer children too. - Kevin Devin
+10,000 Kevin - Alex Scoble CISSP
True, if the parents gave a rat's ass...the schools probably wouldn't be able to get away with sucking so horribly. - Rah™
I hate bad parenting, too. I'm doing my part by not having children. Don't thank me; it's my civic duty. - MiniMage LightBlueRanger
This is one topic I'll be writing about in my blog. - Nick Humphries
This is something I'm passionate about. I see way too many parents who simply don't participate in the lives of their children, others who treat them like luggage and those that fail to understand that THEY are in charge of raising their children. Parenting seems to be looked upon as something to fit into a schedule and look out if it gets in the way of a social life! Grow up and take responsibility. If you don't want to be a parent, don't have the kids. If you do, shut up and *be a parent*. - AJ Kohn

many dislike this movie. i am of the 'really-liked-it-alot' camp. Aronofsky has all the makings of a great film maker. I look forward to The Wrestler, The Fighter and Robocop. - Carlos Ayala
soundtrack > movie - embee
Disliked? I'm surprised. I absolutely loved it. - JMakesAwesomeSauce
I liked it a lot. I was an Aronofsky fan before watching it so that was a factor. I loved Pi and Requiem for a Dream. - Rodfather
@embee Clint Mansell and Kronos Quartet strike again like they did in Pi and Req. @JMS, i think that most didnt get it so (profit-wise) it was a bust. even the critics are torn. that being said, it did go on to win a ton of awards globally. @Rodfather Pi and Requiem are two of my faves. - Carlos Ayala
I also loved Pi. Haven't see Requiem, but it's on my must see list now. Checked out The Painted Veil for tonight. - JMakesAwesomeSauce
I was expecting very good things from this but ended up underwhelmed. Worth a watch, but not as good as pi/requiem - David Miller
That was Kronos? That I didn't know. No wonder I loved the music so much. - JMakesAwesomeSauce
Fountain was Clint Mansell, Requiem was Kronos - embee
Yes Kronos in Req and the Fountain, not Pi. - Carlos Ayala
Ugh...that movie was boring...We kept waiting for it to get better and it never did. I recommend whenever people ask that it's completely missable. - Alex Scoble CISSP
You thought it was boring?! Looks like this was one of those movies that people either really liked or really didn't. Interesting. - JMakesAwesomeSauce
I thought it was interesting but I guess I just didn't get it. I'd watch it again if I was given a brief rundown and what the heck happened. Visual stunning movie though, brilliant - Kol Tregaskes
Clint Mansell is great, the music from Req is incredible! - Kol Tregaskes
It covered the past, present, and future. In every period, the man was seeking to keep the female alive because of his great love for her (or the country in the case of the past.) - JMakesAwesomeSauce
I thought it was awesome -- had to watch it twice to start to actually understand it,though. - Alix Whitmire ƸӜƷ
It's not even past, present and future...There's one storyline that is real, one that's part of a book and the "future" plot thing, I don't know what the heck that was. Oh and it didn't have a happy ending, which is definitely a turn off moviewise for me. - Alex Scoble CISSP
It's a top 5 for me. :) -- @alex ... what do you mean... the ending was certainly happy... just a different level of understanding. ;) - Brandon
His wife dies...hardly a happy way to end a movie. - Alex Scoble CISSP
Well, no reason to see it now. :-/ - Joe the Plumber
Some movies don't need happy endings to be good. Makes them more real. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
So still confused by what the film was trying to tell me, lol. I must watch it again some time. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
I don't think it's that clear cut. One can interpret it as three separate plots, or as actual continuous history (if the Tree of Life is real.) I'm a big fan of the tragic ending, although it can be argued that reaching enlightenment, and coming to terms with and accepting the necessity of death is not necessarily tragic. - Victor Ganata
One of my favorite films of 2006. It did polarize critics and audiences, though - definitely a love it or hate it kind of film. My theory - it's a right-brain film, and people who try to make it fit into logical left-brain categories are going to be disappointed, because it doesn't. Now I want to rewatch. - Jandy Stone
Great movie. I suppose the movie is hard to understand for some, though. - Alejandro S.
I thought the movie was magnificently made. - Andrew Trinh
Agree, soundtrack > movie - Nick Humphries
I really like that movie! I've seen it 3 times already. - Joe Cook
Kol, in my book, almost without exception (Reservoir Dogs being one) a movie REQUIRES a happy ending to be good. I don't see movies to see something REAL. I see movies to be entertained and enriched. To feel better about the world than when I went in. Obviously this is my opinion, but it's one that I've found to be true for me. - Alex Scoble CISSP
Didn't care for Fountain myself (despite really wanting to). I don't like movies that are incomprehensible upon a single viewing - it's one thing to be "clever" (Usual Suspects, etc), it's another to leave a viewer bewildered wondering what they saw. - Jeremy Toeman
@alex people may die but [something] of/about them lives on ... that was the repeated theme in the movie. Also, the acceptance that, 'you too are going to die'. - Brandon
Face it, this is an "elitist" type movie. If you were an English major, if you like digging around symbolism and allusion as if you were writing a term paper, if you like to talk about things like "tropes" and "themes", then this is a great movie. If you just wanted to have a good time and like straight-forward storylines, not so much. - Victor Ganata
Alex, I understand that most people like happy endings but I'm good either way, so long as I enjoy the movie that's all that matters. - Kol Tregaskes
Yup, one person's brie is another person's stinky feet. - Alex Scoble CISSP
@victor Your inability to enjoy a movie does not make someone who can -- an elitist. Many people enjoy movies that don't follow a traditional story line. You don't, you find comfort in movies with a predictable story line. The idea that some people are elitist because they enjoy reflection is just an animadversion. - Brandon
A graphic novel based on the movie was published: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T...) (warning, the Wikipedia entry basically recaps the whole story, so if you don't want spoilers, beware). I guess the first time they tried to make the movie, production ran into issues. The graphic novel was a way to "salvage" the project, but the movie ended up being produced after all. I'm quite interested to see the movie myself. I'm no elitist English major, but I do like a complex movie sometimes. - Cheryl Jones

I've kept such a small notebook on my travels for a long time. But something happened along about last fall, nearly a year ago. I started mobile photo blogging. I learned that qwerty on a phone is a mobile blogger's best friend. I learned how to use Utterz if I was in a hurry and could not stop to type what I was thinking. I learned that I could take a picture of the signs in the parking field to remind me of where I parked. So I stopped using the notebook about a year ago. I have not missed it. - Tink *~*~*

I've been waiting for someone to articulate why first time DSLR buyers should not go straight for the top end cameras. I think it also depends on what you're doing with your camera as well. I'm still on an XT because it still meets all my needs. I also recommend "Understanding Exposure" by Bryan Peterson to all newbies. I still read it two years after purchasing it. - Andre Maltais
I believe that it's the marketing that gets folks all amped up about 'needing' the better dSLRs. If Ashton can take photos with that big Nikon, then it's gotta be easy! But, that's what marketing is for, no? A basic understanding of how the exposure can be controlled is essential... most of these new mid-class bodies don't come with the green 'auto' setting that calculates everything for you. - Neil Bernhart
I have a Nikon D70 and really want the D700 because of the higher ISO sensitivity. I shoot in Aperture priority most of the time and frequently in lower light. The improvements in megapixels and light sensitivity are the features driving me to upgrade. - Rod Bauer via twhirl
He makes a great point, I frequently hear..."I only have xyz camera" as an excuse for mediocre images when the shortcomings are not in the hardware. That said, as an experienced shooter, I am intrigued by the new 5D II and might buy one but not because of the hype - Rick Bucich via twhirl
