An Honorary Spanish Diva, I am

So I rarely watch TV, I really do! Only when I'm in bed and absolutely have nothing else in mind to dedicate my time to. So the only times I turn on the TV and flip channels tend to be on Mondays or Wednesdays (when I'm home in the evening). During those times, I always come across lotsa reality shows.

The one's that I absolutely cannot watch are either "Nanny 911" or "Super Nanny".


The fact that there are kids like this is reason enough to never want to have them. Then again it's mostly the parents at fault for allowing this to occur. These shows make my BLOOD BOIL! I get disgusted at the parent's apathy and lack of disciplinary tactics to their kids. They let them run around and step all over them yet bitch about how they can't control their kids when they don't even try to empower their kids. I'm sorry....but an ASS WHOOPIN' never hurts anyone and gets the point across. I'm no parent, but I was reared by 2 strong Mexican parents who never tolerated disrespectul behavior, especially in public. When I got out of line, I got a whoopin and I learned my lesson, I knew to stop. There's a certain extent to beatings and not all of them constitute as abuse. When you utilize corporal punishment to control a child that fails to cooperate, that's ok discipline. But when u utilize corporal punishment to make every command, then that's just unnecessary abuse. Beating your child when he's screaming his head off when you tell him to shut up is not abuse, he needs to learn his lesson. But if you beat the shit out of your kid because he didn't go to bed on time, then that's something else. Am I making sense here?

Sorry for the ramble...I just can't stand wild children and lazy parents. That's why I can't watch this kind of TV.It's not entertainment to me, it angers me. Thank god I'm never going to be responzible for bringing a child into this world. I'm fine with my baby Chus, the SHih Tzu.
