As far as I can tell...
1. father admitted the laptop was his daughter's so... theft
2. father read daughter's facebook page when he was not permitted... invasion of privacy
3. father videos death of laptop... destruction of (daughter's)private property
4. father demonstrates violent tendencies using a firearm to destroy daughter's property... (threat) domestic violence.
Spoken like a true liberal panty waist!!!! I saw this on FB and the first thing I wondered is how long it would be until dad was jailed for "domestic terrorism" (abuse) as soon as someone from CPS saw it and labeled the dad "dangerous, violent, abusive, ect"
That is not to say I think he didn't cross the line with his theatrics... they were still hilarious.. but I do agree that he may have given off the wrong message....
Making the assumption that the daughter is < 18 years of age:
Sorry georg but
Child under the age of majority....
1:Laptop provided for her USE by parent--- not her property!
2:Government is limited by Constitution on this NOT parents!
3:See number 1 above
4:No violent tendencies at all--- not out of control in any way.
I don't know that I'd have made the same exact choices as the Dad here but I stand for his right to make a stand!
Agreed... she is underage, thus cannot technically even own some of that stuff... (ie cell phone and contract, etc..) He most certainly NEEDED to make a stand... because either he wasn't doing his job, or the kid was just out of control.
Sounds like time for some tough love to me...
Thank you...
So children have NO property rights from their PARENTS
AND no privacy rights from their PARENTS
AND no protection against threats by their PARENTS??!!!
How can this be?? What rights do children have??
None.
If my kids ever get to the point where they act as if my monitering their activities is some sort of invasion of privacy, severe consequences will result.
My GF let her kid (14) and his buddy have 2 girls over and they were upstairs in his room watching a movie WITH THE DOOR CLOSED AND UNDER BLANKETS. (this would not have happened with MY kids as I wouldn't even let them bein their rooms with girls, let alone with the door closed although she did say to them "no wet fingers, boys")
So later on, she went to check them and had to knock on the door and ***** foot around and the kid got all indignant with her for interupting them, etc... privacy...waaaaa... I told her if it was me and he acted like a little a-hole to me like that, I would promptly REMOVE THE DOOR and tell him once he learns to be respectful to me and REALLY see what no privacy is like then he can have the door back. Also, girls would be LEAVING as well as buddy and kid would be relegated to his doorless room, get his TV yanked, and be forced to READ A BOOK.
Kids these days have it WAAAAAAAAAAY too easy. TVs, computers, xbox, cell phones... all in their room. They stay in their room all the time and don't interact with the family. THey get pissy when their "privacy" is "invaded"... act like jerks because of the smallest things... Those things are PRIVILEDGES... You don't have a right to cable internet in your room. YOu don't have a right to 40" LCD in your room. You want to bitch and moan and complain about "how bad you have it" well you're about to see how bad it can get.
I have no patience for that kind of disrespect and ungratefulness from children. Not having to work for a single thing in their life, having everything their heart desires, etc... My kid's mother does that to them.... she's getting the oldest (7) a laptop for his birthday. Ridiculous. (hi honey. She reads this forum to get dirt on me) I am going to have my work cut out for me...
