I have a boy and I consciously work to raise him as respectful and kind. I expect the best from him as much as I expect the best for him. His school recently participated in an Anti-Bullying commitment and I was so proud that they did. Bullying — cyber or IRL — hurts everyone. This includes the bully. I think sometimes parents are so relieved that their child is not the bully that they don’t realize the damage left in the wake of their child BEING the bully. I think the last comment got it right — follow the Golden Rule!

I find all people fascinating and we can learn from each other. Why are people so freakin’ mean?? Geez.

Love your honesty.

This is a great post too. I do give good comments, I believe, though not always immediately. That’s to say, I’m sorry for my delayed visit. You are a compassionate and wise woman. I loved your additions to the list on my blog, too.

Teaching history in a selective way starts to become propaganda and indoctrination. It’s true though that the winners/conquerors typically get to write the history.

maybe it should be “asses will be asses” – “and oh by the way may I kick yours?”
Unknown Mami said it well.

I watched a documentary with folks who had lived in Japanese internment camps. It was mind boggling. It’s like this dirty little secret we don’t acknowledge in this country. Also? Our treatment of Native Americans and stealing their children away to force them into school to “tame” them. There is a Native American College close to where I went to undergrad and I learned so much about our history from them. How families and children were tortured and separated. Awful.

And the boys will be boys thing gets me every time. For that matter, I really don’t understand the toelrance of any kind of unkind behavior at all. I was going to post about this later this week as a response a teacher at my son’s daycare/pre-K said yesterday. I may not be a perfect parent, but I teach my kid to be kind. to be helpful and respectful. anything else is an opportunity to teach him empathy and how hurtful choices affect others. Allowing children to hurt others robs them of the chance to grow into empathetic, helping, responsible citizens. (stepping off my soapbox now….)
Best,
Tina

Makes me crazy how many times I hear that from parents these days! I wanna say in return, “No. Your boy’s just being an ass!”

Not a whole lot is said. You’re lucky if it’s a sentence in your history book. What surprised me growing up is that there was one located on the grounds of Sherman’s Nursery where I used to run and around and play all the time. Kind of freaks me out when I think about it.

I went and visited them and they were great posts! These boys will be boys or girls will be girls statements drives me fricken insane with anger. I cannot stand when anyone makes statements like that. I loved these posts and your comments…good job!

Hope you got good news at the docs today. Still praying. XX

Yes, we should all be of one race…human. Brothers and sisters in Christ. We should be blind to skin color or any other racial discrimination. If we would keep that in mind we would treat others kind at all times.

You go girl and tell it like it is!!! :o)

Ya’ll have a most wonderfully blessed ‘fall’ day!!!

I try to instill this in my kids every day. One of these days I hope they will.

I have watched social media, blogs, twitter, and facebook do amazing great works, bring light to areas that needed and unconditional out pouring of support for real situations. Unfortunately last week brought me to a breaking point where it just seemed everyone was so proud to be the nastiest or meanest person out there. At what point was that the goal in life. I can sling an insult over my keyboard with the best of them, to really stick my point. Not worth it, not worth it at all. I would rather try to be a decent human and respect others views even when I don’t agree. Easier to sleep at night. One day my children might read what I have said and done, I don’t want to leave a legacy of hate for them.

I, too, hate that boys will be boys saying. It just takes away any accountability for parents and for the child.

The response you got back from Sometimes it’s Not Easy Being Peachy is a good one. It seems lately to me that it is harder and harder to find people that treat others like they would want to be treated.
