I know there's this big issue out there about whether to spank your kids or not. I don't care how you choose to discipline your kids. I'm just pleading with the parents of today to just take control of their own kids.

While at work yesterday, these 4 punk white boy wanta-bees around 15-17yrs old came into my store. They seemed nice enough no problems, looking to rent some games. When we didn't have the games they wanted they left peacefully. Just about 5 minutes later, they pulled up out front. One ran in, threw down my bubble gum machine and ran out the door. Did I leave out the part where he stopped to smile at me on his way out.

This was clearly an act of just plain disrespect, not terrorisim. Maybe even just a dare, how sad. I know people will yell, you can't control what your kids do when you're not around. Well let me tell you this, if that's what they do when you're not around. What does that say about how the act when you are. When did it become alright to raise your kids with a complete lack of respect for others.

My sons do and did their share of mischievious acts. But I can honestly say that disrepsecting others property wasn't one of them. I spanked my first son, I started spanking my second. Then was shown there were different ways to discipline without the use of violence that were just as affective.

Now I'm not telling anyone how to take control of their kids, or judging the way you do discipline your kids. All I'm asking is that you start disciplining them, and teach them the value of repspecting others and their property. These are the same kids that are going to be running our country in 30 years. Now I know the idiots that are running it now can't fill a hole of dirt without an act of congress.

Don't we want our country to be ran by a better class of people in the future, not worse?
