    It depends on what the person meant by "punished?" Does that mean spanking, because I don't agree with that. And also, I am curious about what is happening to parenting in China, as they have had the one child rule for so long and it is my understanding that all those only children are really spoiled.

    I'm not so much afraid of such a world as I am annoyed at the thought of it.

    It sounds like a world run by whiny little p *ssies and I'm not afraid of those.

    Yes I do. Our future is a world run by spoiled brats who may just hold their breath if they don't get their way!

    I could ... but at this point I refuse to be afraid of anyone or anything.
