well. . . actually i knew alot of kids who disrespected their maids.
exactly, the "aunty" that can get fired easily if she beats the kids.
FamilyRe: How To Deal With A Maid That Steals by GoldFinch(m): 1:46am On Jul 13, 2008
Aunty my bum

Aunty that the children are allowed to disrespect.

Funny thing is, most children don't respect their maids.

They're even allowed to command the maid.

shior.

Lets be serious here, if I was allowed, then it is no longer stealing now is it?? A child steals simply because he has been told he can't have it. Imagine that village boy, now in the midst of plenty and yet still has nothing. Simple psychology.

My point is simple, a child is a child.
A 12 year old, is a child.
School is no excuse for child abuse.
This is africa, No this is Nigeria. Every houseboy goes to school. But how come you never went to the same kind of schools your houseslaves attended??
No matter how much we try to sugar coat it, he is still being enslaved.
As a 12 year old, I hated doing chores of any kind. All chores were done against my will.

The poster is obviously old enough, why dosent she do those chores herself and collect whatever it is that the boy is being paid.
Ok, my bad,but being a nice person, I was trying to use a nicer word.
Ok, so your parents did not "teach" you the wrongs of stealing.


When I was 12, I had no reason to steal. My mom thought me that I should not always get angry if I don't get all the things I want. Which most of the time, I did get most of the things I wanted grin

But seriously, at 12, the fear of the consequence of stealing was instilled in me.

On the other part, I do agree with you about about the child's enslavement.
At 12, the child should be allowed to be a child not a "man" in a boy's body.
As LadyT said, how can the child change when he's being treated like a paid "servant" instead of a loved child.
Of course he'll continue to do. . . . I mean, the poster herself said flogging won't work.
The only alternative is to show the child love and he'll be ready to learn the wrong in stealing.
The kid is being a kid, he's being rebellious.

But, stealing is still wrong sha.


The only reason gamine is not seeing reason and being a spoilt brat is because she grew up with a maid, therefore she sees no wrong in it.

You ppl are lucky

and here I was afraid of stealing or risk hours of kneeling down and rasing my hands up after some painful beatings.

lucky children! You were allowed to steal when u were just a kid.

Btw, I bet you also lied about not stealing.

RomanceRe: Annoying Pick Up Lines! by GoldFinch(m): 11:57pm On Jul 12, 2008
Yal watch too much television. Texas is not just cows and farms. that is just a small portion of the ENTIRE state. it has cites and sites just like any other place. no one walks around in cow boy boots and stray hats. and besides, we get the same pick up lines the have all over the west coast and the south.
Hmm, actually, I don't watch that much TV.
But thanks for the info.

Anyways, you still didn't answer my question.

What are the pickup lines you get there? embarassed
RomanceRe: Annoying Pick Up Lines! by GoldFinch(m): 11:52pm On Jul 12, 2008

RomanceRe: Annoying Pick Up Lines! by GoldFinch(m): 11:07pm On Jul 12, 2008
Yeah . . . but they know the kind of chicks they call baby queen
It says a lot bout you . . .
Not all the time.
Mostly, a girl is called "African Queen" because she's black

It's either what the dude learned from a friend or what he learned from the media.
Like someone said, the "A bay bay" song.

SCENARIO: Day at the beach.

What more could one want if not for the priceless beauty on earth?
I could not help but to lift my feet up from the soft blanket
And feel the cold sensation of wet sand as my feet sunk unto earth
My frail body shivered as the gentle sway of the wind brushed me by,
Chivalrously, the gentle breeze excused my disturbance as it pushed around my body

I did not, and even if I wanted, I could not prevent the tears that escaped the reservoirs of my eyelids
I was seeing beauty unveil itself right before my eyes
Just as they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Who am I to disagree, when beauty itself dances and seduces me right where am sitting?

With a gentle push on the blanket, my hands anchored my body as a I thrived to stand
My slip dress, as much as it tried, it failed its war agaist the wind
Flapping back and forth, the brown dress followed the wind in whichever direction it was given
Just as I was walking towards the aqua water
I stopped to question myself

What is it that made me smiled?
What is the reason for the joy that filled and overflowed my cup of happiness?
Was it because I felt like a beauty, Like I was beauty itself?
Was is it?

Smiling secretly, I continued on my journey
At last, I finally reached the water,
Not an ounce of regret for the curiosity that ruled and controlled me
I willingly indulged in curiosity itself

With elegance, I bent and cupped my hands to steal a handful of water from mother nature
My tongues tingled at its cold and saltiness
Hmmm,
Something pulled me up and forced my eyes to view the sunset
I laughed, so is this jealousy?
Dear, sunset, what makes you think I did not noticed you?
At the same time my eyes widened in appreciation of the sunset's loveliness.
Red orange ball surrounded by black sinister clouds
What a beauty.

What more could one want if not for this priceless beauty of beaches on earth?

The hairs on my neck stood up as if being pulled to attention.
With a secret chuckle, I knew.
My face turned around to where I was just sitting a mere minute ago.
Only to encounter the eyes of a seducing cat.

With another chuckle, I asked myself again
What more could I want if not for the priceless beauty of beaches on earth?

What more, if not for the man that looks at me like a goddess, and for our innocent baby that he carries so lovingly in his arms?
With this answers, my feet competed against each other as they ran to the cause of my happiness.
