80% of British children think hitting your wife is OK if dinner is late

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/scotland/8516387.stm

That and 12 year old girls are still expecting to have to give up their dreams to get married and pop out kids.

Welp.

 

lol.. this is sort of funny..

 

That's bollocks. I live here, and that's bollocks.

 

Well... I mean... If dinner is late...

What's next? No consiquences for unproperly folded laundry? The world would go to hell without discipline.

 

Wow. So if a woman makes a mistake, she is automatically beaten. If a man makes a mistake, what then?
This is ridiculous. Its sad to know that children are already programmed with this logic... that isn't something that is easy to break.

 

If the husband nets a demotion at work because of incompetence resulting in necessary restrictions in the household budget is the wife permitted to use a cast iron skillet to "release the beast" into hubby's skull? Hmmm?

 

Somebody is in a bad mood.

 

I was just imagining some little fucker smacking the shit out of his mum hahahahaha "oi bitch what u fink yor playin at!? wares me fackin fish fingas!?"

 

I hope I never meet this guy in MN, that's a pretty messed up way of thinking.

 

If dinner is late. I don't think the problem is backhanding the missus here, the problem is having set times for dinner. =\
When I was a little growing up, we ate when stuff was done and food was ready. If we ate late something went wrong. We fixed the problem and we ate. It seems the world has gotten itself into a routine. And routines are boring.

 

A lot has been done to make domestic violence unacceptable, at least it is taken as an issue. There is still a long way to go. This research may have been different in some other places.

The title of this thread is FUNNY

 

This sounds about correct.

 

without the stats in front of me nor, seeing how the questions were worded to these kids or, what type of body communcation was given to these kids by the intervewer... would have to say this study is bullshit!:icon_bs:
it is all too easy to twist studies like this.
i smellth something rotten in this u.k. study.:ack2:

that is very sad! I hope those statistics are off.

I was beaten daily by my first husband, if I did even the smallest thing wrong in his eye. so I know how it feels, and damn if my kids think that is ok. I will teach my daughter to not take that , and my son to never hit an woman.

 

My fiance gets the feminist "women are superior" bug up her ass sometimes. Since I am not allowed to hit her, I have to make her cry with words to put her back into her place. I think that is meaner.

 

yeahhhh even in chav land hitting a girl would be considered "dread" or whatever. Sounds like a silly one to me.

 

And remember the Rule of Thumb....You can't beat your woman with a stick that's bigger around than your thumb.

 

Yeah, why would you hit the kids if dinner is late.
