WHEN YOU HEAR ABOUT PEOPLE DOING
VIOLENT AND CRAZY THINGS IN THIS
WORLD, DO YOU EVER WONDER WHO
RAISED THESE [ BLEEP ] LUNATICS.
I HAVE A SON AND I HAVE NO IDEA
IF I'M MESSING HIM UP OR NOT.
I HAVE NO IDEA IF I SHOULD
DISCIPLINE HIM OR IGNORE HIM
LIKE MY 21-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER.
I TURN TO THE INTERNET FOR
ANSWERS, AND WHAT I FOUND WAS A
VIRAL CELEBRITY WHO IS PROMISING
TO MAKE PARENTING GREAT AGAIN.
TAKE A LOOK.
>> ALL THE BEST PARENTS AGREE
THAT THIS GENERATION OF
PARTICIPATION TROPHY KIDS IS A
BUNCH OF SPOILED BRATS.
WHAT THEY DON'T AGREE ON IS WHAT
TO [ BLEEP ] DO ABOUT IT.
ONE MAN IS NOT GOING TO SIT BACK
AND WATCH THE NATION BECAME A
SLACKER NATION.
>> A MAN WHO IS OFFERING TO
SPANK MISBEHAVING KIDS.
>> I SAT DOWN TO TALK TO DWAYNE
SANDERS.
>> KPARENTS TODAY ARE MORE
WORRIED ABOUT BEING THEIR BEST
FRIEND THAN THEIR PARENTS.
>> WHY HAVE YOU BECOME A
SPOKESPERSON FOR BUTT WHOOPINGS.
>> THERE ARE NO BOOKS ON
PARENTS.
>> WELL, ACTUALLY --
>> I RUN A BUSINESS CALLED
POSITIVE PARENTING.
>> SPANKING OR NO?
>> NO.
ABSOLUTELY NOT.
>> HE HAS A STAND, FREE
ASS-W
ASS-WHOOPINGS.
>> KIDS NEED LOVE AND GUIDANCE.
THEY NEED TO BE SEEN, HEARD AND
UNDERSTOOD.
>> THEY SEEM LIKE A BUNCH OF
NEEDY [ BLEEP ].
WOULD YOU SMACK A BABY.
>> THERE WAS A QUITE A STUDY
DONE BY ALICE MILLER.
>> OH, GOD.
>> AND OBEDIENCE TO AUTHORITY AS
VIOLENCE.
>> SO HITLER KILLED THE JEWS
BECAUSE HE WAS SMACKED?
>> YOU HAVE A SCHOOL WITH FOUR
PADDLES, AND YOU HAVE ANOTHER
SCHOOL SET UP IN TODAY'S
SOCIETY.
THIS SCHOOL WITH THE PADDLES
WOULD HAVE HIGHER GRADES AND
HIGHER GRADUATION RATES.
>> THAT MAY WORK FOR A SCHOLAR
LIKE DWAYNE, THE REST OF US
SHOULD PROBABLY RELY ON ACTUAL
STATISTICS.
>> CHILDREN WHO ARE SPANKED ARE
MORE LIKELY TO DEFY PARENTS,
HAVE MORE AGGRESSION AND MENTAL
HEALTH PROBLEMS.
>> I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE HELPFUL
TO SEE WHICH PARENTING STYLE
GETS BETTER RESULTS AGAINST A
MISBEHAVING 10-YEAR-OLD JIM
JEFFRIES.
>> [ BLEEP ] YOU MOM.
>> OUCH!
THAT HURTS.
>> WELL, YOU [ BLEEP ] DESERVE
IT.
I DON'T WANT TO GO TO SCHOOL.
>> YOU NEED A MENTAL HEALTH DAY,
IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE SAY
SOMETHING.
>> [ BLEEP ] THAT.
>> NOW I'M GOING TO WHOOP YOU.
>> YEAH, THAT GETS YOUR
ATTENTION.
>> THE NEXT TIME YOU WOULD
LISTEN, RIGHT?
>> I WAS DELIGHTFUL BEFORE HE
GOT MEDIEVAL ON MY BUM.
ARE YOUR CHILDREN GROWN?
>> YEAH.
>> DO THEY RESENT YOU IN ANYWAY?
>> MY DAUGHTER NEVER GOT A
WHOOPING.
MY SON REMEMBERS ONE TIME.
I SCARED HIM TO THE POINT WHERE
I SAID, OKAY, I'LL SHOW YOU.
HE HAS A SOON TO BE 2-YEAR-OLD,
HE BELIEVES IN WHOOPINGS.
I ONCE SMACKED MY DAUGHTER, SHE
SAID SOMETHING.
I DON'T KNOW, KEPT
DISRESPECTING, I SMACKED HER.
>> RIGHT.
>> MY DAUGHTER NEVER GOT A
WHOOPING.
>> BUT TO BE FAIR, I WONDER HOW
OUR PARENTING EXPERTS KIDS
TURNED OUT.
>> MY DAUGHTER CALLS ME FOR
ADVICE ALL THE TIME, IT AMAZES
ME, I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'RE
CALLING ME FOR ADVICE, SHE'S
SUCH A BETTER MOM THAN I EVER
WAS.
I HAVE THREE ADULT KIDS AND NONE
OF THEM HAVE TV'S.
>> YOU BANNED YOUR KIDS FROM
TV'S.
>> I DIDN'T TELL THEM NOT TO.
I DIDN'T HAVE A TV IN MY HOUSE.
>> YOU DIDN'T HAVE A TV?
>> EWW.
>> I TELL MY SON, WATCH
TELEVISION.
IT'S THE MOST WONDERFUL
INVENTION IN THE WORLD.
>> SINCE YOU DON'T WATCH TV, I
GUESS IT COULD BE SUMMED UP VERY
EASY, RIGHT?
YOU TAKE THE GOOD, YOU TAKE THE
BAD, YOU TAKE THE REST AND THEN
YOU HAVE, YOU KNOW, "THE FACTS
OF LIFE."
>> RIGHT, AND YOU AS A PARENT
ARE TAKING WHAT YOU LIKE ABOUT
WHAT YOUR PARENTS DID AND USING
THAT.
>> WELL, THE WORLD DOESN'T MOVE
TO THE BEAT OF JUST ONE DRUM.
WHAT MIGHT BE RIGHT FOR ONE, MAY
NOT BE RIGHT FOR SOME.
>> SOMETIMES PEOPLE COME FROM
TWO DIFFERENT BACKGROUNDS AND
THEY DON'T AGREE, AND THEY FIGHT
ABOUT THE PARENTING.
>> AT THE END OF THE DAY, THERE
HAS TO BE A MIDDLE GROUND OR
HAVE A KID THAT DOESN'T
[ BLEEP ] WATCH TV.
ONE THING THAT IS CLEAR, PARENTS
ARE PUSHED TO THEIR LIMITS, AND
I FEEL LIKE WE'RE ALL DOING THE
BEST WE CAN.
MAKING YOUR WAY IN THE WORLD
TODAY TAKES EVERYTHING YOU GOT?
YOU'RE SOMEWHERE WHERE EVERYBODY
KNOWS YOUR NAME, AND THEY'RE
REALLY GLAD YOU CAME.
