Rickey Smiley For Real - A Real Parenting Moment

I see that paddle Rickey!Just remember this AmeriKKKa. We know he is due for an ass whoopin, just do it OFF camera.
 
whaaa da fuck is up with the uncle buyin

the nephew shoes on the low and letting him

skip school... either his uncle is really young or has ulterior motives....

lil homie saw that beatin coming and was like....

lata nigga...Im out
 
I would cosign the whole approach if it wasnt on tv. Kinda undercuts it and will give the kid a reason to resent it.
 
If he was such a great parent the kid wouldn't be acting up now

Thats his nephew that he took in. Rickey said on his show this morning that the boys uncle and mother, who haven't even been there, are going behind his back telling the kid he can do stuff and bad mouthing Rickey
 
Can tell people in here with no kids lol. Good job Ricky just be easy cause they definitely watching. He gave the right talk, that young man may not get it now, but as he gets older her will understand these talks.

My only issue.....TV...
 
That young man is 18 years old. If you feel that you need to physically discipline him at that age; you failed somewhere prior to this point.

And you would be wrong, kids these days (and if he in my house he is a kid) grow up thinking they are "entitled" just because.....they exist. At 18 I most certainly would have put my hands on him but not to hit him but to drag his "wanna be grown" ass out my house them go collect all his property whether I bought it for him or not and put it on the curb, he 18 the law in EVERY state says at 18 you are an adult and as such your parent are not required to care for you in any way shape form or fashion...PERIOD.

I actually agree with you. However, what you just so eloquently described is not physical discipline.
 
Ricky needs to let that nephew go back to his mother and uncle and wish him the best of luck because at 18 you have live and let go.He doesn't want to go to school it's up too him.

For some the best lesson is being tossed out and fending for themselves;their either going to sink or swim.

I agree family. Especially kids who are privileged, when they have friends who are not. A lot of times the privileged kid will follow the knuckleheads to prove they down, or ain't no different because they come from a little money.

I do have kids. The young man in the video is not a kid. He's an adult, albeit a young adult. There isn't enough ass beatings that his father can give him between now and the time that he is out on his own that will change his perspective on life at this point. If he hasn't learned to make good life decisions from his father by now, he's unfortunately going to end up having to learn it in the real world. Beating him at 18 may make you feel like you've accomplished something, but the fact that you'd have to beat him at 18 really means that you've failed somewhere else along the way.

a lot of parents fuck up tryin to raise their chldren around only other privileged children,
because when they get to high school and college they be in for some rude awakenings..

I dont know Dray while I do understand every child is different..

18 is a little late to be whipping em, maybe a stern talk with fingers to the chest...

but if you still whippin them at 18... something aint right....

I have nephews and neices that be acting up, but when they around me, and get too crazy.. I just give em a look..

and they literally be like UH OH... and silence ensues.....

you cant be whuppin them all their life..

every kid is different and physical moves should at least be a thought in the kids mind so they dont know your range, I think it should be a last resort but should NOT be off the table. (parent to 2 college graduates, and one masters student) I think embarrassment works best though

I respect your point of view, but by 18 I'd be tired of beating ass. At 18 I'm offering ultimatums; either get your shit together and do what you're supposed to do or get out and take care of yourself (since you don't want to listen and think you know everything).

at 18 kick their ass out or get a life insurance policy on them and sign them up for the military

remember you can't get there always kicking a kids ass, they have to earn their way to that, like 3rd or 4th time on the same issue or do something that puts themselves in danger maybe but overall my view on this wasn't just for the 18 yr old, it was a mindset I had a simple moving scale on discipline that worked, start with something the kid loves, and that takes the first hit, after a warning or discussion never both, then if the same thing happens again then do another talk, and move to something else they like/love it was always a sticking point with the wife at the time but there was no limit to what could get pulled if the kid earned it.. that included church / choir type stuff and with dad being a preacher we had many words about it. I told him flat out look you raise yours your way, ill raise mine my way but it only went that far once.

In the end everyone is happy with the results, I think im still a SOB in their minds but I wasn't in it to be their buddy no way.
