Wait, do MP3 files even have a URL though? Unless you can upload them here somehow?

I realize this is my second thread here, sue me, I just had to do this. :laugh: What is the craziest thing one of your relatives has ever done? Were you there to witness it in person? Did it effect you in any way? Long story short, me and my Mother use to live in a very nice gated apartment...

Anecdotal evidence really doesn't mean much. I often get told that I'm very polite and mature around adults, and I was never spanked. My Grandmother on the other hand used to slap my Mother and Aunt's around, literally leaving marks on their cheeks, and let's just say that my Aunt isn't known...

I'm trying to create a decent signature and all, however I'm having a bit of trouble. Can anyone tell me the type of link needed to get a [SOUND] tag to work properly? I tried youtube to no avail.

And in one fell swipe, you make all my complaints seem pathetic. ;) But seriously that's rough. Hopefully your far away from that man these days?

So I'm stuck with my Step-Dad for three days all alone. ... ... This is going to be an awkward few days.

The problem with this is that you assume all discipline must be violent. The idea that people who prefer not to use violence as punishment for children simply let their children misbehave and run wild is not true. Certainly I intend to be nothing of the sort.

I realize I'm in the minority on this issue, but I maintain that violence isn't the best way to get a child to behave, nor does it reinforce lasting manners or reinforce things you want the child to learn. Every single study I have ever seen on the subject indicates that positive reinforcement...

I don't like chatrooms, I always feel rushed to post something ~ ! D;

Violence doesn't teach a child to behave, it simply teaches them to fear. Parents should set clear standards, explain to children why they are needed, and then set non-violent punishments on a sliding scale of severity if they misbehave. This way, they aren't doing it because they are in fear of...

Box day! Everyone would be given a large cardboard box and a black marker. They must then make some kind of mount out of it, be it an airplane, car, horse, whatever. They will then be required to sit in/on it and act like a three year old.

Mine was boring, but cram full of much positive realization. :D [/ISOUNDSOLAME] Why was yours so great, if you don't mind me asking? BTW; Montreal is amazing. I've always wanted to visit. >.<

Hmm. Well personally, I believe that sex isn't all that great without a deep relationship with the person. Y'know? Just sleeping around with every Tom and Betty just doesn't appeal to me. That being said, if your in a committed relationship then I see nothing wrong with it. What is marriage? A...

Oh! Oh! I thought of something else, though actually it's a bit mean rather than creepy, perhaps a bit of both. One night when I was at my Grandmas house with my Cousins, we all went outside cause we were bored. So we came up with the brilliant idea to run up to one of the neighbors garages...

And just wish everyone could leave everyone as is? No, seriously, this probably seems like an idiotic discussion thread, but it's a question that's been bothering me for a while. I realize I'm still young, so the use of this word will probably make some older people laugh, but during my...
