How do you know he was about to criticize her? That's all I'm asking. I admitted to not knowing, but you haven't. Her slapping his hand away was rude. Yeah, I get it, the olympics etc. But this my opinion wasn't just about her coach interaction, it was about her attitude as a whole. A bad attitude and bad…

Yes, it sucks to get silver instead of gold. I mean, I'm not saying she didn't have to be upset, but being cold to her coaches, sour to her competitors in some instances— just bad sportsmanship all around is what made me dislike her personality, not her toughness and perseverance.

Fuck you, I'm not your "baby" and I would appreciate it if you didn't call me that sexist shit. Get over yourself, I get it. Sorry if you don't believe me but I've got nothing to explain to you.

And how do you know he was about to criticize her? Exactly! You don't. His body language read that he felt bad for her, but how do I know? I don't! My point being that it was still rude and childish, at least to me.

Man when she shoved off her coach I was pretty angry, he was just trying to console her. We've all been in that position where we have been so angry we push people away, but this is the person she's been shedding blood, sweat, and tears with nearly her whole life. Gah.

It was during the team finals, I think all of them did.

I was watching the men's foil (when the USA made that awesome comeback against France) and they seemed very polite to each other. All that screaming though @_@

Is she a diva? No.

Oh Mittens, you slay me!

I said before I don't have children, but when I was six I didn't have any ipods or fun things to do with friends to take away. :)

I'm not saying hitting helps or does not help — I'm just saying that "I don't hit my kids and they are a little angel!" is a silly point in this debate.

I think the reason why spanking stops after certain ages is because sometimes you can't explain things to children. You can't explain to them that doing this is wrong — so when you can't use words you usually use something that they know is negative to show them that it is wrong. When kids get older you can actually…

"I think that's super creepy"

Have you ever watched Super Nanny? She used this technique, sans-spanking.

I don't believe in spanking my own children (I don't have any, anyway, but that could change once I actually have them) but I think this is a good point. What people seem to be condemning is the act of hitting your child out of anger or frustration — but calmly telling them why they are about to spank them in a very…

Now that I've gotten that out of the way, I have to say that honestly, I don't believe in spanking myself, but when I see people automatically dismissing those who say they were and turned out fine, I think— How do you judge if they turned out fine or not? Maybe they really DID turn out fine. Maybe they really are…

And let the wank begin!

Cons are great ways to meet friends who are in to the same stuff you are. But at the same time, sadly, it is rampant with sexual harassment.

But what about when Juliet's mother says to her, "Other girls your age have already been made mothers." ?
