Anyway, the point is, kids should have a baseline respect for the police. Being encouraged in not having it can result in problems for them later, e.g. resisting arrest when they decide to drive really fast and hide when they see the lights go on behind them after they run a red light.
Are you really whiffing this bad? Blind deference to the authoritarian exercise of power is what led to both the Nazis and the Clintons.

I question authority daily and encourage the youth of my charge to do the same. For Christmas last year I bought each of the homeless kids I mentor a taser gun to protect them from the corrupt cops that hassle them on the streets.

Keep your voice down, don't pull on the branches when picking the fruit, don't get the dog excited. I felt like saying - either relax and shut up or get the hell out of here. Of course, I said nothing.

When I am on an airplane the same thing happens. Don't tease your sister, don't play with your hair. It is the parent that are worried about being embarrased by their kids that bother me. No one (except for freaks like fringey) expect your kids to act like adults so stop trying to get them to act like adults.
You will make a fine mother.

Seriously, given that a good chunk of the posts here are inside jokes that fly over my head, how do we expect to get new people to jump in if they don't have a clue as to what the fuck people are talking about? Yes, they should lurk for a while to figure out what's going on before they post, but if many regulars can't figure it out, how will they? And if every former lurker is assumed by the crowd to be a penske sock (as if he's the only socker, but that's a different story) and is treated as such, that doesn't help, either.

And to forstall the "we don't want anyone new here" response, all of us (well, most of us here currently) were newbies once.
No one was flamed as a newbie as much as me. You people were doing the equivalent of rejecting East of Eden, or ridiculing Hemingway for The Old man and hte Sea. Do you remember that people moked the early Guernica?

And yet I tried to fight back. It's not about me, I know that Paigow.
but maybe, challenging a new person weeds out the weak. Bob we no more need weak new blood than does any eco-system.

I disagree. There are no non-kid places. Public places are public. private places ultimately are by admission by greenback. If the kids have the money to purchase the seats, god bless their little asses. Following that my point is sensibilities are subjective. I find kids by their presence, even annoying kids, less irritating than I find most adults. And its not the fact that the adults are running around and yelling. Its that they are breathing. Some of those annoying kids may feel the same way about you.

The only plane flight or restaurant meal I would truly enjoy would include just me, my chosen guests and the servants (eg: pilot, cook, waiters, as applicable). In fact I had a lovely meal at my club the other night where the only people in the 200 capacity dining room were myself and my date (and the waiter and the sommelier). best.dinner.ever.
I have a couple of non kid places. Spendy restaurants; spas and yoga joints. I also do not care when they enter my dressing room in clothing stores.

I respectfully (OK, not really respectfully) disagree. Not about me being a freak, but about appropriate behavior.

It seriously wouldn't bother you at all if you were at a movie or a nice restaurant, and kids are running around throwing water balloons? Or shooting paint guns?

Spendy restuarants I disagree. As long as they can behave as well as the least behaved adult (whihc may be fringey for all we know. I have yet to dine with her).

Spas.......eh, yes, sort of, although I know a 6 year old who got a swedish massage recently, so my position on that one may be evolving.

yoga.....is there kids' yoga? I don't see why not but you are correct that it should be segregated.

The Outlook for RT is grim

A six year old got a Swedish Massage? That kind of creeps me out. I am not sure if its the blatant wastefulness or the stranger rubbing a kid's body all over or what that troubles me, but, no.

ETA between the socks and the insurgency crap, well, nevermind.
kids should not be encouraged to disregard authority. They WILL have teachers tell them things that make no sense. If they ae taught to not follow authority's direction they will have much greater problems in school. Why? The teacher will be different next year- the county animal man will ne elsewhere next week. Why fuck up your day?

This is true, but itis also true she's not heavy. OTOH since becoming general counsel and thus answering to no one, her cloths are often stained by powdered sugar/jelly/chocolate and the occasional egg yolk by 10AM.

I can't speak for Spanky, but it would bother me no more or less (hi less!) than offensive adults.

And by offensive there is a wide range of sensibility. My sense of sight can be just as offended as my sense of hearing and/or touch.

I would take an unruly kid over having to sit next to and share an armrest with a hygenienically challenged person. Really I would take an unruly kid in the aisles over having to share an armrest with just about anyone.

As a parent, Penske, how wouod you feel about your children wandering in and out of a large house set on two acres inhabited by a single Fortyish man who is at home by himself most of the day typing on the Internet? Would that not trouble you a little in a Michael Jackson kinda way?

Where should I go/ what should I study so I can be a lawyer, you know, the kind just like you are?
