tchalla Many people in jail wish they had a stern parent who hit them from time to time. Being hit does not feel good so a young child who does not understand your wisdom will understand that they do not want to be hit anymore.

tchalla I believe that spanking with your hand is fine. You cannot always reason with a child. They will not always understand why you tell them to do or not do something. But you can teach them to obey. And an open hand spank is just the way to do it. It should not...

Would you report a close family member or friend for child abuse?

debrakcarey @debrakcarey (19887) • United States 29 Jun 09

Even if it meant they'd go to prison or loose their kids? Do you think or abuse laws and programs to protect children are adequate and fair? How about the foster care system...is it corrupt? Or are children safer in a foster home...

tchalla They are not adequate or fair. You could be taking that child out of the frying pan and into the fire. But yes i would report. I'll take that chance. I know the child is being abused where it is, so it could be the same or alot better off somewhere else.

tchalla I love bill cosby. I still watch his show to this day. Anytime you can make people laugh without cussing or insulting someone you have talent. Oh yeah i love Richard Pryor and Chris Rock also. But Bill did it his way and would not change for anyone.

raydene @raydene (9871) • United States 5 May 08

Steven Wright sometimes says something so ordinary and simple but I laugh like crazy. Is it that I expect it to be funny? "I stayed in a really old hotel last night. They sent me a wake-up letter." - Steven...

tchalla I really like John Witherspoon from the "Friday" movies. I've seen him 4 times and bought his Dvd. He is hillarious without being preachy or political. His facial expressions. His wardrobe all fit his style of comedy. He's really good.

tchalla I would POLITELY return it. There is no reason to pay for something you don't like and the waiters and cooks want you to enjoy the food. But do it NICELY! If you offend the people preparing your food you never know what they might do to it. They have feelings...

DanBen @DanBen (346) • India 21 May 09

tchalla No they do not but they don't have too. They know the fanboys who already read the books are going to show. But why would they make the movie the exact same way? If people won't read the comic then they won't see the movie. Thats why they change it up to make...
