Mom kicks her kid out for voting for Trump in school

I did some CBT research and couldn't agree with you more. It is very powerful, not a panacea but definitely should be basic learning. It is very interesting when you add what you know about spiritual warfare and how it occurs in the mind at a high level.

Somewhere, I have a short paper on the implications of the Spiritual application of REBT. I'll see if I can find it.

What this mom did to her son will have long reaching effects. She created a neuralpathhway in his brain that will come out sideways in the future. She damaged his development and ability to relate to a future wife or friends and herself. She betrayed that poor kids trust and ruined a piece of his innocence.

The sad part is, most people don't think how their words or actions affect other people and so they continue doing so. It's human nature which is unfortunate especially when it is done towards children whose brains cannot comprehend such cruelty

I don't think she should have her kids taken away but she should be forced to take and graduate from parenting classes. And she needs to apologize to that boy for her behavior and seek his forgiveness.

She is actually emotionally ill. As so many of this Entitlement Generation are. So, until she can comprehend the horrible destructiveness of her actions, she will be totally unable to empathize at all.

I get the feeling that she was replicating behavior down the family tree. It's pretty much the same with all abuse.

Yes. This is the downward spiraling cycle our nation must learn to combat. Can we do it without God? I doubt it.

True, indeed. See my post # 105, above.

Went on a hunting trip this weekend and while I was out in the vast expanse of Montana without the hustle and bustle I asked myself...what would I have done if my son voted for Hillary. And this is exactly what I would have done. I would have asked him what he liked about her...and what he said would have determined my follow up questions. I would not have judged him and I would have left it at that. The reason is because children need parents they can trust. It's really that simple. So anything thing you say to your child should have that in mind. Openness and the ability to express ideas without being castigated for them is trust building. And believe it or not, I on occasion give my boy the floor to critique my parenting and he can say whatever is in his heart without fear from any kind of judgement or emotional retribution from me....and on top of that, I adjust myself when he has a legit criticism.

She is talking about her inability to acknowledge the seriousness of the abuse this mother in question perpetrated upon her child's well being, as well as completely ignoring the seriousness of many of the responses, in favor of her pretense that mocking is the order of the day.

This bullet flashes like a neon sign:
4. Continue to act in the new ways despite the fact they feel uncomfortable and not “really me,” until they do become quite comfortable and second nature. Remember, people don’t feel comfortable and confident when they start any new behavior, for example riding a bicycle. Comfort and confidence come after successful practice, not before!

 

[Willie-T]

I don't know what it is like elsewhere, but down here kids and youths are acting better now than they did when I was a kid. Today kids are polite and well behaving, and the criminals are for a big part not born here. Maybe deporting illegal aliens isn't that bad after all.

Your Profile is rather cryptic. Where is "down here?"

so in other words she thinks what we are saying is psychobabble?

It seems she thinks she can dismiss the seriousness of the thread by mischaracterizing it.
