Father Teaches Daughter Lesson About Facebook

[Gravekeeper]

The question was asked why people kept bringing it up and that was the answer. Neither KnitShoni nor I made any claim that everybody was doing it or that nobody was avoiding it.

So jack brings it up originally, and its a valid opinion, no one talks about it for some odd 10-11 pages before it comes up again. I talk about it again in response to someone else, after stating a couple of times that the circumstances and consequences don't matter as the problem is the method of disciple. Then HYHYBT brings it up again a while later, with valid reasoning honestly, Knit generalizes with "people" to avoid naming anyone I assume. But I guess generalizing is okay now. Then you answer that its because the "people" in question essentially can't handle the real argument despite the fact thats what we've all been discussing.

Got it ;p

I got the impression from watching the video that the "cleaning lady" was in fact, not a cleaning lady at all; just a family friend doing a few favours in return for favours done to her. Therefore, calling this woman a "cleaning lady" is like calling her a servant and is therefore disrespectful. Say your friend drives you to work as a favour and your kid calls them "the chauffeur" or "the help". You might not think that disrespectful, but obviously some people would.

Where does it say that? I didn't get that, but then I didn't watch the whole video either. Just most of it.

We have a lady that cleans the house for us as a favor to treat off some services. She is not – and you will never again refer her as a cleaning lady. That lady works harder in one day than you have ever in your life.

He sounds like one of those idiots who expects his kids to be out of the house at 18. Well sorry pal but unless the econony gets better, that's a damn unrealistic expectation.

Asshole.

And that his kid needs to have Straight A's, along with saving the world, cleaning the house, working all the time and having no social life whatsoever....

Some people expect their kids to be super-son/daughter.

I wonder if he'd be comfortable with his daughter moving out of home, but still relying on him indirectly through taxpayer funded benefits

It's funny, I didn't get that at all from the video. I just got that he wanted his kid to do her chores without complaining in an inappropriate manner like a normal kid would.

without complaining in an inappropriate manner like a normal kid would.

And what would be the appropriate manner because what I get from this guy is that complaining period is wrong.

Not doing it somewhere so public.

Not doing it somewhere so public.

I'd hardly call facebook public. Because, guess what, it's not. Oh, someone might "say" it's public, doesn't mean it.

Public is in the street. Outside of my house. In McDonalds. Something you need to buy a machine with specialized hardware and a further connection to the great world wide web isn't exactly public. It's not 100% private, but it's hardly public.

And once again...if you do not like it, you do not read it. How friggin hard is it to understand that? Don't like it? Don't read it! It's so simple, I have no idea why people throw such headfits over this shit. Did the entire world turn into 9 year olds?

[KnitShoni]

It's on the internet. That's about as public as you can get.

Why should the "If you don't like it, don't read it" apply to parents and children? I wouldn't like reading about my daughter being abused, taking drugs, or wanting to kill herself. Does that mean if she were to post it online, I shouldn't read it because it probably wasn't "meant for me"?

Also...how are you supposed to know you don't like something if you don't at least read part of it?

Facebook is a lot closer to being public than it is private.

He doesn't have to read it. All it takes is the wrong friend or relative or whatever to read it and CPS comes knocking at the door over nothing.

Somehow I get the feeling that someone who shoots up a laptop wouldn't care what the CPS does.

[Gravekeeper]

How many more times must we go over this?

Facebook has privacy controls. My Facebook is not public. You can't get a shred of information about me from it publically. No one can see any of my details, nor any of my posts, nor any posts of my friends or family. Facebook is only as public or as private as you set it to be.

She tried to set this post to be private from her parents and I'm guessing her Facebook page itself is set as private too seeing as it hasn't been dragged out and slathered across the Internet in response to this story. All that matters in this discussion is that she tried to make this private. The fact she failed does not negate her intentions.

Somehow I get the feeling that someone who shoots up a laptop wouldn't care what the CPS does.

Shooting up the laptop in front of the world after a Facebook post gets CPS's attention would likely help their case ;p

[KnitShoni]

How does what someone does to an inanimate object indicate how they would react if CPS were to take their children away?

Facebook owns every single thing you put on that website. Every status update, every note, every picture belongs to facebook. And it's all available to whoever wants to purchase it (Ad companies, the police, etc.) Think you can't be searched because you have it "private"? Nope. If you are tagged in any pictures by someone who isn't you, I just have to go to that picture, click on your name that's tagged and I'm viewing your profile. And that's just one way to access the profile of someone who isn't your friend that you can't view by searching the regular way.
