While her methods are extreme, it's still a better alternative than doing what the rest of America does - tell their children mediocrity is fine. No it's not, a person without drive, ambition, and a strong work ethic is truly a waste of oxygen. You have to want to strive for something, you have to want something, otherwise why get up in the morning?
Nowadays, in America, we are breeding a nation of wussies. Where there is no score kept in little league baseball and pop warner football and everyone gets a trophy. How pathetic is that? Better that they learn early on the best way not to lose is to be better prepared than your opponent. best way to never get that sick feeling losing gives you? Simple, don't allow it to happen.

I mean you only get one chance to do it right and you can EASILY fuck it up. Thats how I see it.
Parenting is a skill you probably NEVER master, but have to always stay educated on, and step outside the box now and then to see how your doing, only then, can you make reasonably smart choices to guide your child into making the correct decisions on their own
and as an adult... ![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/rolleyes.gif)

Yes it is soooo easy to fuck up, and the worst thing is, I will almost always take the blame for anything my kid does. Its not easy to raise a kid.
