I watched a picture: a boy of 7-8 years old jumps into the pool on the heads of passing ladies. Mom sits nearby and is very happy with this behavior of the child. At first, the ladies express displeasure, barely having time to dodge the thirty-kilogram carcass. Mom is having fun. “On a foal,” she explains the actions of a juvenile bully.
On the fifth or sixth “bomb” jump, the weighty kid still hits the target — just like kicking into the brain of a blond girl. The blonde went under the water, but quickly surfaced and screamed at the whole pool. If you remove her obscene words, you might think that she did not say anything. I understand her emotions. Imagine a 30-kilogram weight falls on your head.
The most intelligent person will formulate quickly and briefly his experiences if he comes up. The blonde was not the most intelligent person, so she grabbed the little villain by the ear and pulled him out of the pool. The “on-foal” did not feel any guilt, because his mother did not forbid him to bomb blondes with her knees on the head.
Two intellects met on the steps of the pool: the blonde bruised on the head and the “squeeze”. The latter immediately rushed into the fray, because there is nothing to limit the rights of her child to wild fun in the pool. The “on-foal” already knew how to behave properly: he was yelling like a cut man, showing that he hit his knees painfully on a stupid blond head. «Onazhemat» saved her child by dragging the injured blonde by the hair.
The pool staff ran up and began to separate the fighting pack. Then the “ongeo-father” appeared, judging by the stomach — pregnant in the ninth month. He immediately realized that someone had to be punished. You can’t have a wife and a child, they are your own, you can have a blonde, but she is very fragile, so he hit the pool employee, who was separating the fights. The entire pool joined the disassembly of the incident, no one beat anyone anymore, everyone yelled at each other in unison.
And I remembered Africa.
I was somehow brought into the same tribe on the border of Kenya and Tanzania, people there have not eaten each other for many years, probably thirty or forty, before that everything happened. But the death rate is still high. When at night in the jungle everything champs and screams with terrible voices, it becomes clear that the strong eat the tasty ones. In nature, life is quite simple and understandable. The people living there are part of nature, a tasty part. This is how tigers, leopards, crocodiles think — strong and hungry representatives of the strong part of nature.
I understood a simple truth, the children there do not need to explain anything for a long time, they understand everything from the first time. If adults say — do not jump into this river, crocodiles are waiting for food there, then there are no questions, no one will climb into the river. If a stupid child comes across, it will be a dead child, without any tearful exclamations, “he doesn’t understand!”, “a foal!”.
Yeah, go tell that to the crocodile.
I also remembered America. There, in many states, you can be prosecuted from the age of 12-14. Went to jail, yes, they are. Someone hit a teacher on the head with a hammer for a bad grade, someone raped a classmate, someone was hindered by a neighbor’s car, and a juvenile delinquent set it on fire. «They’re children!» — so the liberal public will exclaim.
A teacher with a hole in his head, I think, will remain silent. I don’t know what a XNUMX-year-old girl who was raped by a black classmate would say.
America is a backward country, it’s like in Africa, if the “colt” didn’t understand something right away, then it can easily go to jail or get a bullet in the forehead. So one twelve-year-old boy decided to play war and began to aim at the policeman with a toy gun. He was shot with a real pistol on the spot. Who are the claims? To the policeman? No, he acted within the law.
If a child at the age of 12 has not understood that it is impossible to aim at the police, then this may be a good boy, but he may become dead. It’s just the way life works: like in Africa.
Let’s go back to the pool. It’s good that the blonde turned out to have a strong head, but another situation is quite real: from a blow with her knees to the back of her head, she could easily lose consciousness and choke. “On the foal” is not guilty, “to press”, most likely, would not have been prosecuted at all or would have gotten off with a suspended sentence.
And a person who went about his business and did not touch anyone will simply not be alive.
Is it right to protect your children? Yes, right. There is only one criterion: if the child’s behavior does not and cannot harm the health and life of other people, then his rights must be defended. Protect from those who take away toys, verbally or physically offend.
If the actions of the child, regardless of age, threaten (or may potentially threaten) the health or life of other people, then it is not necessary to turn on the “press” state and protect your child.
His actions must be stopped. Otherwise, sooner or later, someone else will do it, and the big question is how and in what form.
