That's I why I support these changes as one part of a suite of tools to help parents. You really are thick as f**k. The easy read executive summary I posted there clearly isn't the entirety of the body of work. You will have noticed my cut and paste has citations in it which the casual reader would assume would link to the primary studies on the efficacy of legislation in changing attitudes. Even if you didn't grasp that the text itself states that the studies took place across numerous comparator sites so your "correlation =/= causation" statement is bollocks. I admire your confidence though in dismissing an international study of academic work by the WHO, UNICEF etc However, as you are clearly keen to get to the primary sources you can find them starting on p33 here including the Swedish case study referenced some pages ago.

Jmothecat2 Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Using sleep deprivation and stress as a justification for doing something you think is wrong? Stress and tiredness make people want to do all sorts of things they stop themselves from doing because they know it's wrong. It might explain why people do things but it doesn't justify them.

God almighty what a Wee sensitive soul you must be. I think children seeing their parents engage in violence or threaten violence to other adults is detrimental to their perceptions of violence. I don't see that in any way controversial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banana Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 On 10/22/2017 at 12:58, invergowrie arab said: The financial penalties and criminal charges you are talking about are penalties for non payment of fines issued by a legal authority, same as if you don't pay your parking ticket, fly tipping fine etc They are not specifically linked to the school absence issue. When parents enrol a child in school (they don't have to) they are then legally responsible and obliged to ensure the child attends school. It's not a state imposition it's a contract. The supreme court case ended up in the supreme court as the family took it there. FWIW I think it's entirely sensible that local authorities have the the power to refer non payment of fines to a criminal court in general but, as is the case in Scotland, Wales and N.Ireland, don't think it is suitable in this circumstance. If it helps you sleep better at night since June 2016 I have taken my niece out of school for trips away on three occasions for a cumulative total of 7 days and not a word has been said. These are all weasely rewordings and sneaky attempted re-contextualising - the state has in position legal ramifications for parents taking full guardianship for a child when the parents decide its necessary. If there's no penalty (there is), none of this should be in place in the first place. If I decide I want to take my kids out for the afternoon, or campervanning around Europe for 6 months, this should have f**k all to do with the state or or whatever relevant governing bodies. No prior notice necessary, no headmaster permission necessary, no questions asked. I do realise that having grown up in a situation where the state gets (is expected to get) it's paws into almost everything, it's a big shift in mindset to realise that this is not the only way and is actually pretty creepily fucked up.

Read up on domestic violence (i.e. physical violence in the home) being generational. That is, hit kids tend to hit their kids/partners, who also tend to hit their kids/partners, and so on. I realise violence is on a continuum from light tapping of a kid's hand once in a blue moon to regular beatings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's absolutely no way you could accurately measure that, as they'll only actually be looking at people who have committed a domestic violence crime.

No measuring is perfect, but it's been studied plenty in various ways, and there are meta-studies on top. It's been 3 or 4 years since I read the papers, watched the presentations, so do your own digging - generational violence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know how this works, its all about the outrage, toss domestic violence in and we get 'house' (seems fair, others have called house). Gotta love the angry rhetoric to reinvigorate the 'debate'...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
