They learn it from watching us?
Seriously, though, there were some good things about this video but part of the problem is getting people to recognize that maybe there are some things they don't want to impart to their children. The guy in the laundromat, does he mind if his child also hates foreigners? Probably not. Similarly, if people shout at their kids are they going to mind so much if their children become shouty?
Also, I did like the video and I thought it was good but it was also kind of patronizing, like, "I know you do all these horrible things. Now your children will be bad people too! Tsk tsk." I get it and I like it mostly but that made me a little uncomfortable; there kind of seemed to be a shaming quality to this.comment:www.metafilter.com,2014:site.136507-5414186Mon, 10 Feb 2014 08:15:05 -0800Mrs. PterodactylBy: etc.

Wow. I mean, I know there's nothing wrong with punching my own wife, <em>but I don't want my kids punching her too</em>.

When I was about 3 my dad had to go pick up some large equipment for work in a van in Springfield, Illinois. He thought it would be a fun adventure for me to come along. Itcertainly was, and was one of the earliest fully formed memories in my mind. Alont the way a semi cut us off and my dad told me, "OK son, when we pass this truck I want you to wave to him with a special wave that looks like this, got it? Good boy!" I rolled my window down and gave the trucker my dad's "special wave". He couldn't have been prouder. Definitely a watershed moment in my understanding of parental love and making my dad proud as well as a valuable lesson in inter-personal communication.
Oh, did I mention dad was a priest?comment:www.metafilter.com,2014:site.136507-5414201Mon, 10 Feb 2014 08:29:38 -0800The 10th Regiment of FootBy: drezdn

I have the tendency to say "sorry" constantly. My son started doing it too, except his inflection is different so he always sounds sarcastic when he says it.comment:www.metafilter.com,2014:site.136507-5414330Mon, 10 Feb 2014 09:38:17 -0800drezdnBy: alms

I think I would like to see follow up with kids seeing their parents intervene... Another customer in the laundromat, for example, could have their kid see them confront the racist comment. And then the kid goes on to also stand up to racism.
Also I think kids often identify with the person their parent abuses
More effective with smoking or self depreciating remarks (the bad habit we want to change) than abuse...comment:www.metafilter.com,2014:site.136507-5414817Mon, 10 Feb 2014 13:15:34 -0800chappsBy: childofTethys

I struggle with these ads. Yes, they raise awareness, but we really need to see how people work things out. I've started fast-forwarding through bullying-awareness commercials with my kids and asking them what they would do, and yes, we need more bystander intervention PSAs. Including kids, standing up for what is right. Helping the mom with the stroller.comment:www.metafilter.com,2014:site.136507-5415148Mon, 10 Feb 2014 15:46:41 -0800childofTethysBy: BlueHorse

<em>Also I think kids often identify with the person their parent abuses</em>
Not necessarily. I think many boys, and some girls, identify with the abuser rather than choose the role of victim.
Works both ways, my parents smoked, and I refused, as I thought it was a stinky nasty thing to do.
It's hard to know how kids are always going to react to who and what their parents are.
But I agree, 99.9% of the time, yellers produce yellers, and impatient drivers, ditto.comment:www.metafilter.com,2014:site.136507-5415274Mon, 10 Feb 2014 17:16:24 -0800BlueHorseBy: LEGO Damashii

"Yes. Something that interested us yesterday when we saw it." "Where is she?" His lodgings were situated at the lower end of the town. The accommodation consisted[Pg 64] of a small bedroom, which he shared with a fellow clerk, and a place at table with the other inmates of the house. The street was very dirty, and Mrs. Flack's house alone presented some sign of decency and respectability. It was a two-storied red brick cottage. There was no front garden, and you entered directly into a living room through a door, upon which a brass plate was fixed that bore the following announcement:¡ª The woman by her side was slowly recovering herself. A minute later and she was her cold calm self again. As a rule, ornament should never be carried further than graceful proportions; the arrangement of framing should follow as nearly as possible the lines of strain. Extraneous decoration, such as detached filagree work of iron, or painting in colours, is [159] so repulsive to the taste of the true engineer and mechanic that it is unnecessary to speak against it. Dear Daddy, Schopenhauer for tomorrow. The professor doesn't seem to realize Down the middle of the Ganges a white bundle is being borne, and on it a crow pecking the body of a child wrapped in its winding-sheet. 53 The attention of the public was now again drawn to those unnatural feuds which disturbed the Royal Family. The exhibition of domestic discord and hatred in the House of Hanover had, from its first ascension of the throne, been most odious and revolting. The quarrels of the king and his son, like those of the first two Georges, had begun in Hanover, and had been imported along with them only to assume greater malignancy in foreign and richer soil. The Prince of Wales, whilst still in Germany, had formed a strong attachment to the Princess Royal of Prussia. George forbade the connection. The prince was instantly summoned to England, where he duly arrived in 1728. "But they've been arrested without due process of law.

Reuben did not go to the Fair that autumn¡ªthere being no reason why he should and several why he shouldn't. He went instead to see Richard, who was down for a week's rest after a tiring case. Reuben thought a dignified aloofness the best attitude to maintain towards his son¡ªthere was no need for them to be on bad terms, but he did not want anyone to imagine that he approved of Richard or thought his success worth while. Richard, for his part, felt kindly disposed towards his father, and a little sorry for him in his isolation. He invited him to dinner once or twice, and, realising his picturesqueness, was not ashamed to show him to his friends. Stephen Holgrave ascended the marble steps, and proceeded on till he stood at the baron's feet.
