45% of Saudi children suffer physical and psychological abuse!!!

Peace be upon you,
the article was not specific, i.e. it didn?t define how they were psychologically or physically abused, or even why, and it didn?t tell us how many children they asked in order to come up with the sweeping result of 45% of Saudi kids being physically / psychologically abused. I don?t find the figure particularly shocking nope, i?m sure other countries statistics are not that much better either .
-
Wait, did someone imply the Saudi system was working in the first place? rotfl
-
^ And this is where we reflect on how lucky we are, indeed.

Ah, the Western hemisphere is broken in terms of the "nuclear family" and the breakdown of all family ties over time, the Eastern hemisphere is broken in terms of being supendously conservative, refusing to be educated, refusing to srtand to reason, and refusing to throw away their prehistoric rituals.
-
Just a question OPF,are you bringing up any children?
-
Nope. Why?

Oh,just feel like some folks think their knowledge is grounded in practical real-life experience,when its not.....Easy to criticise from an ivory tower,much harder when faced with reality... ! Book smart does not always equal real knowledge.....
When i was younger i could 'easily' criticise certain aspects of peoples parenting skills,but when you go through it yourself you begin to see if your criticism of others was valid or just based on incomplete knowledge and armchair punditry.... -

I'm certainly not criticising people's parenting skills, I have many parents in my family
And I do have to handle kids, sometimes. If anything stretches your patience to the limits, it's a 2 year old kid on a sugar rush.
By thw way, are you a Saudi parent by any chance, and is your child one of the 45% that are supposedly "abused"?

OPF,i didnt comment on the 'saudi' situation,whereas you commented on the family in the west.......I believe angel answered on my behalf....
ps; in the west many families are indeed doing a great job with their children,dont fall for the islamic propoganda and skewed statistics..... -

I know many of the supposed statistics are myths, like the "50% divorce rate", but you cannot sincerely deny there is no problem in either societies.
-
There are problems in both societies and all societies......

By the way, I have to congratulate you on attempting to personally attack me when you started out.
Now, onto your post
Correct. I was dwelling on this. Not on whether some parents I have never met or seen are good or bad at raising their children.
Either way, psychological harm will come to people, whether you shelter them and wrap them in cotton wool, or whether you force them out into the streets.

You only just worked out my criticism? Not as good as you think are you? D
Cant avoid bait? Im big enough to ignore your bait and snipes on the forum......Called MATURITY......You should try it sometime...... elektro ! -

And as for "bait", what you perceive as "bait" may not be so.
And finally, as for maturity, if maturity = resorting to logical fallacies, distorted meanings, erroneous questions and such, I prefer being immature in your eyes.
