Re: Training Children
by xdarkknight
I can understand why you'd want to have some sort of accountability, especially around children. However, as may be proof in many American ambulance companies, cameras can be used as weapons. The "Drive-Cams" are installed at the rear-view mirror and are triggered automatically in the incident of a collision. They record 30 seconds before and 30 seconds after an event. They view ahead and behind, in the main cab and out the front. These Cameras can be triggered automatically. They COULD be used to keep people accountable for poor actions, but they could also be used to keep you from any winging... which I feel is necessary. You gotta be allowed to give off a little steam now and then without the threat of your jobsworth partner punching the button every time you say something unbecoming about your boss/manager/supervisor. I personally feel a little naked with cameras around. As the arguement with Guns goes, if you don't have them, they won't be used. Which means if you've got a gun, they'll have a gun and if guns are pulled, guns will be used. Same with Cameras. If they are there because people are shifty nearby, people will know that they're expected to be shifty and will act shifty. I have nothing to hide. I feel that if you put more effort into making a truely trustworthy society, putting efforts into creating equality and giving people their true freedom, you will have fewer problems with shiftiness. Personally, I was homeschooled. As for our children, I feel VERY strongly that a childs education should not end as they exit their school doors. I feel that a parent, as the leader and example of their children, should make the time to teach their kids, even if only partially, a day a week or so. The best part of this is that you can see what your kids dreams, hopes, desires and interests are. you can help them improve these things in themselves. say your kid is into airplanes or space or swimming or dancing or racecars, you can take them to places where these things are showcased. You can take them to visit the airplane mechanics and pilots. Give them little goals for their visits. Find the short courses that require an adult for children under 18 and take them to it.... All this to say, Parents need to have a bigger hand in their kids lives. Take them away from the cameras and crowds. Teach outdoor survival techniques. Build an "off-the-grid" mindset that keeps kids on a community oriented path and away from large controlled governments.
