    I agree with Ginuwine 1000%. I cannot deal with a disrespectful kid. He needs to write a book. These are some of the most disrespectful, ungrateful kids that I have ever seen. I don’t blame them though, I blame the parents. The kids don’t come here knowing, they have to be taught.

    I have to say that after watching the clip of Ginuwine, I have to say that I agree with what he said, we need to take our kids back to the old school where if you are told to do something then it better get done no questions asked. I am a mother of four girls and all I can say is I wish mine would. Boy that will be the day…

    Pony, Same ‘Ol G, In Those Jeans, So Anxious, None of Your Friends Business, and Stingy. This is just to name a few of GINUWINE’S HITS!!!! (That’s directed to DMY. Ginuwine has money AND HITS!!!! So you can’t really question that, but as far as what he was saying….he is soooooo right. Too many children these days are talking to their parents and treating their parents like they have lost their minds!!! I grew up as a foster child, and sometimes I feel a little envious of children that have GREAT parents that have taught them how to respect others and to respect themselves. I had my foster mother to teach me that, but it just doesn’t feel the same as having your biological parents do it!!!

    I guess the only people who would disgree with or be offended by what Ginuwine is saying, would be someone who is a deadbeat themselves or just don’t know how to parent–he probably stepped on some toes lol! Let’s not get off course and diss his credentials as an artist (ahem DMY)–that’s “real talk” he’s sharing, take heed.

    He’s telling the truth; most of our societal ills are due to lack of dicipline and respect. It goes from the kid not respecting parents, to the kid not respecting teachers; then it goes from the kid not respecting adults, to the kid not respecting its peers; from there it goes to the kid not respecting itself and life in general….

    to the Kid finally being made to respect police officers in a penal institution.

    LMAO WHO CANT AGREE WITH THAT. QUESTION IS WHAT CAN BE DONE WHO SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE KIDS BEHAVIOR?

    Kids need to understand that they are not equal to you!

    Kudos to Ginuwine he’s so right. DMY, must have been some truth in what Ginuwine said that make you start talking like a clown. All his hits songs from the past still hot today and in your information he writes songs too, so still getting paid!!!!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/SassyliciousD/ SassyliciousD

    Hey 1blackmale, my dad didn’t have to pop no belt on me just give me a look and that was the end of my temper tantrums! LOL

    Most parents today fear their kids when it should be the other way around. My dad put fear in me and my siblings but not to the point that we grew up like nervous wrecks or doormats. He always been there for us when we needed him god rest his soul.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/odoggz/ odoggz

    at least he’s there for kids. Half the posters don’t know they have kids out there, or aren’t sh1t themselves. You probably let your kids pose in photos with gang bandannas and guns.

    This is a good and funny article blog foreal.”Ginuwine”.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/The_Lion14/ The_Lion14

    He’s right kids today do not have any respect. When their name is called they’re suppose to say “YES” and not yea or huh!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/KINESHIA/ KINESHIA

    LOL YEAH Thats True But KIDS NEED PARENTS Who Tgey CAN RESPECT You just being their Mom or father Isnt goin’ 2 Do it

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/movingforward05/ movingforward05

    Us men need to stop planting that seed without making that life long commitment. Hell if we don’t do anything else in life, raise your children full time, not when you feel like it. That’s the only promise I have made to myself and vow to stand by it. Us men all need to make that promise!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/chi_t_07/ chi_t_07

    YEA GINUWINE RIGHT, N DATS Y KIDS AINT GOT RESPECT LIKE DAT NO MO, CUZ DA PARENTS YO. IT SAD TO SAY, AND I REALLY DONT APPROVE OF SOME OF THE THINGS OLDER FOLK, AND PARENTS BELIEVE IN, LIKE THE SAYING “U GROWN WHEN U GET OUT MY HOUSE”, NAW I BELIEVE U GROWN AT 18 YRS OLD, AND INDEPENDENT WHEN U MOVE OUT, BUT WHATS RIGHT IS WHATS RIGHT. DIFFERENT PEOPLE RAISE THEY KIDS DIFFERENTLY, AND THE WORLD JUS GOTTA EXCEPT THAT, N HOPEFULLY THE MORE KNOWLEDGABLE PEOPLE ON THIS EARTH CAN HELP OUT, SUCH AS GINUWINE’S STORE EXAMPLE, BY CORRECTING THE WRONG THINGS THESE KIDS DO.

    Respect IS a big deal, but I don’t believe using yea and uh-huh made me any less respectful coming up!!!

    Very Good Advice! Now we need some of these Black men posting on the forums to correct their grammar.

    If you cannot spell or speak correctly, what kind of tutor are you to your children. Remember, Home is the First School. My sons never address me with “uh-huh’ or ‘yea’ due to the fact, those are not words and I am not a friend in the street. This is a small factor leading to the bigger picture, so when they become young men in this world, they will never associate and alias to themselves as ‘boy’. Do some math, get a hobby other than cussing over some digital sounds, and respect the women of all races, and seek wisdom.

    Seek Wisdom

    I agree with this advice from Ginuwine. Parents need to be parents and not their kids friends. I especially agree with the part about others correcting your kid. Many parents today take that personally and get upset with the other individual. Unless they are just plain going overboard, you should be glad. It shows your child that they are accountable even when your not around and it creates an environment of accountability for them. If you respond negatively then they know that they can get away with bad behavior when away from home. We as a people need to stop texting so much period, because it does cause us to lose touch somewhat. Moderation is the key. Face to face can never be replaced.

    Spoken like a REAL G! Remember, it takes a village to raise a child. Each one teach one.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/MrsScott2u/ MrsScott2u

    I totally agree with the brotha . We dont address the dis respect ful kids we have allowed the disrespect to get out of control. Thats one of the reasons kids are out of control.

    I AGREE WITH MR. GINUFINE. (LOL) ABOUT R YOUTH THESE KIDS LACK RESPECT, I HAVE 4 CHILDREN 3 BOYS & MY DAUGHTER IS THE YOUNGEST. WHEN I CALL YOUR NANE NEVER ANSWER ME WHAT, OR SAY OMG LIKE I’M GETTING ON YOUR NERVES, MY BOYS R GROWN & OUT THE HOUSE & KNOW 2 THIS DAY NEVER SAY WHAT 2 ME. THEY KNOW 2 WATCH THEIR LANGUAGE & RESPECT THEIR ELDERS, THE SAGGING CRAP, WHEN THEY COME IN2 MOMMIE’S HOUSE PULL YOUR FREAKIN PANTS UP & PUT ON A BELT CAUSE IT’S A SIGN OF PURE STUPIDITY 2 HAVE YOUR UNDER WEAR SHOWING. GOD BLESS U & YOUR FAMILY GINUFINE KEEP UP THA GOOD WORK!!!!!
