White parents don't whip their kids.....?


I wish somebody would've told my parents that when I was growing up because apparently they didn't get the memo.... =(

hahaha wow im sooo sorry. i hated watching that scene cause it just generalizes that all black parents whip their kids harshly and its not true for me and my parents. My parents DO believe that is a form of abuse so never did it with me thankfully.

I hate that scene because they tried soooo damn hard to make the white girl as stereotypically white as possible. I'm surprised they didn't write it into the script for her to say "like, totally" every 20 seconds and be eating some vegan crap while smelling like a wet dog when it rains.

Haha yeah, it really was trying to be too many things at once. It's almost has if they hired white people to write the stereotypes for the black characters, and black people to write the stereotypes for the white characters.

Hahaha i know my friends of all races who got hit. I don't mean beat down to the ground or to the point where it left marks but hard enough that there butts were sore and they knew not to do it. My mom rarely hit us. We got punished and wasn;t allowed to go outside and that was Worse than the butt whoopin when i was growing up in the 90's (When kids actually played outside instead of sat inside on the computer or playing video games)

Same here! Same with most white families I knew growing up. And I know plenty of black parents who don't hit their kids and don't believe in it. My blood pressure went way up during this and other scenes dealing with the white women.
