My sister once told my mom she’d call CPS over some banal reason and she responded “call them. They’ll come and take you to a foster home, probably split you and your siblings up, and you can sleep in bunk beds with 5 other kids to a room.” That was the last time my sister used that tactic
Not exactly the same thing here, but I was ratted out to the police for a dumb kid thing (thanks Ray!). They came on a Sunday morning, my mom answered the door with her plate of pancakes, let them in and said they were here for me and just went back to eating. I was so isolated at that moment, so very much on my own that I never did anything like that again. Tough moms are the best moms, I’m glad you’re holding the line with your kids.
It's the old.... "I'll stop right here and let you kids walk the rest of the way, if you don't settle down !!!!" But seriously, they talk about helicopter parents, but they've evolved into bulldozer parents. Like the ones who start fist fights at little league games, over balls and strikes......smh
I remember my sister saying that and my mother slapped the life out of her...never mentioned it again. I wish my child would tell me some BS like that.
I was a teen when cell phones started proliferating, and we weren’t allowed to have them in class. And those were just plain Nokia phones that do nothing but make phone calls. Restricting smart phones in school is a no-brainer.

I became a single father after 17 years of marriage. My sons mother, due to the lousy healthcare system died from cancer. Two weeks after the funeral sitting at the kitchen. How am I going to raise a 7 and 11 year old sons that were hurt because their mother died. Then it dawned on me. Marine Corp barracks. I screamed down the hall at the boys and to got into the living room. Told them I loved them, I can't run this house alone, you're going to have have learn some new skills like washing cloths, dishes and cooking. 10 years later, the boys took me out on Mother's Day. I was given a Mother's Day Card. "Happy Mother's Day, Dad. Mom would be proud." The youngest turned down three full ride college scholarships enlisted in the military, oldest now runs a family business and side hustles. Tough Love never hurt any kid.
I don't trust anyone that claims to be perfect. And I know from personal experience...tough love doesn't do shit but cause resentment. If your kid joined the military rather than take a full ride scholarship... he's dumb and you are too for not advising him better. Should have taken the full ride THEN joined the military as an officer.
My wife is a middle school teacher and was suspended- because she took a cell phone away from a child- during a mid-term exam. Board ruled, that she was " derelict" in her duty to remove the connection between the 12 yr old and her mother. As it turned out- ... the mother was asking the child ( during her exam), what she wanted for dinner that night.
That is insane. Everyone knows that electronic devices need to be stowed during exams to reduce the chance of cheating. What idiots are running the school board?

I graduated from high school 20 years ago and the whole class had cell-phones. We had to leave them in our lockers. Seems like a no brainer and not something you need to pass a law about.

Volunteered in an elementary school for 4 months. It's *insane* to allow phones in classrooms period. Kids distract each other enough as it is, plus they have laptops in classes already! We made it through all of school w/o phones. If your parents need to reach you, they can call the office!
I had a teacher at a technical college who would deduct points from your grade if you kept looking at your cellphone during class. None of us wanted that to happen.
I was a high school teacher up until 2 years ago. I had a clear plastic shoe organizer hanging in my classroom. Students put their phones in this when they came in to the room and grabbed it when they left. This worked for the most part. They could still see their phone and knew they'd be reunited shortly. Eventually this idea caught on and many colleagues starting doing the same.
@@semperfidelification Good way to put it. People (not just Students) get anxious (sometimes extremely) if they don't have their phone. I'm guilty of this. 10 years ago, I didn't have a phone, now it's hard to be without it.

When I was a kid - we were given bicycles - skateboards - mini bikes - ball gloves a ball and a bat - a basketball - a fishing pole - a kickball and we went outside. I didn't even know what a bicycle helmet was until I was middle aged. I certainly never wore one - and I don't even think they were being manufactured when I was a kid. I walked to and from school - even in winter ( up north ) by myself etc . . We stayed out until dark and sometimes later than that. My Mom NEVER knew where I was. And this was all NORMAL.
The world, to me, seems so much colder All the children seem much older, than they did yesterday They learn so fast, they learn so hard, too soon they're gone from the backyard, before they've had time to play I miss yesterday The neighborhoods, the little stores, nobody ever locked their doors, they all knew where you were from Now I wonder behind lock and key, is the price we pay worth the security, we're sealed up tighter than a drum I miss yesterday
We would definitely still be doing this, but unfortunately both parties have allowed nearly unlimited corporate profit at any cost, resulting in so many things that took these choices away from modern Americans in the US.

I was babysitting my nieces and nephews once so their parents could all have a night out... I told them to go outside and play after getting rambunctious in the house... they were about 10 yrs old... their response "play what" ? broke my heart as my kids were outside all the time...
My kids go to a K-12 charter school where phones (and smart watches) have always been banned (phones are allowed to be in their locker for use before and after school) and they've never complained about it because it is normal for them. This should be the norm everywhere.
Phones should be nothing but phones! You call and text that should be it. I’m Gen-X and we never had this crap and we were just fine. And I like to know who called these phones smart? They’re nothing but dumb-dum phones if you ask me.
Yes! Adults are just as bad now. I take trail walks and I’m amazed at how many people are walking and glued to their phones. No one is present anymore.
In the golden era of broadcast journalism, news & public service programming were required by FCC licensing. FCC could require the same for cable & social media firms.
Why don't we require smartphones to become "dumb" phones during school hours. Kids can only call Mom/Dad during school hours. No other data services should be available.
As a retired teacher, NO PHONES. The students use the phones to record teachers, especially when the students try to trigger a response to get the teacher in trouble.

I'm a School Psychologist in an urban area and at the multiple schools I work at, kids (all ages) have to hand in their cell phones before school starts.
I’m a huge skeptic of and very critical of today’s journalism but even in the movies as a kid, I knew it was for profit. Perry White was always yelling, “Lane!!

Really? Phones aren't already banned in school over there? Crazy. My last few years in school were as the iPhone was becoming popular and you just didn't take it out in class or you KNEW you risked having it taken off you for the day. You kept it in your friggin pocket till breaks n shit.
Bill was extremely unfair to Hunter Biden not discussing the fact the major source of his and most peoples severe addiction problems was childhood trauma. Hunter and his brother witnessed their mother and sister die in front of their faces in a horrific accident when they were young. If that wasn’t bad enough, Hunter dealt with his brother and beat friend dying of cancer. That would push anyone over the deep end. I bet Bill Maher owns a gun and is addicted to drugs, maybe he should get charged with gun charges too. Maher never went to law school and passed the bar like Hunter. He acts like Hunters a complete low life dependent on his dad who has some kind of control over an adult.
I thought that too. Seeing your mom and sister die is enough to throw any kid into deep trauma. That was really crass of Bill. Cruel. He clearly deeply dislikes Biden. I don’t like him either but this is a whole other level.
The GOP has dug itself into such a deep hole over the last 7-8 years and they just keep digging. My former party is unsavable at this point, and it will take at least a generation to overcome. Quite possibly two generations.
Funny you say that because I feel the same way about the Democratic Party. They are no longer the party of the working class and haven’t been for some time now. They need their own version of Trump who will hopefully return them to the values they held one or two generations ago.
From what I hear from one of my daughters who teaches in NYC... The biggest complaints about the proposed phone ban in schools are the parents. They WANT their child to be able to call them in case of a school shooting.
Then we absolutely have to get rid of the phones in schools. Clearly these parents are not motivated enough to actually do anything possible to stop school shootings before they start and this is what they're using to cope
Oh my gosh this is horrifying. As a person who grew up in Europe, this would have never crossed my mind. I'm so sorry you have to factor this in as a risk for your children.
Good point, I just think parents will have to wait to hear any news. These parents will not be able to help their children during school shootings anyway.
Once a kid refused to give me their phone, I started calling security. If the school has rules that support taking the phone, the teacher was correct in taking the phone - I hate that they say this creates PTSD in a child. It’s hard enough to teach without competing against a bot. 🤖
'Oh no, reform the republican party in his imagine' Yeah, the republican party needs major reform, and I hope it's this way. Why be 'loyal to your party' if your party isn't loyal to the people and especially it's base?
I know what my mom and dad would have said if I called child services on them They would have said fine Take the kid Let him try the system and see how he does there
Boy the parenting thing. Dual national military family, now expats & retired. I have to say the best thing we did was raise our girls away from heavy family influence. & they had ZERO TV until early teens - dvds of all sorts, yes, (including lots of 60’s sitcoms 😂) - but no TV. Plenty of outdoor time & reading. No cell phones until teens & they had to pay for them. We did little online monitoring because they were very sensible & discerning by the time they encountered online culture. I know this isn’t possible for everyone, but it’s important to establish a healthy family culture & guard it from destructive influences.
When my sister spanked one of her for his rude and disrespectful behavior,he threatened to call child services,after she delt with him. She said " now go make your call, hope you like your new parents".
My son reported me to the schools resource officer, I made him read 1 hour after school..... He had and read the Goosebumps series 🤭😉 The resource officer called me and asked, do you know my mom?? 🤭🤣
I own a business and 2 employees have quit because I , as the owner, had to call them out (and I did it very cordially) on serious mistakes they made. They ended up quitting. My thought was "are you serious acting like the victim" ? These youngsters are over sensitive and don't want to own up to mistakes, or like being told they did something wrong. They don't think they do anything wrong. One of them blamed me and called out red flags for lack of communication. They wanted to gas light me for their own mistakes It's unbelievable.
To clarify, I think they can easily ban any USE of cell phones in schools or during class, but I'm not in favor of actually banning them. They should be allowed to have them in their pocket or backpack imo.
but you can actually see why, as ridiculous as it is. you cant use this to make it sound like trump got scammed. trump is rightfully guilty - but dont worry his sentence will be little to nothing.
Ahhhhh at the end of the day it's a business! It's not a charity... But obviously it's not profitable because nobody wants to buy their "product". Trump bashing as a business model gets very old very quick, even for people who don't like him... But really Bezos only bought the paper to do that very thing.
Though I agree that Trump alienating every Republican who isn't behind him isn't a great idea, honest-to-God Americans know that the Trump prosecution and conviction was banana Republic stuff. Having another Mitt Romney in the Senate creates as many problems at it solves.
Banning smart phones in schools is obvious, but shouldn't be done on a federal or state level. Every school or school district should just do it as a matter of routine.
I agree but having the Govt mandate would sure make it a lot easier for schools not be the bad guy and they are on the " front lines" of this issue. Not some Govt douche bag the teachers can simply point the finger at and not get the wrath of the feedback from both students and parents.
Nobody watches CNN! More people watch fox, according to ratings. I dont watch any of the lying media outlets but fox has beaten cnn in ratings. So not sure why you got confused about that. Cnn needs trump. Trump doesn’t need cnn. Trump can use twitter and get way more views than cnn could bring in. Tucker carlson proved that.

Why is Bill Maher commenting on parenting again? Don't get me wrong I love you Bill Maher and I respect you and your whole career? The reason people don't listen to your advice on having children is the reason why we are still alive

I'm a School Psychologist in an urban area and at the multiple schools I work at, kids (all ages) have to hand in their cell phones before school starts.

Journalism died when they made it "For Profit"
Like so many other things that have made profit their first priority unfortunately.
Journalism was always for profit.
True!
I’m a huge skeptic of and very critical of today’s journalism but even in the movies as a kid, I knew it was for profit. Perry White was always yelling, “Lane!! Get in here!” He always wanted her to get the scoop and I figured it was to beat news rivals and to sell papers.
I think it’s always been about profit.
Everything is for profit, literally EVERYTHING.

Hmmmn. I just renewed my NYT and WaPo subscuiptions.

This segment would be pretty much the same if the guest's were replaced by random members of the audience. Abigail got about 30 seconds, that was cool.
We who’ve experienced Complex PTSD - even from neglect - often need to see things through a victim lens for a while. Not forever. It made me sad that Abigail et al dismissed this kind of thing as nonsense and laughable. It’s real. Trust me.
Very real indeed.

Bill Maher are you a psychologist or a comedian lets define this 🤗
While I'm sure he doesn't do it, psychologists (among others) sometimes write things called books that anyone can read and learn from.
Hes a comedian,
Just read a comment earlier... "To make a liberal cry, tell them a lie. To make a MAGA cultist cry, tell them the truth." Absolutely true.
Both groups are equally obnoxious and idiotic.
Funny, Biden being too old to be president is a truth that no liberal wants to hear. Because when they do, the loud screeching commences.
Well then Democrats should constantly be in tears listening to Biden. Biden is a pathological liar.
That's such an insanely grandiose image of a liberal .. they weep in the presence of falsehoods.... Lol.
@John-kj7tv

Really? Phones aren't already banned in school over there? Crazy. My last few years in school were as the iPhone was becoming popular and you just didn't take it out in class or you KNEW you risked having it taken off you for the day. You kept it in your friggin pocket till breaks n shit.
Matt Welch thinks we're as impressed with him as he is with himself.
I went to sleep right after making that comment, realized after I was in bed it wasn't Matt Walsh but Matt Welch lol oops.
Bill was extremely unfair to Hunter Biden not discussing the fact the major source of his and most peoples severe addiction problems was childhood trauma. Hunter and his brother witnessed their mother and sister die in front of their faces in a horrific accident when they were young. If that wasn’t bad enough, Hunter dealt with his brother and beat friend dying of cancer. That would push anyone over the deep end. I bet Bill Maher owns a gun and is addicted to drugs, maybe he should get charged with gun charges too. Maher never went to law school and passed the bar like Hunter. He acts like Hunters a complete low life dependent on his dad who has some kind of control over an adult.
Great point
Be great if the Dems could start growing a pair and making that same point to any conservatives who dare lump Hunter in with Trump.
Clearly a progressive, playing the victim card to excuse anti-social behaviour. Hunter Biden is the victim of bad parenting.
@ChiChi-townGal 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I thought that too. Seeing your mom and sister die is enough to throw any kid into deep trauma. That was really crass of Bill. Cruel. He clearly deeply dislikes Biden. I don’t like him either but this is a whole other level.
Our grammar school teachers would confiscate our baseball cards!
Not enough discussion from Abigail.
Trump did not come to CA to campaign but to collect some checks to pay his legal bills!
Perfect place to get it.
Maybe he should have sold some artwork while he was there.... (this is a Biden joke, which has to be explained to you, for obvious reasons).

Demographics
The GOP has dug itself into such a deep hole over the last 7-8 years and they just keep digging. My former party is unsavable at this point, and it will take at least a generation to overcome. Quite possibly two generations.
You’ll survive
I think the Republican party can get back on course over the next few election cycles, but the MAGA movement can’t be part of that resurgence.
@@ptguy02 true democracy right
MAGA has got to GO!!! It's a cancer.
Funny you say that because I feel the same way about the Democratic Party.
They are no longer the party of the working class and haven’t been for some time now.
They need their own version of Trump who will hopefully return them to the values they held one or two generations ago.
nice to have a panel talking some sense again instead of just talking points like the last few weeks.
From what I hear from one of my daughters who teaches in NYC... The biggest complaints about the proposed phone ban in schools are the parents. They WANT their child to be able to call them in case of a school shooting.
Then we absolutely have to get rid of the phones in schools. Clearly these parents are not motivated enough to actually do anything possible to stop school shootings before they start and this is what they're using to cope
Oh my gosh this is horrifying. As a person who grew up in Europe, this would have never crossed my mind. I'm so sorry you have to factor this in as a risk for your children.
Those parents are morons since the ban is for smartphones, not basic cell phones so they can still make calls.
Flip phones ftw
Good point, I just think parents will have to wait to hear any news. These parents will not be able to help their children during school shootings anyway.
Kids learn…watch their parents….there is your trouble.parents in America are lost is it a wonder their children are
Once a kid refused to give me their phone, I started calling security. If the school has rules that support taking the phone, the teacher was correct in taking the phone - I hate that they say this creates PTSD in a child. It’s hard enough to teach without competing against a bot. 🤖
'Oh no, reform the republican party in his imagine'
Yeah, the republican party needs major reform, and I hope it's this way. Why be 'loyal to your party' if your party isn't loyal to the people and especially it's base?

Boy the parenting thing. Dual national military family, now expats & retired. I have to say the best thing we did was raise our girls away from heavy family influence. & they had ZERO TV until early teens - dvds of all sorts, yes, (including lots of 60’s sitcoms 😂) - but no TV. Plenty of outdoor time & reading. No cell phones until teens & they had to pay for them. We did little online monitoring because they were very sensible & discerning by the time they encountered online culture.
I know this isn’t possible for everyone, but it’s important to establish a healthy family culture & guard it from destructive influences.

I own a business and 2 employees have quit because I , as the owner, had to call them out (and I did it very cordially) on serious mistakes they made. They ended up quitting. My thought was "are you serious acting like the victim" ? These youngsters are over sensitive and don't want to own up to mistakes, or like being told they did something wrong. They don't think they do anything wrong.
One of them blamed me and called out red flags for lack of communication. They wanted to gas light me for their own mistakes

Banning smart phones in schools is obvious, but shouldn't be done on a federal or state level. Every school or school district should just do it as a matter of routine.
I agree but having the Govt mandate would sure make it a lot easier for schools not be the bad guy and they are on the " front lines" of this issue. Not some Govt douche bag the teachers can simply point the finger at and not get the wrath of the feedback from both students and parents.

CNN brought in Trumps audience, Fox wouldn’t.
Did you see cadaver Biden at the war memorial in France? What an embarrassment to the country.
Nobody watches CNN! More people watch fox, according to ratings. I dont watch any of the lying media outlets but fox has beaten cnn in ratings. So not sure why you got confused about that. Cnn needs trump. Trump doesn’t need cnn. Trump can use twitter and get way more views than cnn could bring in. Tucker carlson proved that.
