I caught up a lot on my TV over the last week or so. I was told about a programme that was going to air a few weeks ago. I quickly popped online and set the remote sky plus to record the programme. It took me a while to get round to watching it. Since there were now 2 episodes out of 8 recorded. I sat and watched. The programme was called ‘THE SLAP’
This programme brought up a few political views. The slap was handed out to a child. Not by a parent or a relation. I have always found this subject matter brings up a lot of opinions. The whole smacking or not smacking a child debate can get highly heated.
The programme its self is, I feel pretty good. It’s based in Australia
(Wondering to blog about this whole smacking thing not)
As a parent the idea of someone slapping my child brings me to say this…..
“And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. (Children) And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee." Tell me you don’t know what movie that is from!
So imagine me now standing with a big black guy while holding a hand grenade before anyone thinks to slap my kids.
Also you would know when you’re significantly stoned or pissed when you unwillingly giggle to 'Austin
yea baby.. yeaaaa
Is it me or am I the only one loving ‘RINGER’? I am really enjoying it.
