When children are lying to their parents or teachers and there is a potential for harm to others?

should parents and/or teachers consider waterboarding the children to get the information from them to prevent harmful situations?





Why or why not is this legal?When children are lying to their parents or teachers and there is a potential for harm to others?
This is something that should not even be considered............When children are lying to their parents or teachers and there is a potential for harm to others?
Quite Possibly!, Here is an Instance, You as an individual who probably tell's very few ';White Lies'; because of the repercussions....hence your Question! (I'm guessing). You've made Friends at school with someone you thought was a Pretty Rad character, and Simply like hanging around with as a Mate. But somewhere along the way, you've discovered that your new found Mate is a Pathological Lier, although quite Dismayed and confused you continued to befriend this person. One day your friend asked you to Cover for (him or her), knowing it was going to be a Lie you went along with it anyway (in order to keep the Friendship) not realizing that from here on, you would be Counted upon to ';COVER'; for your Friend Indefinitely. These sort of Lies have a tendency to Spawn a Domino effect, does this sound to you as ';Harm to Others??.





P.S, If you truly Knew what ';Waterboarding'; is, you probably would never have even Mention it here.
Lies come out of children's mouths for a variety of reasons:





1) Fear. When kids are scared of the consequences of their actions, they often lie to cover up. (Are the rules too strict? Are the limits too tight? Does your child feel free to talk with you?)





2) To protect somebody else.





3) Because she is imaginative and the truth is boring.





4) To avoid an unpleasant task. (“Did you brush your teeth?” “Yes, Dad!”)





5) By mistake. Sometimes lies seem almost involuntary, and a lie just slips out, especially if your child gets caught in a misdeed. (“Who broke the antique chair? “I didn't!”) Then, soon enough, it's Sir Walter Scott: “Oh, what a tangled web we weave, When first we practice to deceive!”





6) For love, for approval, and because kids like to impress people quickly and effectively.





Lie Prevention Techniques (And That's the Truth!)


No, you can't keep your children from lying, but you can make lying a less rewarding activity. Many lies come from self-protection, and you can help by not creating a situation where your kid feels pressured to lie or suffer the consequences.





1) Keep the conversation focused on what happened or what the problem is, rather than casting blame.





2) Don't cross-examine (“After you left school, which route did you take home? And this was at precisely 3:10 p.m.?”), forget the fierce white lights and the sleep deprivation techniques. Remember that the object of talking with your child is to communicate. Grilling will make him close down, not open up, to you.





3) Looking for the positive intent? Lies are a misguided survival technique.





4) Lies are easy to slip into, and even easier to compound themselves, lie upon lie. Many kids slip into lying as painlessly as sliding into warm, tropical ocean water. It's more painful getting out (shiver, shiver).





5) When your kid has misbehaved, don't trap him into a lie, or set him up in a no-win situation. Confronting him with leading questions is more likely to elicit a lie than talking calmly with him about what happened. If Tony comes home with a black eye and you scream at him, “I swear I will kill you if you got into a fight! Did you fight today?” you are putting Tony into a situation where he's either got to lie (“Oh no, I walked into a wall.” “Oh honey, get an ice pack for that”) or face your wrath. A better approach would be, “Oh my! What happened? Let's sit down.”





6) The truth is hard to tell. It's risky to confess (and risk is always hard). If your child confesses a misdeed to you, you need to


a) thank him for the truth, and give him positive reinforcement for his bravery and his sense of ethics, and then


b) deal with the misdeed by applying appropriate consequences. Doing step 2 but not step 1 is as bad a mistake as doing step 1 without step 2. He needs to have positive feedback for telling the truth and he needs consistent consequences. The positive feedback will make the consequence easier to take, and help build his ethical sense.





7) Don't reprimand your child for telling the truth.





8) Before you talk with your kid about a lie he's told, make sure that he did lie. A false accusation, or not believing a child when he is telling the truth, can devastate.
children and grown adults are not the same, you do understand that, don't you? If you do not understand that then there is something mentally wrong with you.


better question: should we behead our war detainees like they do ours, or waterboard them?


Besides that, don't you realize that waterboarding has not been done in over two years because of the fact the terrorist train their members with this technique?!
children are gullible, they don't go out of their way for evil. Adults are different, especially adults that strap bombs to their kids and send them up to convoys to ask for a ';Kalam';. These adults deserve worse than waterboarding.
...I didn't know what waterboarding is--but I looked it up and found several very cruel things; one that stood out was.. simulated drowning?





..Why do you want to drown your child/student?





It's not legal because the kid could die?





Just tell the parents to spank it?
Run along hippie....
You are sick for even thinking that
