I've never seen that work for anyone. About all it does is fulfill a court ordered obligation. Unfortunately, you're probably a lot more on the mark with your assessment than you might know. People with anger management issues frequently maintain control in public, but let loose when out of sight in their homes. The person who lets loose in public? All bets are off behind closed doors. |

'couple years of anger management therapy might do it. He was punching the snowboarder's *helmet* - that's really out of control. If he does that to a boarder he doesn't even know imagine what he does to his own kids. Agreed. He did far more damage to his family and himself than to the boarder kid. Which is good in a certain sense. Not to belittle agrivated assault on a minor, but the boarder kid will probably shrug the whole thing off in a day or two. Not so the guy and his family. The guy's a loser and needs some time in confinement. Yeah, at least a night in jail seems to be in order. I don't think anybody would argue with that. But it's not going to be enough to solve his problem. Forget the anger management psycho-babble. I've never seen that work for anyone. About all it does is fulfill a court ordered obligation. Therapy can work for some, but they have to want to make it work. If it's just going through the motions to comply with a court order, it won't take. //Walt |

The point is the behavior choices that caused a collision or near collision in the first place. I'm sure you're aware of the countless serious knee injuries that occur just getting off the lift when someone gets their skis trapped by the other passenger. So to play down the collision or near collision or just the skis ignores the possible damage. With that said in response to your concern about the importance of running over skis, sometimes when it's crowded, stuff happens, even with good behavior choices, and each situation requires a different read and none require violence as a response. |

By _running over your kid's skis_? If so, seems to me that you've got a dangerously expansive definition of "putting your child at risk". Uh, no. The skis aren't the point. The point is the behavior choices that caused a collision or near collision in the first place. I'm sure you're aware of the countless serious knee injuries that occur just getting off the lift when someone gets their skis trapped by the other passenger. So to play down the collision or near collision or just the skis ignores the possible damage. But you have to get a grip and distinguish between a parent's neverending nightmare of "possible damage", and what actually happened -- and also, understand that people (and that includes children) incur certain risks when they go into certain areas, and that if a parent isn't comfortable with that risk ("my kid coulda been killed!"), it's the parent's job to keep their kid out of that situation. To feel the urge to batter another person over something that _might_ have happened, but didn't, and that was most likely a "people in a crowded area/I zig and you zag and we bump into one another" thing is...not a healthy reaction. That level of risk is something that your child will be exposed to as part of going skiing with other people around, or doing anything with a crowd of other people around. If a parent feels the urge to "beat the crap out of" others who don't treat their child like Waterford crystal and put themselves out to create a zone of protective space around the child that no one else has, it's the parent who needs an adjust. With that said in response to your concern about the importance of running over skis, sometimes when it's crowded, stuff happens, even with good behavior choices, and each situation requires a different read and none require violence as a response. No, and a responsible person does something about the violent urge before it turns into violent actions. |
