I remember well the days of full contact bullrush. I've still got the scars.

[Geeen]

I have memories of being shoved into the fence between the school and the caretakers house during games of bullrush that somehow became scrag when a ball was thrown in. And this fence was a proper fence, chicken wire and concrete posts, none of this white picket stuff...

[Ocean1]

I have memories of...

That's nothing...

[Headbanger]

Bullrush never went away....

Hell, Just a couple of weeks back I challenged an entire shed full of pissed up kiwis to a game.

When no one took me up on the offer I called them all pussies.

Then they all wanted a go.

So I backed down.



...........Thats how I roll.

Nowadays:

Kid says they're being bullied. "Bully" when questioned, said some mean word or something, once.

Kid wants teacher to ask a group if they can play with them...

Kid says others being mean... they don't want to play with the kid.

Real precious nowadays... Just wait till this crop start having kids

[Headbanger]

Meh, I have trouble trying to get my kids to wear shoes, or stop running,leaping, wrestling, destroying the entire world, SHUTTING THE FUCK UP AND SITTING THE FUCK DOWN BOY OR I'LL KNOCK YOU INTO NEXT WEEK.

And no, You can't have a swig of my beer....

I love the generic "complain about the newer generation" bunch.

You're all focusing on the negative side of life, have a milo and a wank and you'll forget all about your wee whingefests.

I'm just surprised and a little gob-smacked that some parents have wrapped their kids in so much cotton wool and bubble wrap, I get all the "what if my kid gets hurt" stuff having two of them myself. But I honestly think kids NEED to do dumb stuff and get scuffed up to figure things out. It teaches them about consequences to their actions i.e. climbing a tree that's not big enough to hold them and they fall out. But then in today's risk adverse culture I'm a hard parent, but my kids will benefit from it later in life.

Ooops the kids still do bull rush at my club (though it is hands and knees), though there are some precious parents. "Johny" can't take off his t shirt under his suit as he has self confidence issues; "Johny" then has a hissy fit and storms out after being gently thrown to the ground.
