Ok- not quite. But holy shit. She's 1.5 and comes from a pretty brutal family. Either her birthmom or her birthfather killed her older sister at age 3. not enough for either to be criminally convicted- too much he said she said, but the minute our daughter was born, they took her from the fam. and we've had her basically since birth.

today mini schnauzer puppy like "attacked" our daughter with joy. i mean, was totally wild and puppy teeth and in her face and she got terrified. okay, that's normal.

what's not normal? her response was to scream and kick and hit the shit out of it. not cry or run away or cover her face. to beat the fucking puppy down.

(of course no real damage. we separated both soon and then she started bawling.)

but jesus fucking christ, we might be in trouble. also, she's 17 months old.

If this kid was 100% white you wouldn't bat an eye. You also wouldn't bat an eye if she did this in response to an animatronic toy dog that scared her. In the last two years I've probably seen two dozen <18 month olds react with violence when scared by an animal, toy or child (granted some may have been <12 months and not really mobile, but still). You and your wife should chill the fuck out, but that's true of roughly 99% of educated first-time parents of kids who can't speak in complete sentences yet.

Um, that is completely normal for a 1.5 year old child. Normal 1.5 year old children do a lot worse than that. Kids like to kill ants by the thousands, have screaming fits because they don't get the toy they like and attack other children over toys. This happens ALL THE TIME with perfectly normal children. Anyone who knows shit about kids would know this. OP's reaction is the most creepy thing about this incident.

There are no black people on xo, duh. No kids but I do have a much younger sister whom I spent a lot of time babysitting. Normal little children are on average perfectly horrible little psychopaths. Seriously, that's normal, they don't even develop a sense of empathy until much, much later. Little children are NOT nice. You have to teach them to be nice. And don't be surprised when it takes some work and effort.

How are you scared of a 1.5 year old kid? What's wrong with you? It's your kid. Raise them right and it will be fine.

There's nothing that weird about her getting scared of a dog you just explain what happened (even though you think they cannot understand you just explain it anyway, sooner or later they will begin to understand and those memories will be there on some level). And don't be all "omg you attacked the puppy". Explain that the puppy loves her and it's ok that she misunderstood but remember the puppy loves you.

you think you scold a child who was out of her mind terrorized?

that dog scared the shit out of her and she's 17 months old. the only thing to do is to comfort her. not to tell her what she did was wrong. "puppies love you sweetheart. we know you're crying too inconsolably to hear it. but they love you. don't hit the puppy. that's mean!"

and even if she were old enough and calm enough to understand, like i'm going to scold a child for something it's clear she had 0 control over. if she'd pissed herself in fear, should i have told her "honey, we don't do that. remember next time not to be afraid." this was her version of pissing herself in fear. it just wasn't a common one. so yes. we exchanged glances.

now i have no fucking respect for anything you say.

Yeah if your kid runs out in front of a car you should probably just comfort her too. If she did something wrong you correct her. Otherwise she will not know it was wrong. Yes, you can comfort and correct at the same time.

you're a fucking asshole (and ineffectual) if you try correcting the second.

that's not true. anyone can break a kid before 2. it's amazing how many ways you can destroy your child. fetal alcohol syndrome. shaken baby. failure to thrive.

that said? this would totally be us. we got a healthy, lovely infant girl, days old with no issues other than positive for marijuana (no, i'm not saying this is an issue).

we are stable, loving people though. and considering no tv, no spanking, no dv... i think it's possible she wasn't even exposed to violence before this. (though of course don't know for sure.) makes me reconsider the whole nature/nurture thing.

You seem like a bad parent. Get rid of the dog. I don't get this business of having dogs around such little kids. When the kid is older (like 7 or 8) and demands a dog, then get her one then.

I would consider you an irresponsible parent. The ironic thing is that some government agency thought you good enough to adopt.

not our dog. we were visiting a family member. obviously stopping the 16 month old ball of fur and teeth would have been a smart thing to do.

we missed it.

if not flame, your "child" is an impregnable wild animal. it's a basic genetic condition. she's probably addicted to crack too

If not flame, try to shrug it off, pretend it didn't happen, and keep reprogramming her like you have. Will probably be fine shortly. You have the right approach.

The heritability of IQ and predilection to violence are high.

We have friends who adopted--fucking can't type this without stopping to laugh for like two mintues--a Juggalo spawn. The kid is the best anecdata for nature/nurture you could ever see. Clearly not a supergenius, but a committed set of parents with high IQs and he went from weird and clearly somewhat off toddler (late milestones, they worried about spectrum issues for a while there) to super awesome, bright, inquisitive four year old. It genuinely brightens my day every time I hang out with them and think about how that kid's life would've been if he'd stayed with his biological parents.

My vague recollection of the twins studies is that parenting has almost no effect on how the child ends up as an adult.

I think you're talking about adoption studies, and that's pretty much true. I mean, parenting does affect outcomes, but if you're looking specifically at IQ, the effect is small, and if you're looking specifically at correlations with the IQs of the adoptive parents rather than other aspects of their parenting, the effect is smaller still. there's a big adoptive effect on IQ in childhood, but it diminishes over time.

I think the juggalo-spawn kid will probably turn out pretty well as an adult (especially in more malleable traits), but if he ends up with a high IQ you can conclude that his birth parents had better genes than you might have assumed. makes me think of this post a guy here made a few weeks ago that stuck with me:

http://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=2607618&forum_id=2#25849989

and for what it's worth, twin studies often show a bigger environmental effect on IQ than adoption studies do. identical twins reared apart show a significantly lower correlation in IQ than identical twins reared together, which implicates an environmental effect.

To be fair, the average juggalo is probably not far off from the average white, and some juggalos are above average.

Meanwhile, the op is talking about a half-black kid with a murderous parent.

Pretty sure the juggalo biodad had bodies on him. He definitely had a long sheet of violent crimes. And the mom was Mexican.

Sounds like the kid you know may not be that different from the op then.

To be fair, differences (interracial and intraracial) aren't as noticeable in young children.

http://abagond.wordpress.com/2012/02/28/black-people-according-to-the-1911-britannica/

intelligence: “the mental inferiority of the negro to the white or yellow races is a fact”. Black children were “sharp, intelligent and full of vivacity, but on approaching the adult period a gradual change set in. The intellect seemed to become clouded, animation giving place to a sort of lethargy, briskness yielding to indolence.”

I kinda know the feeling. My son is two, almost three, and I hope he's just going through a phase with flipping the fuck out right now, but he gets really violent when he's angry to the point where I found myself wondering recently "at what point do you know you're raising a bad seed?" Like, is this the start of something that ends with me on tv saying "he didn't do nuffin!"?
