Again. Common sense being legislated is ridiculous. People need to shut their fucking overactive mouths and work on things that actually matter. Sure people beat their kids. Its a law going to stop it? No. Is a severe beating, people noticing and calling the police and getting them in prison and having the kids moved to a more wholesome location, SHOOTING the fuckers, generally removing this filthy and evil aspect of society going to do anything?

In a word, YES. This is fucking common sense, guys. A law won't solve it, but less laziness, and more awareness for your fellow man. Get your fucking asses in gear instead of trying to tell people what to do. They won't obey you. Trust me.

It is common sense not to kill people whenever you feel they are being morons, yet there is legislation in place in most countries to punish you for it, should you decide to do it anyway. Why do you suppose that is?

Because people are retarded, dude.

The goals of the Swedish Government have been met.  It does work.  It has worked without the need to prosecute parents.  There has been no sharp increase in kids being taken away.  It has been 30 years, and i'm sure any ill effects would have become apparent by now.

Good for them. They admit to the need of common sense being legislated. Its beautiful, seeing people being able to admit to such stupidity.

Every goverment does it nowadays, and it actually started in America, or isn't it true that you have warning texts on screwdrivers that they should not be put into electrical sockets?

Seriously? I can't forget that stupid woman who sued McDonalds for burning herself on their coffee - and won the case!

Methinks Sweden is depressing 

Sometimes, yes.

But then, so is Finland.
