Is it normal to discipline your friends?

6 Comments

Some friends are weird, we all know this, but violent friends? Some students keep talking to me about the one girl that is always pulling their hair and scratching them with her long nails. A few have bled from scratches but nobody cries or leaves her or anything. She threatens them and things like brandishing scissors in their faces. This girl makes an effort to look different, be independent, confident, and just a bit terrifying. But she also acts vulnerable and can be uber cute when it suits her. She is definitely manipulative, but is that normal for a 14 year old girl with a not so good home life? Is the discipline ( hair pulling, scratching, threats ) some attempt to control or what? Does she need help from somebody? She won't talk about it at all, and never let's anyone see her sad if she can help it, or denies anything is wrong insisting that "is just what my face looks like without an expression". Is all this normal?

    You are misusing the word "discipline", actually she's assaulting them.

    She sounds quite disturbed mentally and I'm puzzled by the use of the word "friend" in this context. She certainly needs help but I'm afraid I have no suggestions of how you could arrange for this to happen if she's denying anything is wrong.

    Do you have a school counsellor you could talk to for some ideas on how to handle this? At the very least she should be stopped from attacking people, that's not accpetable

    I think you have no clue what the word "discipline" means. That's not discipline, it's spoiled brat behaviour.

      You're correct it's not discipline but I think it's a lot more serious than just spoiled brat behavior: she sounds quite disturbed to me

    Get people to stop hanging out with her if she bites them or whatever. This is up to her friends to let her know they don't like it when she does it, or she'll keep doing it.

    If what you are describing is half as bad as you stated, this girl needs to be removed from society and placed in a mental facility for evaluation IMMEDIATELY, before she seriously injures or kills someone, or herself.
    No mentally healthy 14 year old should act like this and if left unattended, she WILL cause herself or someone else serious injury. Why wait until this happens? Report her to the proper authorities at school; this girl needs HELP, now!

    Punch that little cunt in the throat, that ought to teach her!

    Just kidding, don't punch her in the throat, that could cause serious injury. I would recommend dumping the stupid little cunt. Being raised by dysfunctional family is not an excuse to start nasty little cat fights. You could always study some martial arts, and learn to block or disarm her, but either way I think you should dump her.
