Guest jeff123456 Posted May 30, 2002 Share Posted May 30, 2002 Originally posted by crisis they don't know... one christmas morning (early christmas morning is by far the best time of year to get up) i got up all over town in all the highly visible spots i couldn't hit any other time. Then i was driving with my mom...and she said "oh look...somebodies been doing graffiti...they just did that like last night" (it had been like 3 nights) i said "where?....oh....yep" then two weeks later i was driving with my mom and my dad...and they saw another one of my pieces, and somebody was buffing it. my parents started talking about it: "there's some vandalism"..."yep, painting over some graffiti." then he started pronouncing it in all these weird ways...graff- IT - ey....GRAFF-i-tye. then i told him to shut up. then one day my mom asked me why i have so many big markers...and why i had a milk crate full of spray cans with the lids off. then she asked me if i was huffing...and said that was one way to really mess myself up. and i said no... I felt like showing her my respirator and reassuring her that i'm very cautious with harmful vapors. they probably won't know unless i get caught, which is bound to happen someday, hopefully after i move out. hmm sounds like ur close with ur family... i think most ppl like to spend time with there familys on christmas morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jeff123456 Posted May 30, 2002 Share Posted May 30, 2002 Originally posted by KaBar This thread is a real eye opener. I know a lot of my opinions aren't popular, and I try to stay out of straight graff threads because when all is said and done, I'm not all that knowledgeable about graff. I'm a graff patron , not a graff writer. It's my belief that fathers have a role to play in their kids' lives. I think a lot of you guys come from homes where your father has either not been present, or where he hasn't been very effective. I wasn't a perfect kid, and I'm sure not a perfect father. But, to quote from the movie "Tombstone"--"There's gotta be some law, Wyatt!" And I agree. The buck has to stop with somebody. In my family, it stops with me. We all know that there are some things in life that are prohibited, that we choose to do anyway. For me, it's trainhopping. I've never been popped, but I'm not bragging. I know that it's just a matter of time. If I had a kid under 18 who was into graff, I'd set some rules about it. I would help support any legal graff activity, including financing purchased paint, caps, magazines, etc. But I would specifically prohibit any violation of the law, and be clear that "if you get busted, you are paying the consequences." I would pay for attending expos or shows that featured graff. I would help seek legal sites. I would encourage development of style and technique. I think everybody needs a curfew. I don't stay out to all hours of the night, and I won't permit my kid to do so. We agree on a time, I expect her to abide by our agreement. She's usually ten minutes early. God only knows what kind of horrifying mischief she gets into before that, but she's not late for curfew. I told her when she was little, "I'll bail you out ONE TIME without any questions whatsoever. Don't waste it on some bullshit misbehavior." So far, so good. She got busted once, for MIP (minor-in-possession of alcohol: to wit, one beer.) The judge was easy-going about it. He sent her to Alcohol Awareness Class, and put her on suspended adjudication for six months. I was ten times as big a rule breaker as my kid, and not even one-tenth as good a student. It was a miracle I never got busted for any of the stupid shit I did. She got busted because she was young and naive. When I was a kid, we would have never been drinking on the street. We had the good sense to hide. Fathers are supposed to be protectors and providers. I can't run my kid's life for her. But she knows where I stand. I have told her many times, "Obey the Law." But she also knows that I'll come bail her out. At least, I 'll bail her out, once. hahah u have a kid and u come on this site? go spend some time with ur kid u fucking dumb 40yr old Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 87centHitMan Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 I know a few writers with kids that I'm 100% positive could burn your ass...Havin' kids really puts a damper on bombing, gettin' busted and all that could really screw some shit up. Having kids makes alot of writers quit, though. Too much responsibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tassie toy Posted June 14, 2002 Share Posted June 14, 2002 My parents are okay with peicing as long as in the day. I usually just say i'm going painting and tell them where i am and if it's legal or not and usually there fine with that. If I wanna go and paint late at night they wouldn't let me though, but mostly because they are worried about me getting bashed or caught. They both say they hate tags and they don't know I bomb. Mum always says she wishes I was interested in something else but she buys paint for me if it's for a school art project. My dad always point's out walls and says "oooh thats a nice wall to do some graffiti on" I think he's sort of joking but he doesn't care too much. I just don't want them to know I bomb.

Jewish Task Force Posted June 16, 2002 Share Posted June 16, 2002 sope, soap same thing. change your name or stop writing completely. Koc is also a respected crew. Just do yourself a favor you little shit and change hobbies. Graffiti isnt for you. There are rules and respect in this game and you obviously know nothing about that. Find something new to make yourself feel cool and make yourself think you are showing off to your freinds. Start inline skating or something.

Mr Fukshitup Posted June 19, 2002 Share Posted June 19, 2002 My mom worries about me getting caught and wants me to quit, sometimes she threatens to call the cops on me, but she never would. My dad is cool with it, he is just telling me to be careful out there. He also tells me to beware of the gases, like for instance painting indoors or in tunnels and such you ought to wear a gas mask.

kode Posted June 25, 2002 Share Posted June 25, 2002 As a parent and a writer I think there is a double standard when it comes to kids. I take my son and daughter with me when I'm hitting free zones. Hell my son sticker bombs the fuck out of shit. But as his gaurdian I don't want him doing any thing that is gonna get him or me in trouble. Remember parents did (and probably still do) all kinds of ill shit. However it's the old do as I say not as I do thing. So in short here's a $1.25 and go fuck yourself. :D I'm probably gonna catch hell for this but fuck you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
