Comment on My Samsung Ordeal by JG

I had a bad experience with Samsung support for this CLX-3175-FN printer, though not as bad as this. The scanner just stopped working, printing out random lines. The vendor washed their hands of it and referred me to manufacturer - fair enough. Called Samsung, who told me someone would be out from a contracted company to repair or replace. They never showed and from then on, I kept on getting bounced between Samsung support and this contractor who denied having any work ticket for fixing the printer until I just had to give up.

Incredibly frustrating but I was going to put it down as a once-off and maybe buy another Samsung until I read this article. I've read some other crazy Samsung support stories since this as well, steering well clear. Thanks for sharing!

Comment on Troubled Teens by ronitbaras

Dismayed parent,

I think blaming ourselves is not the solution.
Blaming is a way to get off load, for a short time. if we throw it on someone else we still carry it on our shoulders.

I disagree that it is the government's fault. I think kids live in a very tough world and they are scared, totally confused and scared and we as parents need to keep our kids away from lots of distractions and temptations, technology and media that only makes them more scared.

I agree that parents need to be empowered. I think if the government recognise that helping parents can contribute to society ( and save a fortune) we will be in a better place. I am not sure that I consider empowering parents and giving them permission to discipline is the same.
All those restrictions on parents were caused by parents who abused their power and harmed their kids, they were not caused by the government.
