Don't judge a book by its cover, unless it has bacon on the cover, then it is a good book.

-Me

Now I would like to start off by saying this thread is intended for mature discussion, if you are not capable of that, or if this topic gets you fired up please excuse yourself from this thread.

A spanking is different from a beating and if you have ever been beat I am sorry. Spankings seem to be seen as child abuse by the majority in this forum, and to quote a role model of mine Penn Jillette "That is BULL -blam!-".

I was spanked a few times as a child, most of the time it was a slap or two on the hand or if I did something really bad (like hit my sister with a baseball bat in the hand....long story), my dad would spank my ass. Never was I hit with a belt or a brush. I never had to be spanked more than once for something. I didn't want to be spanked again so I wouldn't perform this action again. Spankings were effective and unlike most people on the Flood I don't find them to be child abuse.

I love my parents even though they spanked me, I never worry about them hitting me (partially because I am as tall as my dad now). I remember when I cussed in front of my mom when I was 15, she popped me in the mouth, was I mad, sure, was I embarrassed sure. Was it abusive? Hell no and you can bet I will never cuss in front of her again. This was the last time I was "spanked" I guess you could say.

So Flood, what to you makes spanking so abusive? What is a spanking to you? a slap on the hand or the butt? or is a beating with a belt abusive to you?

My signature is rather loopy and elegant... I don't see a way to replicate this in text form. Do italics work? Yes, they do

Studies have shown that spanking can actually lower IQ. If that isn't abuse then I don't know what is.

Besides, it is my belief that parents are free to raise their children how they see fit, but I also believe spanking should not be necessary for parents doing a good enough job.

In my opinion, I don't care who laughs last or first. As long as I laugh in the process, everything is good.

That's hilarious. Your mom is awesome.

OT: I don't see any issue with a kid getting spanked.

I was spanked and all that and I love my parents. without it it turns the kid into some feral kid that never follows rules.

I'll discipline my child just like my parents to me, I want them to do what their told and not be a little -blam!-.

Nahman Jayden, Eff bee eye. I herd that you're the origammy killah...

If i ever -blam!- up i'd get the belt D:
Not too pleasant :|
It did teach me to follow rules and not be some idiot, however, so i'm grateful for that.

I think I've turned out all right 4.0 GPA, National Social Studies honors society member. My parents are anything but lazy, they used it as a reinforcer. Like I said I was never beat I was popped on the hand or the butt a few times. Never really had to spank me, they just did when I was really defiant.

  • 01.03.2013 7:56 PM PDT

My parents just slapped me wherever was available, not on the face though. Of course if I wasn't as small I'd have hit them back.

Inappropriate. Went a little to far with the butt hole tearing.

Just got spanked a bit.

I remember seeing on the news that spanking was bad.

I was like

"Hey, spanking is bad now!"

I'm 23 now, and they just stopped.

  • 01.03.2013 7:57 PM PDT

Wow, just wow!

I was physically punished as a child, and I believe it served me well. IMO, it is one of the best ways to train a child, regardless of what others may claim.

Man, I got the belt.

The buckle end, too.

I'm glad I was spanked and whipped by a belt.

It builds character.

Spankings that are hand in hand with explaining to your child what they did wrong is best. It is also important to note that expressing love to a child afterwards is pivotal.

I got spanked. It didn't work. But other, better, modern methods did.

yea they always came and talked to me, told me they loved me and that they didn't want to spank me but that I need to respect them. I was never spanked for no reason

lolno.

If your parents just send you to your room, that's -blam!- lazy.

I've been hit a few times when I really deserved it, and I think it helped.

Bro, do you remember when you first got the belt?
Eventually you get used to it, but the first time is pretty painful, especially the Buckle end. I agree that it builds character. Sometimes, kids can get out of hand otherwise

I am a monument to all your sins

I think I was spanked once or twice when I was a kid. I don't mind, sometimes kids really deserve it. I don't think it is strictly speaking necessary though, plenty of kids turn out fine without the threat of physical harm.

I got timeout if a spanking wasn't necessary and it typically wasn't. Now I am just grounded if I get in trouble
