Remember those times when we all had something better to be doing, but didn't do it? Those were good times. Gooood times

I find spanking is abusive as your are intentionally inflicting physical and emotional harm to a child by spanking them.

Spanking is the repetitive smacking of a child's rear end.

Beating with a belt is definitely abusive...and painful.

Stop banning me please.

Spanking is an effective discipline. Nothing deters bad behavior like the threat of pain.

If your parents need to spank you they are lazy as -blam!-.

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.

What's lazy is not sitting the child down and explaining to him or her what they did wrong and why they shouldn't do it. Then they must realize that their actions will have consequences if they do it again.

It's not that -blam!- hard unless your kid isn't right in the head.

GT: Clerks

My parents smacked me a couple times, and a teacher hit me once.

I can tell you, in a society where it is not the norm and where it is perceived as abuse, I felt isolated by these instances.

Looking back, I realize how angry and frustrated my parents were (at life, at me) and I certainly only felt anger and incommunicable frustration after getting hit by my parents and it also made me feel like they were crazy.

I do not think I am a better person for these experiences. It took a lot of good friendships and lovers to get me to be comfortable with physical intimacy.

Now, the only parents I ever see hit their kids are trashy trashy people who live in the city I do and one parent with extreme anger issues.

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

well a spanking is obviously going to hurt, otherwise no one would spank anyone.

Or if they're stubborn like I was and try to get the last word in and be disrespectful despite previous warnings.

I was never spanked or embarrassed by my parents and now I respect them enough to actually listen to them.

Why Bungie, why would you do this?! - Halo Community

Time to get out the belt...

The human element always mucks things up.

-Be a jerkface
-Get spanked
-No more me being a jerkface

The system works people!

Don't do anything you wouldn't want to have to explain to paramedics. Trust me, I'm a pilot.

To me, spanking is abusive in the sense that it allows to the child the idea that hitting is okay, while at the same time making the child fearful of the person in power, be it parent or guardian.

Personally, I think there are much more effective ways of punishing a children than hitting them; you can temporarily take away a valued possession, you can place them in a corner, or you can threaten them by or by not doing something. The list goes on, but there are plenty of alternatives. Of course, only the parents know their children best, so it is up to the parent which punishment should be used.

I was never spanked as a child by my parents. All my parents had to do was threaten me with something I valued, and I knew better than to keep doing what I was doing. I would say I turned out alright; I'm a licensed glider pilot, have a great average, and will be going into mechanical engineering next year. I think that, with so many other effective alternatives to spanking available to parents, spanking should be somewhere near the bottom of that list.

If you did that time and time again after being told not to I can see why your parents may have resorted to physical punishment, if nothing else out of pure frustration.

Man, I got the belt.

The buckle end, too.

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

It builds character.
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


Damn straight I remember when I first got the belt. After church one night when I was about 5 or 6 years old. And man did it hurt.

I made sure I listened to my parents after that.

  • 01.03.2013 8:12 PM PDT

+1 for you good sir.

Because the only form of punishment aside from spanking the child is doing nothing and sending them to their room

Seems like a very short-term solution.

If it's done often enough I can see how a child can grow to have some resentment towards their parents.

Lets say I hit my sister. I would get spanked for it, I would not want to be spanked again because it hurt, therefore I would not hit my sister again. I guess it depends on the child, but it wasn't short term with me.

You're parents could have also had a serious talk with you and threatened you (not in an intimidating or frightening way) with something that you value.

Of course some people can be spanked and grow up to be fine. Some, of it's done with enough frequency can grow up to have negative feelings towards their parents.
