Author Topic: Child Punishment and your views on it.  (Read 8589 times)

There is a line between punishment, and abuse.

My dad spanked me with the belt for breaking rules. Punishment

My dad beat me because he was angry, or drunk. Abuse
People seem to get the two confused all the time.

Oh, punishment? The way I see it, punishment should get less "severe" as the child gets older
Agreed, i just get grounded now. No flying for me :c

I think spanking your child is completely fine.

shoot their foot to scare them a little

I think physical punishment should be saved for extremes that aren't technically illegal. Personally, when an authority figure gives me a talking to, I'm terrified. Not that it happens frequently (for just that reason actually).

I'm not against it, why? Because most parents do a damn thing about if their children does something wrong. and if they tell their kid "no", they'll think the kid will hate them forever and they are the worst parent ever.

Parents need to learn how to instill values when their kid is young, my mom said the other day that she doesn't think she has control over me, rather she knows I will do the right thing.

I say free candy for everyone
and randomly kill with space lazors

Parents not doing anything to distribute punishment and parents that beat the living forget out of their kids are two equally ineffective extremes.

You guys seem to be stuck on this idea that if you don't slap your kids on the ass repeatedly when they forget up that you're being so lenient it will cause them to grow up like Paris Hilton.

Whip them as hard as you feel is necessary.
So long as you don't leave marks. That's why you do it through clothing, and with thin objects. Although, they do leave red marks.

Didn't do the dishes? Smack them until they are done.
Skipped school? Give them a couple whacks for every hour they will miss, and some for lying and etc.
Got a chick pregnant? A thumbs up followed by a hard smacking on the ass.







That's my mothers opinion.

I don't think physical punishments are right unless it was harmful to someone else as well.
Ex. Your son gives a kid in school a bloody nose. A couple spanking followed by a non-physical punishment is what I feel would be necessary, unless he was standing up for himself. You gotta do it or else your life is living hell. :o

Kids are easily emotionally manipulated, assuming they aren't manipulating you.

Got a chick pregnant?
If I had a son that did that while underage I'd castrate the little stuff myself with a pair of hedgeclippers.

a belt to the face for anything that pisses me off.

IMO, if physical punishment is the absolute only thing that will work o a child, then that child is either severely lacking in intelligence or morals.

CHILD PUNISHMENT!?!?!?!

Sweet.

i was spanked all the time as a kid ;_;
