Is hitting your kids ok?

^ This is pretty much how I feel about hitting children, seeing I don’t like to see children getting hit myself.

Just one thing I need to know: did you whoop that guy’s ass who spit on you? His child would’ve learned another lesson today.

I don’t recall ever being hit as a child, seeing I was a spoiled brat who had everything handed to him. Did I do stupid shit as a child? Yes. Do I still do it now? No. Why? Because seeing I have an uncle whose either a cop or a captain of some sort of squad who can lay me out whenever the situation comes, I don’t risk it. However, seeing I’m the “bright” child compared to my cousin, I’m guessing that’s why.

It’s ok, asian parents hit their kids :sunglasses:

This is quite possibly one of the funniest threads on SRK.

Uh yes kids need their ass whooped. That pussy ass your grounded shit isn’t punishment. A good belt to the ass is a punishment you don’t wont to experience again so kids learn faster. I turned out just fine, and there’s no one in the world I love or respect more then my mother and she used to beat the black off me when I got out of line.

IM SWITCHING TO KICKING MY KIDS FROM NOW ON

The Demon Pimp usually knows the right way to handle things. :tup:

^This right here. A parent is the FIRST teacher. Your kids learn more from you than anyone else, so teach 'em right. Like Spideyman said, disciplne, not abuse. Believe me, if they grow up thinking they can act however they want, they will try it. Worse, they will have kids of their own who will learn from them what they learned from their parents.

-Starhammer-

my wife came from an abusive father. she has 5 brother and 5 sisters. they all got beat with antennas, extension cords, fly swatters, baseball bats, belts, pretty much anything her dad could get his hands on. my wife even has burn marks all over her hands cause her dad would burn them with his cigarettes. you gotta teach them young to stay in line or else they’ll catch a smack to the head or on the ass. you don’t have to beat the shit out of them, just a smack will do. the whole time out/go to your room bullshit doesn’t do crap.

This is more in line with what ought to be done.

Generally, that’s where therapy comes in; parents need to start realizing that if you ever have to cross the line into ‘beating’ that your kid is probably not responding to it in a healthy manner.

You’re fucking dumb, and ought to be ashamed of yourself.

I’d be surprised you don’t get your ass whooped for way you act, but then again I doubt you act like this IRL.

How the fuck does that make sense? So, teach our kids to beat people when they’re dissatisfied, but not to swear? At least your SN is accurate; stay free.

Actually, kids get beat all the time over here, and its more often the ones beat that are doing the school shootings, gangbanging, and other stupid bullshit. Why? Not simply because they were hit, but rather because they were abused. And too few parents know the difference. Do you? I doubt it.

All races have their own stupid version of child abuse, and I call foul on it all.

Dude, slapping your children isn’t the issue here, although I agree there are many ignorant whiteys that don’t understand that a child in their initial years of growing up is going to have trouble with logic and reasoning, and thus will need some physical reactions to recall upon for determining right or wrong. Problem is that you also need to start introducing logic and reasoning at some point after toddlerhood, lest they begin to walk the path of the ign’ant ass nigga.

Spanking is like any other punishment imo. I think taking something they like best from them is the best punishment. My mom’s best punishment was not let me play video games. When I couldn’t play Donkey Kong 64 I got my shit together.

Why am I dumb and what should I be ashamed of?

For starters, how about the fact that, through your language, you essentially condoned the abuse your wife went through, which sounds like hell. No disclaimer or anything.Second, any form of punishment that is undesirable for your child is adequate, but they have to desire what you’re taking from them, be it playtime or a possession. Time out doesn’t do much if they don’t mind it, but if, say, they’re the active hopping-around types… And confiscation of anything must be of adequate value; they have to cherish it, because when you take it from them, they’ll begin to understand what happens when you do wrong.

Although, at least you understand the value of a smack.

There’s no reason to ever hit a child. It’s strange that something that is considered battery/assault if done to an adult, is ok to do to your kid. Studies show that spanking increases aggression and is linked to mental health problems like anxiety, depression, addiction and low IQ. Their are much better ways to discipline a child that don’t have the aforementioned negative consequences, you just have to be patient and learn to control your frustration like an adult.

You have a wife that has gone through severe physical abuse as a child and you still think it’s ok to hit kids? It also sounds like you are condoning what your shit bag of a father in law did to your wife. Please don’t have kids, or if you already do, leave them in the woods so that a pack of wolves can raise them and give them a chance at a better life.

therapists clean up the shit that we should of been taught to handle ourselves

im sure he didn’t convey his message properly (atleast I hope he didnt :confused:)

correct communication with child will turn “dissatisfaction” into “family moral collectivity”

nobody is promoting kids being abused

child neglect and abuse is definitely foul play

you are naive if you think basic logic is enough to communicate to every single child, children are supposed to be nurtured, if you raise your kid in an unruly area then you will get your criminals and gangsters. people like you contribute towards state control over families when they should be focusing on bettering the schooling system, career planning and progression for parents, and less popularization of properganda and nonsense on tv and an emphasize on educating and practicing health improvements via foods and activities

Hitting kids and beating your children are 2 different things. Like I said before I have 3 kids and they are great. Even though they are young they all get straight A’s in school, they have manners and even they know they are not getting beat. My wife also will agree with me, kids need to get smacked every once and a while. Just saying no and stop that doesn’t always work. Neither one of us has ever used a belt or anything else, just a quick smack to the ass or back of the head will do.
I in no way condone what my father in law did in the past. I think its horrible and I’ve told my wife that if I ever met her dad it would be hard for me not to kick the shit out of him. She hasn’t seen him in years and could give a shit about him.

The two main arguments in support of hitting kids so far:

  1. Kids are stupider now. (They’re not.) Kids get hit less now. (Probably true.) This proves that kids need to be hit. (It doesn’t.)

  2. My parents hit me all the time and I turned out fine. (No, you didn’t.)

Again, I ask: proof?

O yea man, ill beat their ass… At SFII!

I cant believe you allowed a man to spit in your face and didn’t do shit…

And does your wife ever misbehave, refuse to do her chores or answer back? I bet not!

Sounds like your daddy-in-law raised a troop of exemplary citizens. If any of them ever ended up in jail or something like that, well, he probably didn’t hit them hard enough.

If you’re going to punish your kids with beatings then you’ve gotta be consistent about it.

I lost my respect for my parents when I realized that my younger siblings were getting away with shit that I would have gotten the belt for at their age.

Yeah thats like…serious pushover stuff.
