Batman Slapping Robin

Child abuse.

To be fair he said discipline. It's not hitting someone to inflict pain on them It's to teach them to be a better person

Justifying why you are hitting someone is still hitting someone.

It's abuse.

There two different words discipline isn’t full on hitting them.

Example you learn a swear at a young age and say it front of your parents they will discipline you to say ‘don’t do it again if you want another smack’

:)

Hitting your children is abuse.

If you spank a child when they say a cuss word that isn't abuse. A mega slap on the face for no reason is abuse

Hitting a child is hitting a child, regardless of how you justify it.

If you cannot tell the difference between the two then you’re a special kind of stupid.

Inflicting pain is inflicting pain, period.

LOL, ripcowbelly is an idiot, period.

No name calling bruh. Cheers.

Oh yeah, sorry about that.

Ummm...yes?

The two people who cannot understand the difference between violence and discipline are morons. You might as well let them continue their moronic lives. Not worth your time to try and fix stupid. ripcowbelly specializes in being a moron.

It doesnt matter the reason, you’re still hurting a child.

So? what if the kid hits someone else? what if they do something like steal? ur just gonna give them a talK? no

If the only way you know how to teach and guide children into being functional adults is enacting violence on them you have failed at being an adult and a parent.

I have 2 boys. I haven't hit them. I have explained to them why you don't hit people and why you don't take things from other people. They don't steal. They don't hit.

Just because you tell them, doesn't mean they will listen 100% of the time. You can't 100% Guarantee that they will never do that. and I'm not saying that I doubt them, but you never know what happens next. And I'm not saying violence isn't the only way, its only if it's that serious

They're children. Of course they don't listen 100% of the time.

Beating your kids doesn't change that.

Look, saying "Don't hit someone else or I'll hit you!" doesn't send the right message.

You're telling them that violence on the weaker is fine.

If you don't hit them and tell them that violence is wrong, that's the right message. It doesn't mean don't punish the behavior. You can set rules and boundries for your children without hitting them.

I agree. I’m glad to see someone else feels the same way about this subject.

A spank and a beating are two different things, bruh

Hitting a child is hitting a child. Don't fool yourself because you're not looking the kid in the eyes when you beat their ass.

I’m 12 i dont hit children because how would I and you idiot i got spanked and I am a straight a student with no detentions, iss or anything, accelerated classes

So you're smart because your parents beat you?

Even at 12, you think that's how things work?

Bruh you freaking idiot I wasn’t beaten i got a slapp on the bootycheex if i did something that my dad repeatedly not to do. Plus, I didn’t say i was smart because i was spanked I said that I was obedient and successful because I was disciplined as a child.

*told me not to do

TMI TMI TMI we don't care if you dad slapped your rear

I leave you with a smort picture in hope that you will look at it and it will rid you of your stupidity. I will be praying that your children dont end up spoiled and rotten because you were afraid to show backbone and discipline your child.

There are other forms of punishment.

Well if I had a child that stole something, no way In hell I'm not gonna give them a spanking.

I'd make them work to pay for it. The punishment should fit the crime by being it's natural consequences.

Ok fine, your kid hurts someone else that didn't deserve it, like they made them bleed, now what

There must be something they can do for that kid to try to make up for it. *raises hand* Hey, quick question: Why are your kids so brutal?!

It's not happening enough

I think it teaches violence in young children. I think hitting your child should only happen when absolutely necessary. My older sister used to be abused by my father over eating ketchup and eggs. That, is unnecessary. My younger step brother who is very likely autistic got beat for not eating his chicken nuggets. So, like I said, I think hitting your child is mainly wrong, unless it's absolutely necessary.

Of course this is only my opinion. I was abused too as a child so I know how it feels.

The exception literally is the rule. Obviously this is sarcasm. It explains however why children either grow up to hit their own children OR foment the debate as a adults in turn when the abuse is recognized. Either way the culture propagates until it is overturned.

Edit: until the belief system is overturned.

Corporal punishment as a form of discipline let's kids know that there are consequences for misdeeds. It is the administrator of the punishment's responsibility to explain why it's being used and ensure the recipient understands. It is the recipients responsibility to understand and show remorse.

Punishment is a balance. Both sides have to do their part or else it's a waste of time and energy.

The examples we see in public everyday are nonsensical. Parent's claim it's discipline, but it's closer to child abuse. It's lazy parenting. It's leaving the house without a plan and assuming the kids are mindreaders and onboard with the parents' objectives.

I'm all for it, but I've never used it. I've never had to. I've always explained my objectives to my kids and what their part is in that plan. If they have objections, then they're addressed before hand and compromises and changes are made if they apply. If they don't, they have to grin and bear it, but with an explanation and a clear view of the objective. My kids know I have it in me to strike. I'm no angel. But I am mentally and emotionally balanced enough to have the presence of mind to know when to apply it.

Yeah I saw a kid get a public spanking with a paddle by his dad for not eating his food at a fancy restaurant. That is abuse. I mean. You can literally have it to go, but the dad was so stupid that he would not accept that he was wrong. The mom was ban on the kids side though

*on the kids side

It's abuse.

I feel like it’s child abuse

Fun for the whole family

no seriously it's child abuse

How old are you

13

It’s not child abuse if it’s like a spanking but if they’re like punching you that’s child abuse

Well, it's not child abuse. But most people in this world highly recommend it. Corporal punishment can lead to can lead to increased aggression, antisocial behavior, physical injury and mental health problems for children. There's a lot of proof out there that a kid who gets spanked by adults are more likely to become a criminal and go to prison.

I got spanked and I’m fine but sometimes it needs to be done. Some of my little cousins don’t get spanked and they are sort of spoiled and really rude

One could argue that your support for corporal punishment is proof that you're not fine, but that violence inflicted on the young begets more violence.

I wonder if you could say "corporal punishment" again....? It really makes you sound smart. If you say it like 50 times, I hear you grow an extra brain. Keep it up and you will have more than zero brains.

*yawn*

I got spanked and I haven't had one since I was 7, so 5 years, and I'm pretty much a teacher's pet. Not really a teacher's pet just a good kid

You're probably a boomer.

Makes sense. 12 yr old boomer

what a lame "insult"

How is that an Insult? I wasn't even trying to insult him.

And you’re probably a millennial ponytailed man working as a barista at Starbucks

Look, you got spanked as a child. Good for you. Whoever spanked you probably enjoyed causing you pain. That's none of my business, because I have never been spanked before and I will never be.

My dad is a great person. He is Christian and he puts his life in danger to teach people in India about Jesus. He does not like causing pain.

you never denied to being a boomer

Bruh I’m 12

ok

oops *highly UNrecommend*

what if they both hurt the same?
