Topic	Is whipping your kid with your belt child abuse?
Vindris_SNH 05/09/18 3:05:27 PM #105:	Spanking, used as a form of discipline (not done purely out of anger or frustration), helps develop character and a healthy respect for authority in children. Biased studies wont show you this, because they cant possibly take into account every single factor that goes into the proper spanking of a child (things like the parents state of mind while spanking the child, whether or not the child was aware they were doing something wrong and warned before the spanking, whether or not the rule the child was expected to follow was reasonable, etc.). There is a fine line between abuse and discipline. Many people think spanking teaches violence, but that is not the case. Used properly, it will teach children at a young age to associate pain with wrongdoing, which is exactly what any other form of discipline is designed to do. However, spanking sends the message immediately and clearly, which is why it can be such an effective form of discipline, and which is why children who are spanked by loving parents are generally much more well behaved than children who arent spanked. Only an ignorant and/or naive person will make a blanket statement claiming that all spanking is always bad. If properly employed, spanking is an effective, safe, and healthy method of discipline. --- glitteringfairy: Just build the damn wall ThyCorndog: and how exactly will that stop the mexican space program from orbital dropping illegal immigrants? <cite>Vindris_SNH posted [p:901065217] in Is whippin...
