Spanking is the second laziest form of parenting after only not parenting at all and letting your kids do whatever they want without repercussion.

Someone's looking to start an argument

A redundant argument because the answer to anyone who isn't ignorant is clear.
Child psychology experts and the multiple studies showing correlation with
being hit as a child to increased rates of depression and such have come to the near unanimous agreement that hitting your kids is bad. The only thing people in favor of it can say are things like "I was spanked as a child and I turned out fine!" and "The facts you're saying are invalid because you don't have kids so you just don't get it."

The fact of the matter is it's just simply lazy parenting and people who won't actually take responsibility and do their job as a parent. If they're old enough to be reasoned with and punished in more effective ways then you should be doing that, if they're too young for that then why the fuck are you hitting them for something they can't even understand?
Spanking and hitting is for people who are lazy and just want to hit their kid, say don't do whatever you just did again, and be done with it.

It's mind boggling that people will accept you hitting a child of all things, yet if you did that same thing to an adult, you'd likely have assault charges pressed on you.

Yes.

Yep.

As if I give a fuck what other people think, especially the ones who were never spanked themselves, as there's an incredibly high chance they ended up as shitty people due to a lack of discipline growing up.

Wouldn't be shocked to find out their own kids are absolute terrors too for the same reason, assuming they have any of course, because surprise-surprise it's *always* the people who don't have kids (or have never been around any at all) that always condemn spanking and think alternate methods actually work.

This is not a justification for everyone who spanks their kids, but maybe when your kid won't listen to reason or any other form of punishment and continue to do whatever they want, whenever they want, because they couldn't give any flying fucks about it or what anyone else thinks or tells them to do they see no other option?

Honestly, the verbal abuse I received from my father was way worse on me psychologically then any spanking I ever received (including with a belt) as a child.

Oh, get the fuck over it. I was abused as a kid. Cigarettes put out on my back, broken bones, once even got pushed out of a moving car.

For you to even speak of spanking in the same fucking conversation as "golly gee, my dad is throwing beer bottles at me because I was coughing too loud, due to him kicking me in the chest because I was in his way" is an insult to those of us who were actually abused.

I know everyone else didn't, and I never said peoples experiences weren't valid. The flaw with the "I was spanked and turned out fine" argument isn't that I'm saying you're wrong and you actually didn't turn out fine, the problem is that you're not a mind reading psychic that knows how your kid will respond to it. Multiple studies and the unanimous agreement of experts come to the conclusion that you're risking negative psychological impact on your child significantly more from hitting them than with other more effective forms of punishment. You don't know where someone I going to end up from that until they're older and either they're fine or they're not fine.
Parents jump through so many hoops to ensure their child's safety and well being yet when it comes down to something like this idiots will go "ehh fuck the risks, they'll probably be fine" because then they'd actually have to deal with their kids like a normal person and that's just too much work... Or sometimes it's not wanting to do more work but just straight up ignorance and the "my parents hit me so I should hit mine too!" thought process. Which also keep in mind that spanking kids is linked with them not only growing up and repeating that behavior on their kids, but also with higher raters of domestic abuse and other forms of intimate partner abuse because to the surprise of nobody with common sense, raising kids through their developmental years on the logic of "I'm hitting you because I love you" can have really fucked up results.

The fact is that you're notably increasing your child's risk of a variety of types of issues by spanking them over more effective forms of parenting and you'll never know which side of the statistics your kid ends up on until it's too late. If you want to stay ignorant to that basic facts then fine, but it doesn't change the facts. Don't unironically cry "snowflakes" while intentionally choosing to deny basic facts that don't agree with you, it comes off pathetic. Again, just, stop your bullshit identity politics.

I'm not going to get into a contest of saying "oh yeah? Your piece of shit family did that? Well mine did this!"
I never said spanking is as bad as straight up assault, but guess what? That doesn't make spanking okay either. I could tell you things that happened to me and tell you things that happened to you aren't a big deal, then someone could say the same to me, then someone else to them, and so on until the end of time.
Just because there's always something worse doesn't make the lesser versions of things okay either.

This is also a pretty good point. Considering you're very likely to repeat that cycle of behavior or think it's okay because it happened to you, it does take at at least some level of issues for you to convince yourself that it's okay to hit a child.

Maybe discipline isn't always the number #1 value you should strive to instill in your kids.

Yes, because you aren't committing physical violence on a small child for misbehaving in those scenarios. And experts agree that is worse.

Massive C.

Child psychology blah blah horse shit.
We were all spanked when we acted up. So were my parents and aunts. So were my grandparents. We all turned out just fine. Those who don't are nothing but sissy whiners to begin with that needed more spanking if anything. Hell we got pulled by the hair and had homemade super spicy chili rubbed in our mouths when we talked back. And no this wasn't over every little thing. This was when we were being turds and deserved it. And guess what? We all learned to cut the shit out that was getting us punished or at least become more sneaky about it to get away with things.

You don't reason with a child. A child is a brat sometimes and incapable of understanding reason.
And I would rather risk "negative psychological impact" on my kid than risk them turning out a worthless crybaby.

I know it's anecdotal but my kids behave and I have never had to lay a finger on them. Granted I actually treat my kids like people and I also insure there are consequences for their actions.

Take for example, if we are out in public and they decide they want to misbehave, they have one chance to turn that behaviour around or else we go home. Guess what? I have lost out on things that I have wanted to take me kids to because they weren't behaving. It sucks for me because I enjoy watching them have fun, but it sucks worse for them because they are the ones that actually lose out on the fun.

It has always puzzled me how people get peeved at the idea of being told to not hit their kids. I hear from defenders that they son't like doing it and only do it in extreme circumstances, so why be so defensive about it when society and experts tell you that you can stop doing it because it isn't helping? Are we really such creatures of habit that even being told to stop doing things that we already don't like doing makes us defensive?

You obviously don't have any experience with children if you think this. Children are absolutely capable of reason as early as 2 years old, if not earlier.

While I agree with you that spanking is probably not the best option, I wonder how studies were conducted to determine if spanking is harmful. I'm assuming psychologist just had to use real world data gathering rather than conduct tests since testing would be unethical. In that case, I could see a correlation with bad parents (ones who don't just spank, but also use neglect and verbal abuse) utilizing spanking more often than good ones, hence the increase in a child developing behaviour problems and depression when older.

I think that's why you see a lot of people who were spanked as a kid but say they turned out fine. To ignore them would be ignoring the data the child psychologist I'm sure have gathered (though "turning out fine" is very subjective to begin with). Perhaps spanking was used as a last resort when all types of others punishment/conditioning has failed.

I cannot and will never understand justifying hitting a child.

You're hitting a child.

The argument of "I got hit so I'll hit" is stupid as fuck. Just because something bad happened to you doesn't make it right. If you hit a child for any reason you're a bad person, end of story.

We all turned out just fine.

Compared to what? Your other lives? The data suggests you could have likely turned out better without it.

"I got hit and I turned out fine" Well you turned into an abusive parent so no, you didn't turn out fine.

Looking at all the people arguing against spanking here. I'm positive you're all worthless crybabies.
I weep for the future.

You don't reason with a child. A child is a brat sometimes and incapable of understanding reason.
And I would rather risk "negative psychological impact" on my kid than risk them turning out a worthless crybaby.

You obviously don't have any experience with children if you think this. Children are absolutely capable of reason as early as 2 years old, if not earlier.


Going further, kids do not become worthless crybabies because they were not spanked. That is such an ignorant position.

Well ya that too. Lol

D, I say this every time this topic comes up, hitting your kids doesn't teach them shit. I was hit when I was a kid and it didn't teach me shit except anger. I have a child and I'd never hit him.

hitting isnt the same as spanking

I am very clearly trolling and doing a bad job at it to boot.
