People spank their kids because they dont do what theyre told, because they mouth off, dont listen, who knows how many other reasons. Theres no group of parents out there that only spank their kids to keep them from jumping in front of a bus.

Believing that hitting your kids is beneficial to them in the long run in 2020 is the same as still believing the Earth is flat or that humans aren't having an impact on climate change. The vast majority of medical experts have come to the same conclusion that hitting kids is not good for their development but you pick and choose anecdotal evidence to continue with your ignorant, outdated belief that you're actually parenting them thr right way.

But it's not hitting, it's spanking!

Dunno if you're arguing against me,but this helps me. Because I'm not denying abusers exist. Im arguing that all spankings aren't abuse. Im just arguing against those saying you should literally never spank a child.

I'm good. If I ever knock up someone, I'll give them a really hard look. I can promise you that much.

Also, for the record. I have a dog that I don't hit. Because nothing he does is malicious and I don't allow him in harms way in the first place. In a perfect world, they are not bad enough to ever need to be swatted. But most people who don't have kids have this fantasy in their head that they will have the golden plan and their kid won't ever have any bad or dangerous habits. Shits unrealistic. It's just a very final option. Like I said, when you feel like the alternative would be them learning their lesson through getting hit by a car or getting 2nd degree burns. Do you guys think your kid just isn't gonna hurt themselves? Or would you rather them get hurt worse, just so you don't have to be the one to "betray" them.

I have two kids, an 8 year old and a 4 year old and hitting them has never even been a consideration for me or my wife because its not an effective way to discipline your children. Do some research.

Are you going to spank the child after they touch the hot stove or before? Why didnt you just pull them away? Im not arguing against you because Im coming into the middle of a topic but I am saying youre not really providing any instances where hitting your kids is beneficial except for your own convenience.

"I have to hit my kid to teach them to not run into the street" is one of the wildest things I've ever heard.

A little better response. Yeah yeah yeah, study says this, study says that. Experts say "Pump your kids with medication and fill our pockets instead". Studies say "This specific group we use to support our preconceived views gave us these results that we were looking to get"

Man, Im not living my life by manufactured statistics and experts who have their hands in pockets or their views made up and will only use the results that support those views
Putting feels before reals, I see. This is just anti-vaxxer logic.

Im cleaning my house now and don't wanna be distracted. You guys just rest easy knowing I don't plan on having any kids. And I don't tell others how to raise theirs.

"should" is, for the most part, not even a part of the conversation. at least not the way I approach it.

"spanking" and "physical abuse" have been linked to the same outcomes pertaining to mental health (and other metrics -- I'll link at the end of my post), suggesting that they are not distinct behaviours. part of the problem is that people have preconceived notions about what constitutes "abuse", and those notions pretty explicitly exclude "spanking" from the definition.

I don't approach it from an angle of what people "should" or "shouldn't" do, but to describe the way things are: objectively speaking, spanking is abusive. parents who spank their kids are being physically abusive.

(notice that I didn't moralize it here -- I didn't say anything was "good" or "bad." "abusive" is a clear, objective description of many things that some parents do. spanking is one of those things.)

The difference being I would've preferred a spanking
I've thought the same thing at times. Instead, I got the speeches about guilt and I have to tell you, that wasn't real good for my self esteem.

I also remember the few vicious beatings I got. 2-3 swats on the ass half-heartedly from my mom. Boy, after that, I couldn't sit down for like 10 seconds.

Can't do that either. That's a beating, according to people in this topic. You are laying your hands on a child and causing them physical discomfort.

spanking is abuse, but that doesn't mean it's the only form of abuse. whether or not someone "would've preferred" one over the other is irrelevant -- they're both still abusive

Sorry m8, I really am - I really do understand. I wish I could appear as an adult to my young self and hug him hard, but that kid is gone now.. long gone

This is as much as I'll get into it because I cannot
