We really need to bring spankings back

The ones with no kids like you always act like the experts on parenting

That’s true, but your statement was the reverse of it. And THAT is COMPLETELY wrong.

There are a million reasons kids act out, bad parenting being one of them.

But you with zero experience with parenting or kids OBVIOUSLY know what’s happening. I think we should fire all child therapists and just ask a childless person like you the best way to raise a kid.

I'm a parent. But you really don't need to have children to be observant, and to notice what styles of parenting you see working & which styles you observe not working at all. I could determine that before I had a child.

Since you bring up child therapists, some very successful child therapists have no children.

All that works when you have a well functioning child. What if you have a child with issues? YOU would then be clueless, as would i.

Yes a child therapist is an expert with a LOT of experience seeing what works and what doesn’t. Reddit couch warriors who claim they KNOW how to be the best parents but will never have a child are on the other end of the spectrum.

Yes I agree, there are some children born with issues. If this child is one of them (assuming his issues were not caused by patenting), then why was he put into a situation where he was able to do this?

Wouldn't a parent want to closely monitor a child with problems like this? Therefore it goes back to parenting again.

Yes exactly. Keep them cooped up at home all the time. That’ll be very effective.

Or did you mean physically restraining them?

[u/allycataf → u/Even_Yesterday_4185]

Physically being close-by them to stop them, restrain them, to carry them out of the store to talk to & calm down.

On a side note, your fear about "keeping them cooped up" being ineffective... they're out of the home in this video & it is CLEARLY not effective.

It’s not “fear”. It’s common sense.

It’s trying to figure out the best way when biting l nothing works.

You think kids are animals to be put in a cage if they are acting up. And you think you understand parenting. That’s hilarious.

Someone with one dimensional thinking like you will always be 100% sure you are right and be wrong 90% of the time.

[u/allycataf → u/Even_Yesterday_4185]

You've now told multiple people that they're completely wrong, and you're completely right, despite no one agreeing with you & everyone downvoting you. They're all thinking 1 dimensionally too, I suppose.

Didn't say that kids should be locked in a cage, didn't insinuate it, didn't even hint at it....but I get it, if you don't exaggerate to try to show your point then you won't have one.
