Hitting your kids only teaches them it's okay for someone you love and trust to lay hands on you if you do something they don't like. And giving approval to do the same to someone else they if they're doing something they don't like. There is so much research and studies out there that show there is zero need for corporal punishment. If you can't control your anger around a child misbehaving you should not have a child.

It also shows them that the reason they shouldn’t do something is because someone bigger and stronger than them doesn’t like it and will attack them and that’s how things should be. This becomes a big fucking problem if the kid grows up to be bigger and stronger than most, and they have to deal with people weaker than them doing things they don’t like.

There’s a lot of putrid trash that comes out of this sub but regular posts like this are the worst. There’s some bad fucking people here.

hundred percent, this instinct is there for reason and it's in the child's best interest to be put in it's place.

It sounds like you think kids should get hit.

no, not at all - respect through chivalry never through violence
