Do/did you spank your children? Did your parents ever physically discipline you?

Exactly. I've always hated the comments like we won't remember when grow up, or that it builds character. There's no reason to strike a child, and an adult can often not realize just how hard they're hitting a child.

I'm glad you don't. I used to believe in spanking but now I think it's wrong to hit a child

Yeah I got beat so ****in bad as a kid lmao. Wooden stick, leather belt, the lot. Getting battered is pretty normal in my community and have never held any grudges against my parents for their militant parental style although my mother did express huge regret I her later years. That said we're hoping to have kids soon and we would never even think of doing it but I don't really look down on those who do it for the purpose of instilling discipline in their child. If you're a sick, tormented individual that beats their child for self pleasure then you can get ****ed by a herd of raging hard horses. Evil *****.

Tough life, Snow. I got thrashed a lot. Went to boarding school where we were caned every day. Later went to a tough school where students and teachers got into slugfests quite openly. All this while Dad was thrashing us at home. For all that I had a blissful childhood!

I don't think I'm a sociopath nor do I want folks to think I'm one nor have I ever claimed to be one but I'm glad Sophie thinks I'm one of it solves the question of why her own friends think she's an insufferable bitch. Maybe you should permanently put me on ignore with this account too before I make you melt the **** out again.

Here's a little free tip, and you will never ever need to lift a hand:
Work on your Dad-growl. It helps me that I am (IRL) a tall and severe-looking person, but a good growl will work wonders in terms of getting misbehaving children to change their ways, fast. -

Oh, yes. My father was a military man and was quite fond of physical punishments. I don't plan on having any children, so I've no preferred parenting style, but I will say that nothing in childhood was a better deterrent than the thought of catching a beating.

Not THAT young. I just don’t age but I take your point
Ever listen to Carlin’s hardcore history? In one podcast, he discusses how one hundred years back it was commonplace and encouraged to beat your kids. Good parenting back then, as life was tougher.
Stop.
