I'm not one for doing it... i see ppl hitting their kids and i want to spit.  however, there is a time and place for it.  When my son was 12-15 months, he loved to stick his fingers in electrical sockets.  I would quickly slap his hand down.  no pain, just a small swat.  he didn't understand the words I said back then - no concept of how electricity would hurt him.  Too young for time out.  no other way to prevent it.

I only had to do it 3-4 timess and to this day he avoids sockets.  more of a sting with the slap, you know?  Today at almost 3 years old, I find time out is fine for most things.

I got 5 real spankings with a belt on my ass in my life.
i remember all 5.
I went into the street, punched a much smaller child, threw a baseball at a bus, and two other things that were just above and beyond "spend 10 minutes in time-out".

Nothing wrong with that.  A 4-year old cannot understand what a bumper does to a kid at 45 mph.  But they can understand what a belt on the ass feels like.  No street.

I think you don't need to hit them. If 10 minute time out is not enough, then 20 minutes, if that is not enough then more. I have worked with disabled kids and we never hit them and all went just fine.

More often than not, you can tie bullies, emotional and unstable children....children who act out and children who have anger and violence issues, to some sort of emotional or physical abuse by a parent.  Beating this shit out of your kid teaches them that fear and aggression are the way to solve problems.  Treatment like that also destroys a child's confidence.

I'm not saying to act like a pussy with your kids, but physical harm and causing extreme fear to a young child is the wrong way to do things.  Remember, to them you look like Ronnie Coleman.  Also, chances are you are a fucked up person if you beat your child.

If you wack your kid across the face with force and try to scare them you are borderline abusive, imo.  Its not needed. I don't have an issue with "spanking" a kid....but you get these people who basically whip their kids ass and think it builds character.

Spanking hell yes..sometimes my little one is lucky she never got what I got and for some things that time out shit is for the birds. Would I spank on the butt in public no, never really had to but she is going on 4 so we shall see. All I have to say is keep it up and no more ballet or karate, that usually sets her straight

Amen.  Of course, every kid is different. When I was a kid, my daddy would ground me from watching wrestling for two weeks if I misbehaved too egregiously.  If that didn't correct the problem, the beating followed.  As my daddy always said, "A hard head makes for a soft ass."

my son gets a spank across the thigh at most, i would NEVER hit him across the face, and your right i never understood why people think that beating a child will build character... unless by character they want their kids to grow being violent offenders like themselves

I saw some older trashy guy hit his kid at a bar/restaurant once. He slapped him in the back of the head really hard, not sure why. I asked him how he would like it if someone hit him in the back of the head. He told me to mind my own business. I told him since it was 11 o'clock and this 10ish year old was STILL at the bar breathing in my smoke it kind of was my business and asked him if he needed a loan to get a babysitter in a smart ass way. He moved away from me, but him and his wife/GF stayed there till 1 a.m. while the kid played video games in the corner. Trashy people. I should have called the police tbh. When someone does that shit in public, God knows what they do in the privacy of their own homes.

I think many parents don't know the difference between abuse and discipline, and this is mainly where most problems come from. Anybody and everybody are becoming parents this day and age and not every person is qualified. Sure they are two different things, but a lot of parents can't state the difference. I think a lot of parents "discipline" their children (spank them, etc) thinking it's discipline while the kid on the other hand think it's abuse. I got hundreds of spankings growing up, and I remember telling myself at the time to remember how i felt about it so I wouldn't make the same mistakes when/if I became a parent. Many times when I got spanked, I didn't know why. I wasn't aware any act I did was wrong, and any questioning was deemed as "talking back" and thus more spanking was applied. Did instances like these teach me to become a better person? Apparently not. I think society has this idea that violence is the easiest way out of a situation so this is the method that we apply. For example if someone is doing harm to someone else or just acting like a jerk, many times people say "boy if they did that to me i'd go against their head" etc etc.

I agree!  When they really deserve it beat their ass!  My brother and I had our butts cut when we were naughty and we turned out just fine.

But spank because they deserve it and you love them... never out of anger or frustration. 8)

in all fairness, society hasn't really seen the benefits/detriments of the whole "dr. phil" style because it hasnt been completed and those that were around when it started are still in the character growing stage.

And by the way, to throw even more fuel in the fire here, children are more influenced by their peers instead of their parents. That's basic physcology (since I learned it in PSY 200).

true words spoken.

time out hahahaha thats what happens when you read too many books and focus on not hurting there feelings. if the child acts up a good spanking does wonders. fear always wins over "talking"

funniest thing i seen was when my samoan friend got in trouble at school he got home and his dad sat him in a chair and called his uncles then they started beating the shit out of him. none of this open handed shit closed fists that would knock out any normal person. mind you the son was like 6'4 at the age of 15 now he is 21 and hasnt been in trouble since

I hear ya man.  It sickens me to hear that parents are afraid to hit their kids for discipline.  I heard stories from my dad and his father and I feel fucking lucky.  I will always respect my parents being raised the way I was.  Most of the people I know were raised by pussy parents and they have no fucking respect.  Both granddads believed in beating and at the very least all the kids showed respect at all times.  My dad did want or need to be my friend, he was my dad.  If I needed friends I went down the street.  Parents today are afraid to be disliked by their kids.  Too fucking bad.  Being a good parent should always come before being liked.  Enjoy the video.

I would also like to add that my younger brother almost never got hit like I did growing up.  I took the brunt of the disciplining. Turns out he was a rebellious fuck who dropped out of high school, was irresponsible, disrepected authority, did rec drugs, and can't hold a steady job.  Coincidence?  I'm still gonna whoop my kids!

I fucked up ONCE with my grandpa and he hit me.  I was 1.) in shock that grandpas could do that 2.) never stepped out of turn again.

Hell yeah you should "spank" your child when necessary...My Mom used to tear me up with her "Isotoners" and my dad with a belt....and when I look back, I deserved every one of those beatings....and I turned out OK  ;D

I can remember being in grade school and some of the dad's would come and spank the shit out of their kids in front of the class to teach them "humility" and to teach them a lesson.....

I got my ass whipped with the metal part of the belt and i would laugh after the beating was over and go to my room where i had a Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Gameboy, New T.V., Baketball thing where i shot my clothes in and that never worked but their are two things that straightened my ass out.

1. When a kid is mad at his/her parent/s they will be so mad at them and spanking, smacking really does nothing but my mother would make me stare at her for 1 hour and sometimes more and i could not speak. I talk to mom everyday and i thank her for doing that because that really worked.
2. I was a 12 year old punk who liked to cause trouble and treat people like shit and i was not a bad kid but i was in with the wrong crowd. I was caught damagening someones property along with my punk buddies and lucky me, got to go to court and well, i went to a the state prision for Scared Straight and those dudes scared the shit out of me. Seeing a big black guy that is almost 300 lbs scream at you when you are 12 and skinny as a twig will break you down as it did me and the things that they all told us scared me straight. I could not look away but some kids did and then more guys came in and started screaming about how they cannot even see their children or see their grandchildren. I remember a big white guy who said that if i was in there, "I would fuck you, make you my bitch and then sell you to some other MOTHER FUCKER!! I cried and that set me straight. I remember everything about that day and just the feeling when i got back on that bus and some kids were laughing but i got my shit together and started helping others and getting more involved into sports then i already was and being a leader. The best thing that i ever learned being in Kentucky.

My mom hit me when I acted way out of order when I was younger and I don't blame her one bit. There's a difference between abuse and discipline, and I'm glad I was disciplined at a young age as I definitely think it made me a better and stronger adult.

Then again, I grew up in a different culture. Disciplinary spankings for failing to do well in school or getting into trouble were and still are common. Abuse is not.

I don't mean to sound ethnocentric, but I believe that the states and Europe do not understand the difference between discipline and abuse. Kids in America aren't disciplined by parents, but when parents do decide to do something they resort to abuse.

If i had kids I would make the mom take care of discipline, and I would just back her up.  This would be most effective strategy if the child needs physical punishment.  I would never hit my mom back but when it came down to it with my dad we had some brawls and we destroyed a lot of furniture, walls, windows, etc...but nothing was ever resolved.

Dr. Spock (not Kirk's sidekick) , that idiot in the 70's who started advocating the current attitude towards discipline and combine that with the hippie generation and boom (no pun intended baby boomers) .  The older generation had it right, not on everything, but certainly on discipline.

I got my ass beat as a kid if I deserved it, and a few times when I didn't but I survived. My son is only 18 months so other than a smack on the hand when hes bad, all I have to do is roll up my sleeve and flex at him.

My father hit me once when I didn't deserved it.
My parents had just divorced he he was pissed off and depressed.

One day I arrived at home after school, I was about 16 years old, and he asked me to help my brother for something (I don't remember what). I said that I didn't have time for this right now.

He entered into my room and start punching me in the face for about like..... a good 30 seconds. I wasn't replying at first because you are not supposed to hit your father. but he was stopping so i got angry and I beat the crap out of him, destroyed his glasses... ect..

not a pretty sight ! My brother called the police and I went to live with my mom afterward.

but we are all good now, he apologized but of course our relationship isn't what it was

Spank a kid, yes. Punch them square on the jaw, heck no.

As far as i'm concerned spank that ass, or slap that hand if they step out of line. Anything other than that crosses the line to physical abuse.

I don't have kids yet, but if/when i do it's their mother that'll be doing the discipline. I'd be too afraid of hurting them.

As a kid, unless i stepped seriously out of line it was my mother who took care of it. The one time my dad did was enough to let me know i shouldn't do something like that again. I was 7 or 8 and i called my mother a "fucking bastard"! Then i ran and locked myself in the upstairs bathroom. My dad had that lock open with a knife in 2 seconds. Lesson learned.

If by "hit" you mean "spank" then the answer is yes.  We used the John Rosemond method:  only on the butt, only with your hand, no more than three swats.  We used it as the supreme sanction, which made enforcing all the lesser forms of punishment much easier.

 "He who spareth the rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him correcteth him betimes" (Proverbs 13:24)  "Withhold not correction from a child: for if thou strike him with the rod, he shall not die. Thou shalt beat him with the rod, and deliver his soul from hell." (Proverbs 23:13-14)

People the Lord has spoken! Beat your children!

sometimes just a clip across the ears is the only way to get the message across...

communication is key.
