He struck his son with a belt?

Sorry, I don't find child abuse funny in the least. In fact, it's downright disgusting.

Okay? .

Finding it abuse is questionable I for one think it's disciple If you don't get you don't get it.

There is a huge difference between getting a spanking with a belt and abuse.

Man up, we do that shit all the time in Asia. Its called discipline. You can argue all you want but what that guy did pretty much straight up his nephew up.

Its pretty much a culture shock for you sir.

I think it was his nephew, does that make it funnier?

Pain is a fantastic way to stop someone from repeating a behaviour. The kid was pretending to be a gang banger, this was a way to stop them from keeping it up and maybe getting shot. A few smacks with a belt to stop them from being dead? My mom did this to me when I told her exactly where I was going because she forgot and was afraid, no long term damage. Stop babying the babies.

This! And people wonder why there's alot of douchebags in north america.

I wouldn't say beating your kids is a good thing. Then again, a good spanking really will make a kid think twice about what he's been doing. I certainly wouldn't call a belt or a slap to your kid abuse if it's for a geniune reason. If it's out of anger or practically every day, that's another story.

So are you saying that by talking to your child 'son, it wrong to do this' it's actually better respond to discipline?

How so? State your stand instead of just finding it disgust and editing people's word.

I rather would tell my child 'son, do that again and I'll whoop your ***.' There's a different between abusing and discipline. You spare the rod, you let him rot.

Lol, my parents kicked my ***. I respect them.

In the end they didn't get obedience from their children, they got submission; two entirely different things.


It's discipline through beating. There are many other, more effective ways of instilling discipline in a child.


That's just extrapolation. All of the successful people I've known around my age were not hit or struck. Their parents were, but they didn't do that to their kids. Their kids are turning out all right: most of my friends are ending up in tier 1 universities and getting awesome scholarships. Yr half right. The problem isn't picking up the belt, the problem is that kids aren't taking school seriously. There's absolutely no evidence to suggest that "spare the rod, spoil the child" has any weight to it as a theory. Even studies on spankings show little effect on a child's visible discipline and behavior. What does show an effect is how a parent expects a child to be responsible for his actions, how much they push their child to be responsible in school, how demanding they are of a child to be polite and presentable in public, etc. These show the changes in behavior, and none of this require a belt, yet it's discipline all the same.

http://umaine.edu/publications/4357e/ (just a quick summary article on some evidence and studies on spanking; don't feel like getting into heavy-duty backing up of my arguments.)



That's just laziness. You have to teach your child a lesson through violence? We're human beings, we learn and teach through conversation and thought, not beating each other and using pain like animals.

See, teaching a child through violence is the cowardly and lazy way out of parenting. You have to inflict pain to steer a child from wrong instead of doing the noble, ethical, and the more effective way of steering them toward right through reason, persuasion and commanding of respect. Why take the painful way when the other way is more effective? Simply because it's easier to strike or a child than reason with him or her in a way that will instill a lesson. But parenthood isn't easy.

I think my opinion on this stems from the idea that it's wrong to physically harm someone you love. I think it's as wrong to strike a child to teach a lesson as it is to strike your wife to teach her a lesson, or to strike an uncle, or your parents, etc. Why? Because you have a duty to yr loved ones to protect them and nourish them and love them. Yes, you have a duty to teach your child discipline, but to hit him to do it? It's plain weakness since there are as many ways to teach a child without violence as there are to teach a dog without hitting him, or teach a student algebra without hitting him, or debate an opponent in school without hitting him.

Am I saying that hitting a child doesn't teach him a lesson? No, not at all. Although it's already conclusive that spanking has never worked, that doesn't rule out other forms of corporal punishment being effective as well. I don't know, I'm not an expert. But it is very conclusive that non-corporal forms of instilling discipline, things such as holding them very responsible for their schoolwork, encouraging them to be respectful to others and making sure they are associating with other well-adjusted children, not the gangs on the block.

Now, you can choose to doubt all of that if you want. I don't feel like rooting out links to studies, but I'm entirely confident from having had to study this subject very seriously in the past that what I have said is still scientifically and practically up to date. If you do believe all of this, or looked up the research yourself and found that I am likely right (not going to 100% rule out that I can be wrong; I don't see the world in black and white), how can you doubt that hitting a child to teach a lesson is disgusting and unethical?

Showing man the very basic form of humanity, violence, can have an effect on a child's bad attitude, usually decreasing it.

Kindness > Kindness > Love > Caring > Child does something bad > violence > "oh wow, i noticed that when i did something bad my mom hit me maybe i should stop that sounds great"

Doesn't make it any less of a disgusting act in my eyes.

There is no need for it, but the talking thing out doesn't always work. It's not realistic to believe that will solve problems cause it won't. Not all the time and not with every child.

Ladies, ladies. I think we all know ethics are subjective.

This. If you're only beating your kids to teach them a lesson then I find nothing wrong with that. I don't care if it's ethical or not, it works. The children end up living in fear of they're parents and know not to do that again.

---

Either you are being sarcastic or I'm afraid that I should let you know I have zero respect for a person who thinks it's okay to hurt a child and doesn't use ethics to guide his life. Sorry if I don't respond to your posts, but I have a hard time responding to someone I don't respect. I really hope you're being sarcastic, though, comments like your mom taunting you to call the cops on her while she strikes you with the phone because she loves you (and you believe it) are too ridiculous for me to believe.

Talking to kids makes alot of them think "Pfft they don't care, shes just gonna give me a speech no big deal". Tough love man. 10 lashings isn't going to ruin your life or make you start a Post-Hardcore band.

Just because a parent does a lot for you and being struck isn't as bad as life can get for others still does not make it ethical from my point of view. I think I've made it clear in my other posts how that is: if other more effective alternatives to violence exist, and violence is painful to the one you are supposed to protect and love, then not doing pursuing those options are out of laziness, ignorance or weakness, and therefore unethical to me. That's my argument in a nutshell, there are more subtleties and nuances, of course, as there are to any belief.
