Cool story, bro.

The switch thing is too far Imo.
But a belt to the ass isn't anything new.


I wouldn't do it to my kids, but it's really not anyone's business what any of you do as a parent.

I mean, it absolutely is. A lot of folks don’t take kindly to abuse, sexual or otherwise.

I got the red ass from a few switches, at least one belt, and then a principal in third grade who used a wooden paddle with drag reducing holes drilled into it on my bare ass

It had a name and everything, like Negans bat or some shit lol... the Whistler or something along those lines

Dont remember what I did to make it happen, but distinctly remember those lessons with no particular trauma and most likely had it coming

But yeah, Peterson went overboard leaving scabby scars like that on a 4 year old... nothing a 4 year old is capable of justifies that, its just clearly over the line

Spanked each of mine with a bare hand ptobably 3-4 times, but only a couple times on a bare butt... there isnt any particular guilt about it, but do remember always wishing I'd figured out a better way when it was over

"This hurts me more than it hurts you..."

I don't really like when things like this become some referendum on spanking.

Anything can be taken too far. You can never lay a hand on your kids and discipline them only verbally and do MORE damage if you're reckless or irresponsible.

On top of that, i'd always like to ask these same people if they felt that getting whipped by a switch was the only way they could've learned.

They're essentially saying, "Yup, you had to beat my ass black and blue with a switch for me to figure it out..."

I have a very hard time believing that you genuinely felt that way as a child.

You're now looking back at your childhood as an adult going, "Hey, that happened to me and Im an Ok person, so i guess it was no big deal and maybe even great that it happened!".

You're starting to sound awful preachy here

Theres no need to drag everyone with varying experiences from various eras, into some debate about who holds the high ground on this issue

Is it right or wrong, should it be tolerated in modern society? all I can say is that dishing it out didnt suit me... but its also probably not my place to tell someone else how to parent, provided they're not leaving scabby welts on a 4 year old

I think spanking is lazy parenting. You're not really addressing the core of the misbehavior and instead just using violence to get compliance.

That said, there's about a million things worse than spanking a kid. Abusing a kid with a switch until he's covered in bruises and blood from his knees to his belly button INCLUDING on his nutsack would be one of those million things. it's a damn muddy issue. There's whipping a kid who needs whipping and there's cruel abuse of power over a child. Where that line should be drawn is NOT something universally agreed upon.

[kysirsoze]

Is it possible to spank using a belt or some other weapon without going too far? I guess so. But why on Earth would you? The hand is more than adequate if you choose to spank your kid. How much pain do you really need to inflict? Pretty ****ed up.

And this asshole has shown that he has rage issues and lacks restraint. If there is a parent out there that can responsibly and safely wield a belt on their child, he ain't it. I hope the authorities investigate him again.

I would like a clarification on "hitting" his son with a belt.
If he is "hitting" his son on the butt with a belt that is a spanking not hitting.

Daddy took the weedeater to my back when I misbehaved and I turned out to be a totally normal CP poster! Always made me put on fresh line before he did it. The memory of sobbing as I was rigging that Stihl up still makes me smile to this day. Because it taught me a lesson!

Damn. A stihl, too. You know there was no chance you were gonna get lucky and have that mother****er not start or something. They're too damn reliable.

If your dad would have just owned a craftsman, you'd be a much shittier person due to lack of weed eater lashings.
