Don't Be Suspicious

I think it’s okay to a degree, but only if it’s not too much or too hard. The purpose of it should be to punish you child, not to hurt your child.

I fully disagree. I wouldn't do anything like that to my child, I don't want to cause them physical harm no matter what. I'm not gonna be like my parents and I'm not going to make the same mistakes they did with me.

I was punished like that pretty often, and I don't think I turned out my best because of it. I disagree with it also, only because of the negative effects it can have on the child and parents' relationship.

Sorry to butt in, but I was curious and want to add something to this if no one minds.
Spanking in children has a psychological impact on children since it is a violent punishment to stop violent or disruptive outbursts, and this enforces the cognition to change, causing the child to feel as if it is alright for them to act out more violently because mommy and daddy did it to them.
It all comes down to punishments and reinforcements in psychology.
Reinforcement is adding something desirable or taking away something undesirable in a positive way, punishment is taking or adding something in a negative way.
If you merge those two, you get a rather f*ed up situation.
You're speeding, but instead of the officer pulling you over, he rams his car into you, causing you to get injured. Suppose this was normal almost is tho. The cop is an enforcer of the law, and you look up to him. But since he led the example, does that mean you can ram your car into another going 45 in a 40 mph zone? No.
It's the same with a child, but a child doesn't have a completely developed cognition enough to understand this. Monkey see; monkey do, after all.
Now, if you chose to spank your child in a mature manner, explaining the situation they created, then that's fine, just be aware of the threat this can pose. It's my belief that it poses far too much harm than good.
And that was your TED talk by the person who is the incarnation r/iamverysmart.

I think it depends on how the parents do it. My parents spanked me all the time when I was little, but that was because I just didn’t know when to quit. I was passive aggressive and rude and stuff as a little kid. Now though, I don’t talk much at all, and I like to think that I’m less aggressive than I used to be. I also still have a pretty good relationship with my mom (not my dad though bc of other stuff). So I don’t think it hurt me more than it helped me. But that’s just my personal experience, I realize that not everyone is the same.

That's an example of a good reason to spank, but it does have impacts when done wrong.

I grew up with spanking as well, but it did not have a poor impact on my life. Not one that I am aware of anyway. It's pretty normal to get smacked in a hispanic family, you know that your family member isn't trying to hurt you, you were just acting like an ass.

I think that jumping straight to physical punishment is wrong. There should be respect even between a young child and their parent. Children should be taught reasonably how to properly behave and the difference between right and wrong, before being subjected to punishment. They should have the chance to learn/ test boundaries/ express themselves just like anyone else.

My goodness Mushu is the best. How could they?

Maybe they'll have Mushu but they just haven't shown him yet-

but idk

I know I should. I just haven't, even though I want to. Same with Spiderverse, I know it's good, I want to see it, I just… Haven't.

RIP MUSHU 2019
