when the gov/bleeding heart groups contribute POSITIVELY to the upbringing of my children, then they can have a say in the way I raise them........till then they can go phuk themselves.
I was raised by my grandparents....chastised when I screwed up,....beatings, had a broom handle broken over my back( was about 7yrs old) a jugcord(kettle cord?) wrapped around my legs many many times....... leaving welts......BUT!!!!!!!! I learnt respect! respect for other peoples property....respect for my elders.......respect for females........ today, teaching respect to a youth is child abuse..........I've never been arrested, never been picked up by the law for any reason.......I was sexualy abused from age 3 till 11......I still have respect. I still open a door for a females....I give up my seat for an elderly person or a female........

A person who clearly disagrees with someone hitting their child, (spanking is hitting), would most definitely think of the action as 'wrong'.
For them, to say it is wrong is being honest and sincere, not disrespectful or rude of the other, and visa versa, although certain people definitely have their own way of trying to go back and forth, good thing we can't be hit on this forum, I think a couple of us would have felt it.

I agree with you. I also find it interesting that the same thing doesn't seem to apply to those who are against abortion.

The opinions on this thread of both sides, are how certain people go about
raising their children without 'hitting', and others 'with hitting', each side
has the right to explain how they go about it, or not.
The non-hitters are not do gooders, or arrogant, or high and mighty, just
people who think 'hitting' is wrong.

They are also wrong.

When I was a young mother, I gave out a spanking, 'rarely', but I did do it, and
as I grew up and older, then had my fourth child, I never ever hit her, but I
had developed a much more mature and intelligent way of handling children
by then, and my fourth child was the one with the mouth that roared.

Aahhhh! you were doing so well and then you had to go and imply that spanking is done by immature and less intelligent people. So much for not being disrespectful.

We disciplined our son a total of 3 or 4 times in his childhood.

And raised 'a magnificent human being'.

Oh the joys of being perfect, wealthy, always correct, and holier than thou.

We can all pretend to be God on the internet.

To be ignored by "Mr. Knowitall"...?......perish the thought.....:roll:

Now you're just repeating what I've said. 'saying' it's wrong is different than what I was discussing. It's the smug, looking down the nose, superior, RUDE, DISRESPECTFUL, attitudes that I was discussing, not the mere disagreement on the issue. I've seen it plenty in playgroups, etc. You can't be a social parent and not bump into others who snidely look down their noses at other parents.

If you want to keep trying to make it about you, you're out of luck.

The act of hitting another individual is wrong, so, if one says it is wrong, it is
not attacking anyone else, it is expressing your opinion, unless the other
person thinks it is 'right', then he/she may feel they are being attacked,
too bad.

If one said it is wrong to be a catholic, because I am an atheist, I would
agree with you.
The subject is only about 'hitting' another, or 'spanking', just another word
for hitting, sounds cuter.

Oh bull. If I say I think it's wrong to hit a kid, that's my stance, free of rudeness and arrogance. If I say "Oh my god, I can' believe you spank your kid. My kids are so lucky I'm better than that." then it's arrogant and rude. End of story.

But again, I suspect you're trying to pretend I was talking about you when I wasn't, and feigning insult over something that initially never even applied to you.

 

[#juan]

That's kinda like closing the barn door after the horse gets out. By the age of 5 my kids never acted out in public because they knew it would only happened once.

I had the feeling that she was a single mom. Quite often in that situation some parents let the kids get away with that sort of thing because of guilt or whatever...and it makes it all that much harder to clamp down again.

Hang on, there is plenty of hitting in the NHL. What's with the duality on the subject?

hitting someone who wants to be hit isn't comparable to the discussion of whether or not it's okay to spank a child who clearly doesn't want a spanking Unf... :lol:.

 

[karrie]

Oh... and... since I'm being 'definitioned' to death in another thread, I'll point out that 'hit' is a broad term referring to any number of types of impacts, while 'spank' very specifically refers to one kind of impact. I will never say I agree with 'hitting' a child because it leaves room for a variety of interpretations.

 

[Unforgiven]

That's true but saying that hitting is wrong no matter what by someone who is an NHL insider seems bloody contradictory to me.

Obviously, unless the child is a moron, the child KNEW that if they do a certain thing they risk getting spanked...so obviously, if they did it, they wanted to get spanked.;-)

I was gonna crack a joke about asking for it versus asking for it... but... it seemed people might be getting a bit too touchy for it. Congrats on having more balls than me gerry. :lol:
