same here. i used to get suspended from school every day i was at school. stuff like that.

Damn, lol my mom and dad use to throw slippers at me when I rode my bike after dark and didn't want to go in.

Haha, I use to pedal all fast when they tryed. Good times
once I was inside, it wasn't so good lol

[MisawaJason]

85% Yes.............awesome. Fucking hippie ass parents that think just talking to your kids works. Kids respect the spanking. I know it kept me in line when I was a little kid.

[HalveBlue]

I was never spanked as a kid and I turned out fine.

I know kids that were spanked and ended up as fucktards.

[!Zar!]

There are always exceptions to the rule.

[racepar1]

The bottom line is that kids need a whuppin every now and then. Gotta keep those little bastards in check!

[atutt]

..Smack 'em.

I got the traditional leather belt, fly swatter, and wooden spoon. On special occasions when I was really bad. I had a metal spatula, large authentic Australian boomerang, and one of those mini plastic hockey sticks.

Kids these days get away with way to much. If you fart with a 10ft perimeter of a child they'll call Children Aid on you.
Nowadays. Far to often am I tempted to slap someone else kid because they're being rude, disrespectful, obnoxious snot nose brats, or down right annoying. And never receive any physical punishment. Or ANY kind of discipline.

I wonder if it has anything to do with 18 year olds having kids??

[mrflip69]

off ... LOL





The people who voted no... are you white?

I don't think it's so much as the beatdown, but kids--shit people in general, need a sense of boundaries, consequences and punishment. If you can teach that at an EARLY age without beating your kids, more power to you--but if it's already too late and all you end up is with a bruised child who still acts like a fuck up, what then?

Today is kind of bullshit I think. I see these kids being total assholes and the parents couldn't be bothered to do anything about it.

Simple solution: Kid acts up. Smack him. Kid learns. The End.


I think there is far too much "PC" crap these days. lawsuits. Kids who "run" their parents. ADD, ADHD, etc. wtf is that?
A smack will straighten up that smart ass.

I'm glad I just got the belt or the slipper or the hand but never that stupid stuff like "time out" or the soap bar in the mouth treatment.

[Bluejayde]

Spoiled/disrespectful/whatever kids is not a matter of spanked or not spanked. It's a whole parenting style. Often the proper style comes with spanking (Because those parents CARE enough to train their kids), but it doesn't have to.
There are different strategies out there (and in this thread) that work at different times, in different situations, with different kids. I think you'll find most caring parents use a mix of positive and negative reinforcement as well as punishment (If you just tuned out because I used "psychology talk" fuck you).

Kids do as they observe. Set a good example, be firm, offer choices, spank when absolutely necessary.

To any who have said that we're having kids younger than we have in previous years... Have you ever read a book? Do your research on arranged feudal marriages, etc., then get back to us.

[D.Adams]

I think allot of the kids from the IE and other parts of So cal should of been smacked around when they were growing up. When I did something wrong I got the shit beat out of my or I had to do a shit load of push ups... these 16-20 year old kids these days have no respect for anything.

[chucky norris]

i would get hit by my dad with leather sandals, power cords, belts, and a plastic pipe all kinds of stupid shit for doing stupid things. it wasn't just my dad that would hit me also my grandmother and grandfather in front of my friends lol

[prodigyJJ]

I used to get my ass beat by my mom and grandmom/grandfather constantly when I was a child until I was about 9 when I watched my mom shoot my older brother's dad in the vitals, leave him lying on the ground bleeding in the front yard, and walk into the house to call the cops on herself. She then sat down at the kitchen table, and drank a cup of coffee while she waited. F'n EPIC. Needless to say I never had my ass whipped again.

The point of that childhood memory is that fear is a beautiful thing to teach children with.

[meteorite_flo]

I know this girl that has a kid, the kid is way out of control. All she does is yell at him if he does something bad, and in my mind I want to tell her ass to whoop his ass. This kid is only 2 years old, biting/beating/jumping on her.

It's such a headache to see that, because if that was my son I would've whooped his ass until he gets it right. I remember when I fucked up when I was younger my mom brought out the feather dusters. LOL

Btw, the kid doesn't know his dad, the mom is single and living with her foster mom.
Shit, no wonder.

[PHAS3D]

Im 18 and I can only remember getting hit by my dad once. I'm not spoiled.... Well not too bad anyways. I didn't really do dumb shit or piss off my parents, so I don't think all kids should get their asses beat for doing small shit. But then there are the dumb ass kids who scream and shit and public and yes I forshure think they should get beat or punished severly. I think it really just depends. haha this was pointless....

[Unknown007]

When I was little my parents would hit me and I would laugh my ass off.LOL but my lil brother isn't hit and holy mother of god he is so dumb.I think kids need a beaten to understand sometimes cause if they grow up never feeling pain and get hit by someone else, well you have a little girl if it's a boy.Also if you don't hit them or spank then it'll lead to them doing it again and again.Kinda like a puppy when they see newspaper.

The problem is that if you discipline your kid from the get-go, they wont think about having public tantrums. I watched my wife's lil cousin whos like 4, kid is the most behaved fucking kid I've ever seen. His dad talks to him like he's a damn adult and he behaves like one.

True. But that can also backfire. If my parents did that now i would probably do the exact opposite of everything they tell me. haha but probably not. idk its all just the situation i guess.

[Gizmo_S13]

I rarely got my ass kicked by my parents. My brother did mind you but I learned from his mistakes. He got his ass handed to him by my mom and dad. I was like "Oh shit! I'm never gonna do that!" I came out alright..I guess.
When ever we got into bullshit they'd take the video game consoles, CD/MP3 players, Computers, anything worth having fun or enjoyed doing but what they didn't know I knew where they stashed all the goodies HAAHAAHAHAHAHAH but I say beat your kids ass when they get out of line!

[miravete]

i got my ass whopped by my dad, and i turned out pretty good if i say so myself.

and i agree with a couple of guys from here, todays youth doesnt have respect for its peers. they seriously need some as whooping; with the "chancla" lol

[bb4_96]

In my area right now we are experiencing the generation of "no woopins" come to fruition. There is no sense of consequences for actions here. I know a girl who got a wreckless driving charge a while back. Then a few weeks later she got pulled for speeding.... under the influence, with open bottles in her car, scripts that weren't hers, pot possession, and parafanilia. Not a week later she rearended a van full of girls from the half-way house. So far she's gotten a slap on the wrist. She's really the victim here so they sentenced her to 30 days of AA lol.

No consequences = no morals = where i live

Pulling out of my neighbor hood the other day I saw a car way off in the distance. So I pulled out and almost got hit. The car way down the road was a girl doing... eh around 90(in a 35) in a liberty. She looked maybe 16. When I caught up to her she yelled at me for pulling out in front of her.. I was speechless lol.

My brothers ex graduated high school on her 5th car.
Car 1: Saturn 1 - dropped motor on ground(can't reverse full speed then throw your car into drive w/o stopping first forever.
Car 2: Saturn 2 - Same trouble.
Car 2b: Saturn 2- Side swiped a mini-van.
Car 3: 90's Shadow - after several minor fender benders finally spun out on dry pavement rounding a corner, bounced off a truck then a light pole.
Car 4: Brand new saturn ion- rear ended a station wagon.
Car 5: replacement band new ion- rolled due to excessive speed cornereing.
She has currently paid for zero cars or repairs and is still out there on the road.

There is a recent rash in pregnancies of unmarried 15-18y/o girls not in relationships who are still living at home. Most girls I meet have been pregnant at least once. But when you can pop a pill, adopt out, or let your parents raise it, why not. I think thats the current consensus.

The people of this city are pimarily failing industrial workers and commuting chicago big business. Its wierd to see more high school kids in brand new cars than adults. Theres two lanes here, one for the struggling adults trying to poke down the road and save gas in some beater, and one lane for a young kid bouncing a cobalt off the rev limiter and that girl in the liberty.

No consequences + Everything handed to you = where I live

Even my younger brothers have bought into this mindset. My youngest brother barely graduated high school. He has no job. He's not gonna go to school. He just sits in the basement and plays MW2 and parties with his friends. And he's probably the most likely to succeed out of his whole group of friends.

He said it to me like this. Why should I work? "I've never worked and I have everything I want. Don't be bitter because I figured the world out first" My brother has a homeless friend who has the same midset... excpet his parents lost there house and disowned him before they moved away, now he just bounces around between firends.

I'm not interested in a poll of whether the people in my city whooped there kids or not. The resulting youth speak volumes.

I can't relate to people much younger than me. It's like they are stuck in an episode of The Hills. i feel like most of them were raise, and grew up, very different from me.

I'm very thankful my parents cared enough to discipline me physically and otherwise.

"be your kid's friend" flip that switch.....

[90white240]

For me it was yes and no. My mom beat my butt, but my dad would talk to me. Sometimes I would rather of just got a spanky, long lectures suck.

[RPS13fan]

I'm asian, so yes beat your kids!

[DDB240sx]

It's the responsibility of the parent to ensure that the child understands that there are consequences to their actions in the real world. The parents won't always be around to protect them, pay for them, and make excuses for them.

on the same boat.....um ... you know what i mean.

my mom would woop my ass all the time for doing stupid shit when i was growing up. both me and my brother.
i think she was trying to be "Americanized" so she would use a leather belt on us. if we fucked up more than usual she would threaten us with the not so soft side of the belt (the buckle) and if we really, really fucked up, and i think this is why she enrolled us in KENDO,
she would get really japanese on us and chase us with a SHINAI
thats when you start running like a mofo.

.....and we all turned out great so beat your kids mentally and physically.
just dont hurt them.

you are their parent first and foremost be their friend when they need it.
discipline is a beautiful thing.
talking and time outs just dont do the job for most kids. usually white parents do that sort of thing. not being racist or anything but statistically this is true. you can wikipedia this.
asian, mexican, black, indian, europeans, south americans too!

kids cannot be let off the hook too easily when they've done something wrong or been disrespectful. whether they are aware of it or not your job as a parent is to let them see the light and woop them! not beat the crap out of them they are kids. you can wait till they're 18 for that. jk

its difficult to know what is the best way to raise your kids. there is no hand book...... at least not for the non-white parents jk
but just go about it logically.

damn, who would have thought there would be a topic like this on Zilvia
