So…you can’t present one single example of what requires hitting a child?5 million years of evolution, to start with.
But in our age, the reason are the safety of the child and instilling respect for authority.
A 3 year old isn't an adult who can reason fully. (Though most are more mature than the average leftist.) Lessons taught at an early age are often most effective with a swat on the behind.
Numerous studies - too many to count - show that early development is complete at around age 6. After that, spanking is no longer effective in training children to be civilized adults. But during the formative period, it is a critical tool in forming disciplined and socially adjusted children.
Some sickos get their rocks off beating their kids. Those children are victims of abuse and usually react in kind when they have kids. Circle of aggressive insanity, IMO.I just don't get it. How is it that some adults CAN NOT parent without physical action? AND then have the need to justify their actions?
It's just a few individuals are were SO insistent on supporting spanking. Among them there was one who went off on a tirade about kids raised by leftists suggesting those kids turn out wrong for not being spanked.So…you can’t present one single example of what requires hitting a child?
I notice that those who engage in Antisemitism also tend to defame those who are smarter and better adjusted than they.
I am a life long Republican. Your posts are MAGA crazy land rinse and repeat.Expecting a leftist on DP to discuss in an adult fashion is uneducated? Because leftists tend to be ill-behaved children their entire lives?
LOL, no.
The left does what that left does. Appeal to emotion and ad hom.
Claiming a parent slapping the hand of a two-year old reaching for a hot stove is not only dishonest, but flat out stupid.
A good and logical way of describing this is here;
{Without discipline, children don’t know where the boundaries are. They aren’t learning how to regulate their own behavior. So, they act out—whether it’s in a shopping center or in the classroom—and no one steps in to set things straight.
The issue isn’t just about momentary bad behavior; it’s about the long-term effects. Children who never experience discipline fail to develop self-discipline. And without self-discipline, life becomes a series of poor choices and unchecked impulses.}

What does spanking a child because they had their hands on another child teach?So you ignore the post and chatter meaningless bullshit.
2 year old grandson A was choking 3 year old grandaughter B - that required and got a spanking from father C.
Agree, but I don’t see how you teach a child to keep their hands to themselves by laying hands on them.That is behavior that must be nipped in the bud.
All the parent’s responsibility to prevent.As mentioned dozens of time which you ignored, running in the street, touching a hot stove, failing to come when called.
Spanking doesn’t teach a child anything other than their parent will hit themNotice all of these involve safety. Spanking doesn't endanger a child. Not spanking does endanger both the child and those around the child.
He will just keep repeating what he has already said.What does spanking a child because they had their hands on another child teach?

Don’t worry - I’ve never taken your posts seriously. I find your posts repetitive, predictable, ignorant and typically displaying bigotry.ROFL
I apologize for taking you seriously.

Dogs "respond" to physical correction. They do not learn anything. They respond to positively reinforced commands. That is their nature.Dogs are especially tuned to respond to physical correction. Look at a pack for a minute or two and it will become obvious.
Just because we have made arbitrary decisions about how things should be done *now*, it doesn't mean we can overwrite nature.

Unfortunately we have a huge population of unwanted and unplaceable animals because some people think they can beat an animal into good behavior.
Sorry, did not intend to accuse you of beating an animal. I have no reason to think that you would...so I put it badly."Beating" wasn't what I was talking about.
But I'm not sure this is the space to discuss it, everyone is very firm in their mindset.

It is the case though, that many misguided dog owners believe they can train their (often dangerous) dogs by establishing an Alpha relationship through cruelty, creating a status symbol of sorts.
Totally agree. I hate when dogs are not respected, and that includes dressing them in cute little clothing. It's cringe.sit with a biscuit on their nose while their owner says "not yet... not yet... not yet" to show off for their friends. To me that is far more cruel.

I imagine your dogs do not have a wardrobe either.
Let me state this: Though retired I know quite a few kids and their parents. Kids nowadays are labeled as lazy, entitled, spoiled, and snarky.
Not my experience. I could post dozens of studies that show that children that are spanked are actually more likely to grow up wanting to spank their kids than parents who use other methods to discipline.
Of all the parents I know, none use spanking, and their kids are doing fine. Mind you, that is just from a casual observation, not exactly a scientific study.
Still................... spanking is still perceived as a necessary form of discipline. And arguments for and against can become quite intense. Typically "Don't tell me how to discipline my child!"
So, straight up, is spanking effective? Or, as it is happening in some countries, should be outlawed? Even if not outlawed, should it still be used as a form of discipline in this day and age?

The threat of spankings carry more weight than the actual act.There's no reason for it.
Both my daughters turned out great
if your kid doesn’t listen to you about not running into the street, why do you keep putting them in situations where they can run into the street? You’re the adult, you control the environment and surroundings. Andthey literally make leashes, etc for kids that you can put in your child. Know your child, know their developmental stage, know the limitations of that and stop expecting them to think and reason like an adult.
That’s a parenting failure, not a kid failure.
Kids understand a lot more than we give them credit for and kids can be quickly trained with consistency and repetitive behavior.
My ADHD non-verbal toddler knew he didn’t get out of the CAR without a life jacket on at the marina.
He knew he didn’t go out to crowded places without his “leash backpack”.
Because we were CONSISTENT about those things - every single time - and those were the rules. Because I knew those boundaries needed to be firm and consistent for safety.
Two seconds at the car to put on a life jacket or put on a backpack. Every.Single.time. That’s all it took..
I never once had to spank him, because I never once strayed from firm boundaries and rules. And he didn’t give me a hard time about those things because those were rules we had before we even left the house and it was his normal and the routine.
Did I turn the car around or change plans often? Yep.
But that’s part of being consistent and firm.
And it doesn’t resort to violence and hitting my kid.
