I would think you'd have to hit pretty hard with an open hand to leave a bruise. Still, bruises aren't that big a deal.

I won't go into the spanking vs. not spanking. But, I will say, I believe too many parents are trying to be friends with their kids. I think THAT is how this all started. Hell, even my ex-husband now has a rotten child because they want this damn kid to like them. Fuck that - my kids love me because I tell them to.

I wonder....were children, especially in public places, more well behaved when spanking dat ass was a common practice, or have kids always ran around restaurants acting like cunty little assholes?

Back in our parents day, and shoot, even in my day as a small child, it was politically correct and expected to take your screaming kid outside or to the bathroom to deal with them. Reminds me of the Jeff Foxworthy bit about just the threat of going "outside" being enough to straighten your ass out. But I think too, back in the day people had a sense of decorum and responsibility with the grace and politeness to be concerned about others wellfare, i.e. not subjecting others to their child's misbehavior.
Now people dont care about anyone but themselves and dont give a shit if their monsters are offending others. And its not just kids, its everything in life, driving, talking on cell phones at such a volume that the people across the street can hear you, using the handicap spot when you arent handicapped/or parking in front of the front doors in the non parking zone, etc. They dont have the couth to be embarassed by their poor behavior either or to know when they should be. |

This whole shitpile has gone downhill since back in those days... You know, the days of personal accountability... when it was embarrassing to be a douchebag idiot... embarrassing to be pregnant at 14 years old... embarrassing... The problem is, somewhere along the way we took the whole 'all men are created equal' thing and went nutso apeshit with it. Everyone wins, because we're all equal... can't discipline my kid because they are my equal... because I need my kid to be my friend... |

Back then I got my hide tanned by hands, belts, shoes, hair brushes, and wooden spoons. More than a few, of the latter two broke on my bony ass, so you can be damned sure my parents weren't exactly worried about leaving bruises. Quote:

We used to have a paddle hanging outside the door to the principal's office at my school. It got used pretty frequently.

I don't believe in it, unless it's between consenting adults.
