I have just whacked the fok out of my son, well, not that bad as he aint down and bleeding, second time in 15 years, do kids need a good beating every now and again?

Yes, they do. But chances are good he'll become a beater himself. One must have a heart to heart after a beating to re-assure him it was wrong to do it, IMO.
was there any reason DD did he do wrong?
Never did me any harm, my Thai mum had a stick specifically for the purpose, my dad just used his hands.
I got some good beatings, nearly always deserved them and as Pat says doesn't seem to have done me any harm.
What did he do? How old is he?Originally Posted by dirtydog
parental corporal punishment is both valid and lifesaving

Nothing wrong with a smack, and I don't think kids are 'brutalised' by it or turn into monsters; more likely to develop into spoiled brats if they're not nudged into line occasionally.
But much like a dog, if the kid doesn't understand what set you off it's wasted, so once the blood is hosed off the good dad should make a show.
Cant say as I beat my kids. Plenty of wrestling style headlocks and slams, the eldest is only 6 though and loves it. My dad only hit me once, crashed my 18th birthday present into a bus stop, telegraph pole and junction box, might have deserved that one.
I have slapped the hooligan a few times but he just looks at me and laughs with a look of "is that the bet you've got" and i have to walk away so he can't see me laughing too!
Nothing wrong with it.
But do resist the urge to give them a kicking when you've knocked them down. It's not a bar fight.
With today's laws in the US, my dad would problem due some serious time for the beatings he gave me! Helped to make me the man I am today!

My old man used to whack us with bamboo. When I was about 10 he made me help him plant some bamboo and told me it was to hit me when I fucked up. Didn't do much damage to me, we laugh about it these days. I never hit Wayne Jnr as his mother and aunt are much better than me at the corporal punishment stuff.

I did go over the top, he is as big as me and i whacked the fok out of him which was totally unfair on him, fok I feel real guilty now a few weeks ago he was skiving from college and hitting the internet cafes for a couple of days, then today he said he couldn't rewire a plug, it annoyed me too much, he is doing electronics at college.
I feel like a real piece of shite, you don't punch kids.....
can the family room be seen by guests or is it like members?
Cross that bridge when I come to it, not an issue yet. Would like to think not but bit hard to say conclusively right now.
But what I don't get is how adults who were brought up with corporal punishment at home and at school suddenly decided that it was detrimental to them. Did they just wake up one morning and decide it had screwed them up or something?
especially for failure to re wire a plug, hope he can change a lightbulb or he could be well and truly fukkled.Originally Posted by dirtydog
I deal with stoopid Thais everyday, I don't expect my son to be one.
I have cuts on all my knuckles anyway so i wouldn't know if I whacked him hard enough to learn a lesson
You used the old telephone book trick did you DD!Originally Posted by dirtydog
A really good wack every now and then does any kid the world of good IMO!
Then again all I have to do with my youngest girl is raise my voice and she is heart broken.
Teachers have been denied this form of discipline and look what has happened.
