Why do white people have such trouble with controlling their kids?

I swear, immigrant parents don’t have an issue with that. My Mexican mom just had to slap me and would have my attention lmao. My Asian friend can tell you the same thing, and my African friend still gets hit with a sandal by his mom, even at the age of 23 😂

Well that’s a bit racist but here especially in the first world predominantly white countries there seems to be a stigma against hitting children. It wasn’t like that when I was a child in the 80s and 90s it’s a relatively new thing. It’s also illegal for schools and nurseries to raise a hand to a child, has been since before I was born. I don’t think it’s illegal for parents to though. Over here it’s very much thought that there are other ways of discipling children other than hitting.
