I Believe In Corporal Punishment

Why not on girls? They also need to learn respect, do chores, etc.

@ArtieKat, so you do not think,you were harmed by being allowed corporal punishment at school, and you felt that it was appropriate, I understand that! But the gentleman here is saying that all boys need to be beaten with a belt, just because they are boys and they are evil if not beaten, do you agree with that with your history?

Simona I apologize for calling you a male, I did not look,at your profile closely, and these kinds of statements are usually written by men, so I am sorry for my misunderstanding of your gender!
It does not mean that I agree with you, but I do apologize when I am wrong ?

@Darlingrose: Simona, who made the post, is a female. I know quite a number of females (of varying ages)who feel no resentment that they were physically chastised when they were growing up - I've always believed, quite naturally, in equality between the genders. Differentiation is absurd, in my opinion.

Simona: after about 12 yes

@Simona: I'm not a parent, I will admit, but to differentiate between the genders as you do is patently absurd. Times have changed since I was growing up, when corporal punishment at school and at home was generally acceptable so I can agree with neither Darlingrose nor psikeo either.

I believe the opposite

I bet your brothers hold a lot of anger and resentment towards your parents. Frankly, I'm surprised that, once they got past puberty, they didn't fight back. I sure as hell would have, if my parents had been shitty parents and resorted to physical violence

Yes

And would it be unfair of me to think that there were occasions when your actions were responsible for them being punished? Or are you made of sugar and spice and all things nice?

Very true. They should get spanked bare bottom with the belt. I think they should get spanked with a belt like this. To keep them to be a good boy.

Yes, I am female. You don't have to agree but I based my statement on experience, most boys need the belt and most girls don't or only at an early age.

WOW that is a very strong statement! Are you a father? Is that your approach to parenting?
I have raised four children, two boys and two girls, and never had to use a belt on any of them and they have grown into kind loving people that I am proud to call my children!
Why you hurt a child physically, you ate teaching him that it is ok to hurt your children, and guess what he does the next generation, either repeat what was done to him or learn from you how to be a better parent, by not beating his children!

@Darlingrose, I do not agree with you. When it was generally acceptable for kids to be physically disciplined by parents or teachers the majority learned the parameters of acceptable behaviour without any lasting physical or mental damage.... It was life. My parents didn't believe in corporal punishment but the schools I attended did. I was never a goody-goody but I didn't court trouble either: for me and the majority of my close friends the threat of the cane was a very effective deterrent.

Girls in general learn from words. Boys are strong-willed and many of them tend to be evil if not punished in time.

I was punished physically only at an early age. However, my brothers received the belt or the whip regularly until 18.

No, they shouldn't. Corporal punishment shouldn't be used, on anyone, for anything.

Their own actions were responsible for the punishments they got.

@Simona: *Shakes head in disbelief and decides it's time for bed.*

@ArtieKat: yes I hope it's up and running soon

kitkat: Are you still punished physically?

Wow, you sound like my mother.

@simona, that is VERY generalised and, if you have read any psychological studies, you would know women have more psychopathic traits than men. "many of them tend to be evil" = utter bullshit

@ArtieKat, I am wondering why you do not agree with me? I said the same things that you said, where do you see that we differ?
Darlingrose

Simona, is it prying too much to ask if you were physically punished when you were growing up?

@kitkat: perhaps when the PM facility is operational we can discuss this in greater detail?

some Women argue that such punishments should continue into adulthood, for reasons You suggested.

Simona my parents are also like you, I get the belt or cane a lot and not my sister.

kitkat: You mean only girls deserve it?
