it's also because they are screwing up...since my kids act in a normal manner, i don't have to spank them. but everyone is not so lucky. maybe you want your kids to wind up in a gang, or prison, or dead, then get them to a big group hug, and talk about everyone's feelings.

Sense time began.

Violence=love

no, spanking = love... there is a difference.

What I'd like to know is this, why won't you answer my question?

When did it become ok for a CHILD to ABUSE an ADULT?

ok,, I guess all these years I was happy , loving and respecting my folks, I was only kidding myself about what violent abusers they were,,


although , I have yet to hear of an abuser who pays all your bills, feeds you(your choice of food), clothes you(your choice of clothes) , buys you presents, pays for your vacations, attends all your school functions, constantly hugs and kisses you, tends to you when you are sick and gives you the freedom to move about freely in return for NOTHING but attending school and cleaning some things at home,,,,


I bet alot of abused kids still turned out happier than those with parents who never laid a hand on them, or HUGGED them, or attended any of their accomplishments, or taught them anything, or spent any time with them, ,,,,,etc,,,

but its ALL because of those random swats to my behind that this delusion has caused me to spend a whole lifetime thinking I Was happy ,,,,,

consequences=reality

Striking someone is violence.

Do it to an adult sometime and see what happens.

Anyway

I have to change my club name.

Unknowingly Unhappy Spanked Children Anonymous

First step is to let go of denial
Second step is to hold all responsible parties responsible
Third step is forgiveness of self and others
Fourth step is to recover from possible PTSD
Fifth step is to denounce all violence against those who cannot defend themselves.

Hello, Now, I am a Known to me Unhappy Spanked Child in recovery.

If you can't do it to an adult and them accept it as love, it shouldn't be done to children.

I am not talking about sexual spanking either.

Again, I agree with you. And guess what..the swats were nothing compared to the absolute lack of attention. Try growing up invisible. We all have been raised with how we feel we may have somehow been wronged as a child. But then we put our big boy/girl panties and develop CHOOSE our own way and get on with life.

That's not answering my question.

Why won't you answer my question?

Why is it ok for a CHILD to ABUSE an ADULT?

lol...unknowingly unhappy,,,,,HAAAAAAAAA


can we imagine that, organizations and professionals set up to convince otherwise happy people that they should be UNHAPPY?



I See quite a market in it,,,,,interesting concept

just wondering... do you have any kids? and, have you ever been spanked sexually?

I am going to hit you child and you better feel loved from it

well, I cant take an adults car away if I dont like what they did or said,, and I Cant force them into a corner, or make them remain in one designated room,,,,


so I dont think that necessarily applies as a qualifier for childhood discipline,,many things we do with children that we cant with adults and vice versa

When I raise my hand to you, it is in love that I cause you pain.

Hey now..Im quite happy in my own little world ..they have cookies!

kids are being taught, adults are supposed to know.

Because you hit a nerve she has no answer for? Hmmmm
