Teenager Whoopin For Acting Hard On Facebook (Vid)

I dont think you guys get the difference between corporal punishment and abuse. And this is why we have people who can shout abuse because they think they are noble/moral and in someway helping anything. No one said a spanking is noble, and im damned sure parents dont like to do it. But when worse comes to worse, its needed sometimes. A spanking is something that is dished out because of bad behavoir that warrented it. Not because the parents just feel like doing it. Furthermore, a spanking which is short term, is a great way to convince the guilty party to not do it again. Its called negative reinforcement. Just like sending them to there room does. But guess what, making your kid stare at a wall, eat soap or sit in their room with no dinner is more abusive than a straight *** whoopin followed by a stern lecture on why they got that *** whoopin. Dont try to make an whoopin like its just hitting your kid for no reason.

And before you say, "OMG, your kid is going to fear you, and you will develop a bad relationship with them." NO. This violence bring more violence is the dumbest argument I have ever heard. Your child is not going to turn into a war mongering muscle head because you spanked them. Kids have been getting there *** whooped for centuries. Who the hell are you to say a tried and true tradition is wrong because your ideal scruples say its wrong? And now that we have this generation of "no spanking because I will ruin my kids personlity or future", our society is being effected by it (this not being the only thing though). We are becoming a bunch of whiny people who think that if we do somehting wrong, we can just sit down for a few minutes without T.V. and anything more than that is abuse.

Please dont act like you are better in anyway because you are not intelligent enough to realize that spankings, just as time out and lectures, are sometimes needed. And since we are going to make up personality flaws associated with parents who do whoop there child, I will say that any parent who dosnt is lazy and isnt really interested in the outcome of their childs life. I feel sorry for the people that are so blinded by there desire to be wrongfully moral that they dont do it. Your not doing your kids any favors. Its called tough love for a reason. And this isnt to say that every child needs a whooping. But, as stated before, they are warrented sometimes.

And I must know, in extreme circumstances when a child has done something horribly wrong, like cursing at a teacher, stealing, blatent disrespect for you and any other grown up, bullying, constantly skipping school after being punished, constantly being in fights, acting like a thug in public; how would these non-spankers handle a childs behavior? I can think of many ways, but I would like to know what you would do. Please share your enlightend parental skills and how talking to a being that is factually characterized as troublesome and having a lack of respect? Do tell.

o.O What NY are you talking about, we're pretty darn tame compared to those crazy Boston folk or those New Jersey people.

this whole pussy mentality of how this is child abuse is the same reason dodgeball is no longer in gym class

Lol, some people in this thread are rather comical ... or braindead.

There is a big difference between a "spanking" and whipping someone 10-20 times with a belt during an anger-laden rage.

It's the same difference between discipline, and abuse.

If I were this uncle, I would get a lawyer asap and make sure this video gets cleaned off the internet. Because there is absolutely no doubt it could be used as incriminating evidence in a criminal trial for assault and/or child abuse.

I don't care if you don't like that. That's the facts.

Thanks Pawnskipper for elaborating on the difference once again, lol.

Some people just don't get it :/

Also this, lol.

last I checked people have been having countless wars for centuries too, doesn't mean it's right. Violence isn't necessary when parenting, hitting your child means you're a piece of ***parent who shouldn't have *** had kids. Nothing warrants a person several times a child's size hitting them, nothing.

/waits

My parents are very intelligent strong willed people. It shows weakness when you dont whoop your kids. I got my shares of whoopings (which means alot of em) and I dont solve my problems with violence. Actually, I am a really peacefull person. And I would bet that 95% of the people who did get whooped dont do the violence thing and have alot of respect for others. So where are you getting this spanking your kids leads to solving your problems with violence?

once it's online, it can never be "cleaned"

I'm not sure where you grew up, but where i live child abuse is not 10 whips of a belt on the ***. It's getting beaten to a pulp for absolutly no reason.

LOL. but this can go either way. Some people beat there dogs, and some dont. Where are we going with this photo? >.>

you =/= every case

also there's many other circumstances involved.

Your parents were ***if they hit you, end story.

well spanking isn't really abuse so im fine with that, if you have an 8 year old and you beat the ***out of him or hit him with a cord i could see that being a bit uncalled for

i mean when i was like 10 my stepdad grabbed me by the throat and threw me against the wall and started choking me, something like that is abuse, getting hit with a belt at this kids age isn't

Thats what alot of people dont get.


edit: i quoted twice on accident. lol

Ditto.
I love your posts on this subject btw.

and in some places getting beaten to a pulp is the norm, don't try to justify abuse just because it's the norm where you are.

it's still abuse

i bet somewhere being put in time out is abuse

to you maybe

But that video is not abuse...

It's implying to use Caesar's method of becoming the alpha member of the pack.

Caesar doesn't abuse animals.

Ahhh although I dont equal every story, neither does your notion that every child being spanked does either. But your opinions on my parents are noted. If the the people who nurtured, cared, taught, disciplined, and charised me are pieces of ***, than I love those pieces of ***. You and everyone else who are against an whoopin have not told us about what you would do in extreme circumstances. Waiting?

You're either really dumb or really naive.

Angry, screaming, cursing man uses belt to whip another person that is not threatening him. 15 times.

Not only is this blatant child abuse, it's also assault and battery. If the kid (or his parent(s)) filed a complaint with the police, the uncle would be convicted and likely face jail time with a felony on his permanent record.

Again, it doesn't matter if you agree or disagree. This is the facts. You can debate about whether this is "good parenting" or "bad parenting". But there is no debate that the uncle in the video is a CRIMINAL.

Bar none. Case closed. Too bad if you don't like it.

Time out billy! Sit in the corner!

Saying that spanking a child is the same as real child abuse, is like saying Caesar Milan and Micheal Vick use the same methods of training a dog.

Yes. There are different forms of pain. Just because you think you are not hurting you child physically, dosnt mean you are hurting them in some way.

.........Where you abused as a child?
