The proof of the pudding is a lack of people willing to call their own parents abusers on the basis of a smack. I have purposefully not said whether I agree or disagree with the new law so far on here, purely because the sensationalism thats being used in the arguements so far makes it utterly pointless. Looks like the SJW's have been called out. Anyone else who skelps/slaps/leathers/batters feck out of a wean* is naughty but not my silver haired Saint of an old maw/paw**. *Pick your own terminology **That was different, I was a handful etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading this again, you appear to be utterly perfect, or delusional. I suspect delusional. If not then you're really in the wrong thread. This thread is about hitting kids. This thread is NOT about hitting kids. It's about outlawing the smacking of kids. A tap on the arse is now against the law. Then again you haven't actually argued against my logic, just called me names. The shock is that the telling off has been escalated. Im not delusional and I'm not perfect but Im completely in control of myself when I chastise my child. Would you like to try again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is there any other way of deterring them? Yes. But remember you're not hurting them, it's more of a pat on the back. That'll teach them.

Bobby Skidmarks Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Just now, Bairnardo said: Likely true but I imagine they are in the minority. What I don't understand is the clamour to throw round words like abuse and make stupid comments about people beating their children as if thats what they are actually doing. If there are sufficient and reliable studies that show this practice does more harm than good then fair enough, but folk need to calm down with the nonsense they are throwing about in here. I must be in the minority as I was never smacked as a child. I certainly haven't been run over, touched electrical cabinets, etc etc. So you can understand why some posters using these excuses for smacking doesn't exactly make sense to me. My Dad did give me a dead leg once when he fell off a ladder I was supposed to be keeping steady, if that helps at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy85 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 My parents wouldn’t have even dreamt of striking me or any of my siblings. Parenting is a piece of piss all things considered and it’s staggeringly simple not to hit children if you don’t have an uncontrollable urge to harm kids.

"PC Brigade" and "SJW" been said now, just waiting for "Snowflake" and I've got bingo. I'm claiming SJW, I only heard the term for the first time a couple of months ago and I had a 'light bulb' moment and thought of P & B. I get why you would take it as some kind of insult, from me, it pretty much is. Any cause will do, prime example, smacking kids, not a peep out of the masses until it hits the news/someone starts a thead and then all the dyed in the wool rage about it. Funny, didn't hear anything about it yesterday on here but today its flavour of the month. so spleens have to be vented and any nay sayers shouted down. Colour me scournful.

I don't understand the "hitting a child when they try to run out into the road will stop them doing it again" argument, mainly because I can't for the life of me picture how you're supposed to do it. If you have to lurch and grab them or something, or say they reach out to touch a hot ring on a cooker or something that could hurt them and instinctively you slap their hand to stop them, that to me would be normal. I have this vision of someone stopping their child from suddenly running out into the road and then holding them up to hit them on the legs or something. It doesn't make sense.

Scary Bear Posted October 20, 2017 Author Share Posted October 20, 2017 Can we ban smacking of kids and introduce mandatory smacking for idiots? Aye, bash on. Start in Barnsley. Those c***s need a good fucking hiding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not having been there but the smack/sense of drama about the whole process turns a 'Darwin moment' into a bit of a drama (with a smack) that the kid remembers because the parent is so affected by it. An event that sticks with the kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Change it up a bit It’s not fishing to suggest fully grown adults should be forbidden from smacking babies/toddlers ffs. It is genuinely disturbing to think that people see that as acceptable behaviour. Striking defenceless children. It’s abhorrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An event that sticks with the kid. I wasn't asking about the effect, I was asking about the practicality. How do you do it? Where do you hit them? Why is your first reaction to hit them... wherever it is you hit them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
