Would i be happy to do that for a living? Yes, yes i would. I envisage you getting the shit kicked out of you by an obstreperous 10 year old girl. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shotgun Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Question for the "My kids and I'll hit them if I want to" posters - Do you also hit your grandparents? I have neither grandparents or children so obviously I'm not allowed an opinion on whether hitting either group is acceptable. Is there a difference and if so, what? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerberus Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I've been heard of it being called Guising. Then again I didn't grow up in the 50s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I am very much against smacking children, I am intrigued at this grandparent hitting thing. Has this been banned yet and do they have to be yours? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you hit your child? 1 minute ago, Bairnardo said: Why are people throwing these bizarre examples in? What's bizarre about it? Why is hitting an elderly person unacceptable to you but hitting a child OK? 3 minutes ago, Bairnardo said: Also, since the bottom point is obviously directed at me, I never said you weren't allowed an opinion, I said I personally won't be lectured to by someone who isn't going through what I am going through in terms of trying to best figure out how to raise my child. I also find it quite bizarre that people have jumped on what I said to defend their right to an opinion, by basically trying to belittle my right to my opinion. My 88 year old mother has dementia and lives in a nursing home. I'm pretty sure that if I admitted to hitting her, plenty of people would "lecture me" even though they aren't going through what I am going through in terms of trying to best figure out how to care for my mother. Obviously you're going to continue hitting your child regardless of what any of us think. But you specified you won't take a lecture from "people who don't have kids." If had kids, could I lecture you then? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Children though...they're fair game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since kids are now protected, I can see old folk getting rough treatment until that loophole is dealt with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chomp my root Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 2 hours ago, Bairnardo said: Like I said there are some exceptions to people who might know a thing or two, but all the moral high ground stuff going on in here, people with zero experience shouting about how parents are abusing their kids because they've given them a wee skelp is utter nonsense. This isnt a black and white issue and it is being painted as one on here. I also didnt suggest all parents are automatically good parents, what I said was purely from my own point of view.There seem to be folk here refusing to acknowledge the difference between a tap on the legs or on the back of the hand versus beating a child and saying its just all abuse. Its just not that simple. I dont discipline my children that way, but for those who dont have children to come on here amd try to villify those who do and call them abusers, is quite cringeworthy to watch. Its almost like some P & Ber's get themselves worked up over whatever is in the papers at the time and behave like its a view that they've been passionate about since 'forevah'........ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
