stormgoddess said: When I was a kid till my teenage years, yeah, so much that my lips/mouth, nose, and some other body parts bled countless times. Even once got beaten up the night before my birthday. Tough body I got here though. :P And they were the ones who apologized first anyway so I guess that's okay...? DesolateOne said: Hell yeah. I got my ass beat plenty of times. It's fucked up but I got beaten so bad once that cops came and tried to take me away. I got beat up another time so bad it left me in bed for 2 days straight. First instance was for such a dumb reason but second was totally my fault. Fck. Even if it was your fault that was just too much. ): Of course it isn't ok. Maal said: No huge beating, but i did get some bruise and stuff. There was also alot of yelling, me and my sis were raised to be perfect lil children that are always nice and no misbehavior were tolered. We go visit an uncle? Sit down there and don't move or talk until we leave. If i was thirsty and accepted a juice or something that the host offered me (i DARE make the host work), i could see the '' Just wait till we get home '' in my dad eyes. Anyway, something seem to have changed in the past years, my little brother never got touched or anything, and he's growing into a nice spoiled ignorant king of the world, like most of the kids today... If a little beating is all it take to removed those brats from the face of earth i'm all for it. Hey its only a beating. Nothing wrong with that at all. |
| Yes. But my mom gave up when i was six, because at every hit, i laughed louder. D= |
| Yes, I grew up in a very disfunctional family (Dad had 14 domestic violences). If I ever have a kid though I would never hit them, I wouldnt even spank them. |
 |
| Ha, yeah. But oh boy am I grateful for that. |

| I've gotten slapped and my dad used to throw plastic bowls full of food at me but I am also greatful to them. Oh and once I got slapped in the face and I had trouble hearing for days but it's my own fault for trying to pull off a lie. Parents can be wonderful and I love mine. |
RenaPsychoKiller said: I was a good kid, so I got slapped only a couple of times, for serious things. Never spanked. It's disturbing to see how many violent parents there are. DevilishTime said: People like you should not have children. Or dogs, for that matter.Yes, when I was a child I normally got hit when I did something wrong, I think it's a good method of education, I'm not against it, I'll hit my kids for sure xD ^because of this kind ideology, there are so many spoiled brats in this word now. |
| Nope, I tried to be good kid due to my phobia of police officers at the time. |
 |
| No. My parents aren't that mean to me. :P |
| I don't think most of the parents hit their children for the fun of it. In my case it was to keep me away from bad things and I'm reslly grateful for that D: |
IZUMI64 said: ^because of this kind ideology, there are so many spoiled brats in this word now. ^can't put it into better words. I was pretty bad when I'm small, so things like bullying and vandalising was normal to me. Man , I still remember those days where my parents and teachers gave me canings all the time. But I'm totally grateful that they did that. Education can come in many ways. |
 |
| I was hit with a slipper when I was younger. That was about it. |
 |
| Yeah. I even used to hide under the bed to run away, but then when they found me they would resort to the broom instead and I'd be screwed lol |
 |
| I don't remember being hit hard. I remember a few slaps to the face though. |
 |
| Several times when I was younger, but they haven't been able to lay a hand on me since my teens, when I grew way too strong and tall for them. |
| Nope. |

| My mother once kinda strangled me, but stopped immediately and then bought me ice cream xD |
Carmine said: Sir_Lexa said: My mother once kinda strangled me, but stopped immediately and then bought me ice cream xD Why would she randomly stop and then rush to buy you ice-cream?! I wonder what happened As for the discussion above about hitting your own kids or not; TBH, the new generation haven't really got hit here and they are SO spoiled. I dislike it, but I think there should be a limit to hitting, a little spank/pulling ear would be enough. You're right. My little brother isn't even getting yelled at and these days he's the one abusing the older siblings. He's only 5 xD |

| Yeah, I was spanked a few times as a kid when I misbehaved. I was generally a calm and obedient child so it didn't happen often. But my mother was VERY strict with me. I think that as a doctor and a single mother she wanted to have a perfect child. I don't think it was right. I'm in my 20s now and I suppose that my problems with low self-esteem partially stem from that. |

Karhu said: No. |

| Yes all the time. I wasn't even bad but I tended to forget things a lot. |

She IS a very good doctor. She's always been perfectly kind and supportive towards all her patients (she's pediatrician actually). She's still loved and respected by the whole district. Sometimes I wondered if bringing me up with iron fist wasn't her way to vent all her frustrations. It was only me :/ Fortunately it started to change when I reached my teenage years. |
| Yes, my father. |

Sometimes, people do this because they treasure that one and want them to grow up to be a good person. Have you ever thought it about that way? She doesn't seem like a bad mom though. I know that. It's not like I hate her. I actually have pretty good relations with her right now. But I don't think that this tiny bit of resentment in the back of my mind will ever go away. Resentment that she didn't want to see that I was a very sensitive kid and even a light punishment always had a large impact on me. |
| i only got spanked, and that was probably only 3 times and not since the age of 6-8 and to be honest my mum and dad were really against it. |
| Yes. It runs in the family. |

I wonder what happened I was maybe 5 years old at the time. We were on the way to the store. I don't remember every small detail. But I was whining about something, then my mother told me to stop whining, I called her a "Fucking Bitch". She said "WHAT?" and strangled me for 2 seconds maybe. She realized that what she was doing is wrong so she felt bad and bought me Ice Cream. |

I love it, calling people spoiled brats to defend the stupid mentality that supports hitting people. You are pathetic. It's appalling how many children grow-up by thinking it's alright to hit your kids because they got hit too. Copies of their damn parents unable to change their selfs into something better. |

| No, never. There are other ways to make children bahave. Violence is never a solution and parents hitting their children aren't exactly a good role model either. |
EvilInDisguise said: Just to play devils advocate, why not? History has repeatedly shown that violence is often the answer, ranging from civil disputes, to petty theft, to law enforcement, to full on wars. From a psychological standpoint, passive aggressive parenting techniques imbued by the average parent result in severe behavioural, dissociative, and discipline issues.No, never. There are other ways to make children bahave. Violence is never a solution and parents hitting their children aren't exactly a good role model either. |

Carmine said: Drunk_Samurai said: LMAO @ the spoiled brat comment. You're the one who doesn't know the difference. Monad got this one perfectly. It just depends on how you look at it, YOU may think it's abuse, but others are grateful to their parents of how they raised them. Can't do anything about it. They are grateful because that's how they where taught and besides is uncomfortable to disapprove it since children have an inborn desire to love their parents not to mention they will have to admit that something was wrong in the way they were taught which will bring unpleasant feelings. When i was small i refused to believe my father wasn't a good man even after ending into the hospital, i had to visit a few more times and start reading a few things to realize that the reality i was living wasn't how it should be. I guess if you never even needed to get close to the hospital it will be harder to disapprove it since it's easier to live with it and even accept it as something good instead of putting yourself in an uncomfortable position about your parents or feelings. |

| Yeah my mother used to punch me and the sorts when I was younger. Horrible experience, never going to let my children experience that. |

| Woah, spanking is child abuse ? There's a huge difference between a spanking and a beating, one is controlled and meant to teach kids to behave, the other is meant to hurt, is usually uncontrolled and results in physical harm to the child. I was spanked as a kid when I misbehaved and so were my brother and most of my friends, yet we all turned out to be relatively normal, balanced individuals and I don't know of anyone who suffered any long-term harm from getting spanked. All the rambling about such parental discipline resulting in trauma and emotional damage is nonsense, specially when it comes from people who have never got spanked. I personally wouldn't spank my children, not that I think it would be wrong, but I have a personal preference for other methods. Now, if other parents want to spank their kids, I don't see anything wrong with that. Also, calling people spoiled brats just because they've never been spanked is equally nonsensical. |

| Yes, most of it has been just slapping and such but I've had a remote thrown at my head, been beaten with a stapler, beaten with shoe, beaten with a belt (that one left bruises DX) and kicked. Tch, my mother is a violent, temperamental (brute) woman. That's why, when I get older I'll strive not to be ANYTHING like her~ |
