Would you spank your children? Were you spanked as a child?

Elizabeth Rose · « **Reply #1 on:** October 10, 2005, 06:11:24 pm »

Yes and yes. Although it can be overused, spanking is sometimes that's the best way to get your point across.

Lil Loco · « **Reply #2 on:** October 10, 2005, 06:12:02 pm »

ima give a hell yea to both questionz...

Fink · « **Reply #3 on:** October 10, 2005, 06:19:07 pm »

Yes, I would. And yes, to the other question too.

Hannahbal · « **Reply #4 on:** October 10, 2005, 07:58:45 pm »

Yes, but not in excess...
and
Yes, and that is why I do not prefer it.

Isnt Anything · « **Reply #5 on:** October 10, 2005, 08:17:12 pm »

Yes I would, not hard and not in excess. A little slap in the rear end is ok and considered legal here in the US, but when you grab your kids by the arm and pull them up off the ground and wack the goo out of them, theres an issue. I think it should be used in moderation, but beating your kids? No..

And very rarley to the other question. Yes, I was, but not very often. I would get yelled at more-so and words hurt more in my opinion.

Thomas · « **Reply #6 on:** October 10, 2005, 11:53:04 pm »

No and no.

I was never spanked as a child, not that I remember too well, and I would not spank any child because I am not having any.

GrEeNdAyFrEaK · « **Reply #7 on:** October 11, 2005, 11:50:31 am »

Yes and Yes. It's perfectly fine as long as it's used with the intention of getting a point across than hurting the child.

Snowthrower · « **Reply #8 on:** October 11, 2005, 12:36:04 pm »

I personally think its a bad punishment, it only teaches them to use violence as a means to punish people, my parents firmly believe this as well.

Elizabeth Rose · « **Reply #9 on:** October 11, 2005, 12:36:26 pm »

So, how many of y'all were the perfect kids? I never, ever, ever got spankings unless one of my brothers framed me. Nope. Not me. I was a good girl. Definitley.

ssj4gogita4 · « **Reply #10 on:** October 11, 2005, 01:10:54 pm »

I got spankings all the time because I was ADHD. I was hardly the perfect child :|

Roger · « **Reply #11 on:** October 11, 2005, 01:15:04 pm »

Yes, and yes.

I don't see it as bad as long as it's not wailing on them.

Jackie-Boy · « **Reply #12 on:** October 11, 2005, 01:49:10 pm »

No.

And no.

I would never spank my child.

To me, that constitutes as beating and sexual abuse. At the same time.

Just the way I feel.

Chrono · « **Reply #13 on:** October 11, 2005, 06:56:13 pm »

No and no. Children shouldnt be spanked. There's a certain type of people that should though, but thats inappropriate for Debate Den.

Rocko · « **Reply #14 on:** October 11, 2005, 07:03:23 pm »

Yes, and Yes
I was spanked as a child, probably because I was ADHD. I would Spank my children if I had too, if I had a kid and he did something really bad I'd spank him. But most of the time I wouldn't.

Hannahbal · « **Reply #15 on:** October 11, 2005, 07:06:43 pm »

I think the only reason I would spank my kid is because it happened to me as a child. Even though I don't really believe in it because of what all happened to me I'll probably still end up doing it to my kid. I know I shouldn't because that's just carrying on another generation of that and then my kid will probably do it to their kid. I know I'll try and control myself but I'm sure that I'll eventually spank them.

AppleNick · « **Reply #16 on:** October 11, 2005, 08:10:34 pm »

No and yes. It was torture to me when I was little.

RandomDude18 · « **Reply #17 on:** October 11, 2005, 08:17:26 pm »

I was spanked sometimes when I was kid for being ADHD. I hated it.

I was the child of satan. XD
I screamed alot, broke anything, swore at the age of 2, hit my older sister and just did what I wanted.
My parents just yelled at me, they never really spanked me, but said they would.

I have AD/HD, too. Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. How did that affect you getting spanked? I have it, and I have a very serious case of it (people think I'm on ecstacy or other things I refrain to mention. Not anymore, but I used to be HORRIBLE), and I don't ever get spanked. I guess I know self-control now more than ever, but yeah. Anyway

I'm going to refrain from spanking my child when I'm an adult. I am moderately violent, so I donno how hard it's gonna be, but I'll try to control myself. I think yelling gets the job done just fine. If the child keeps doing what they're told not to do after yelling at them, ground them from their favorite things or something. If they STILL continue to do it, then it's time for the spanking. I'm not going to rear-end hit them though. Slapping them works better (at least for me it does).

I never get spanked. I'm a pretty well-rounded, good adolescent. If I do something I'm not supposed to be I get a firm "knock it off" and that usually does the trick.

Daniel · « **Reply #20 on:** October 12, 2005, 05:33:37 pm »

Yes and Yes. And Liz always got away with everything. All the time. Never got in trouble; she is to crafty.

Rachy · « **Reply #21 on:** October 14, 2005, 06:06:42 pm »

I don't ever plan on spanking my children.

I was hardly ever spanked as a young child, but once I turned about 13, I got my "I'm a teenager, I can do anything I want" attitude, they began to hit me. My Dad is a large man, and extreamly strong from the heavy lifting his job involves and never went easy on me. When I say that ,I mean being thrown against walls, kicked and punched,having my hair pulled and being pinned down while he smacked the crap out of me. At first I was scared of him, I used to think that it was my own fault that he hurt me the way he did, I used to run away from him because I was scared that he would really hurt me one day, but as I got older, it just made me angry. I hated him, I started to let him hit me however and wherever he wanted so that I had marks to show people who didn't believe me. My parents are really good at playing "the perfect Mummy and Daddy" when their friends are around and they never lay into my little brothers EVER. It's made me a very angry person, I've even started hitting my parents back. I remember once a few years ago, my Dad threw me into my closed bedroom door, making me hit my head and fall onto the ground, he then opened my door, picked me up and threw me into my room. When I fell over again and he kicked me and screamed something at me, he then turned to walk away. I was so angry at him, that I picked up the first thing I could find (my electric keyboard), ran up behind him, and wacked him on the back of the head with it as hard as I could and screamed "DONT EVER TOUCH ME AGAIN!". He didn't hurt me again for a while, but he's started again, even though I'm 18. I think the worst part is that they always say they're sorry afterwards, they spoil me and I have pretty much everything that I want and they think that it makes up for it. My friends always tell me how lucky I am to have so much stuff, and to have parents with so much money, but I would much rather have nothing and know that my parents care about me enough to not hurt me, than to have everything I ever asked for.

I work in childcare, and I know that there are other ways of punishing children. I know my Dad goes way too far, but because of what he has done to me, I get REALLY angry and I don't doubt that I would go too far with my own children. I never want to be like my parents in any way AT ALL, so I will never EVER spank my children. It DOESN'T work.

Compwhiz128 · « **Reply #22 on:** October 19, 2005, 12:59:38 pm »

No and Yes. For me, spanking did nothing but made me MAD!

If I were to do this to my kid, he would probably just get madder.

Whoah, that ain't even spanking. That's beating. Beating is over the line.

By the way, I lied. I got a lot of spankings when I was little.

it is not sexual abuse. it is a belt hitting some brats bottom. it has nothing to do with sexual abuse much less sex alone.
wow, then I suppose we should just give our serial killers "a firm talking to".

I got tons of spankings. these little brats today are lucky, my dad had a plank that was as thick as half a dictionary he drilled holes in it to make "areodynamic" heh. so if I dis obey my parents or I didn't just get a "a firm talking to".

Spanking is not beating nor sexul abuse.

i was spanked about once or twice as a little kid, but i would choose not to spank my own kid. Its BRUTAL!

oscar_the_grouch · « **Reply #28 on:** October 26, 2005, 04:00:36 pm »

Yes I was spanked and no I wouldn't do it my own kids. It just seems stupid in my opinion.

Return of Spiff · « **Reply #29 on:** October 29, 2005, 07:59:48 pm »

I was spanked a few times as a youngster, when I took it over the edge a bit often, but if I REALLY had to get the point across to my children, then maybe I would. I dont consider spanking sexual abuse, but I DO consider extreme beating to be.

Doesn't matter where. If a teacher notices a mark or anything on the body, they will be suspicious

Elizabeth Rose · « **Reply #35 on:** October 29, 2005, 08:26:05 pm »

Er... it's not sexual abuse if they are slapping your face, pulling out your hair, and beating your back. That's just plain abuse.

Yeah, but they wouldnt charge with sexual abuse. They'd call CPS on the parents.

Woah! Beat down on the beating details! This is a topic about child 'spanking' or 'slapping'.
If you want to discuss beatings, make a new topic about it.

I made my statment earlier.

Yeah, but every topic goes a little off topic. Besides, for some parents spanking and beating are one in the same. :sad:

Thomas · « **Reply #39 on:** November 03, 2005, 11:52:48 pm »

That is a little true actually, but I still think physical harm won't make anyone learn anything but how to do the same to others.

Lil Loco · « **Reply #40 on:** November 04, 2005, 07:52:15 am »

hahah, it made me learn sumthin...

do sumthin bad = pain
dont do sumthin bad = no pain

thoze were pretty simple equationz for me to follow...

Fifth Dynasty · « **Reply #41 on:** November 04, 2005, 08:40:04 am »

People that abuse their children should be executed. Same for the opposite. Kids that abuse their parents should, too. Like the Menendez (sp?) Brothers...Those kids deserved death.

I'm never gonna abuse my child. I'm a very threatening and violent person, but I would never do something so stupid to my child.

Lil Loco · « **Reply #42 on:** November 04, 2005, 08:43:04 am »

once again, therez a different between smackin or spankin kidz and abusing them.
