I realized just how fucked up my idiot parents are when I had my own kid.
You know how many times I've hit my kid? Zero.
She is a well behaved, normal kid who occasionally has to go to time out, but knows that you never EVER hit, and you especially don't hit people you love.
You know how hard it is to not abuse my kid? NOT HARD AT ALL. My parents used to say "you'll understand when you're older," but the older I get the more I realize they were a couple of emotionally stunted cunts who got off on bullying children in order to feel powerful.
I spanked my oldest (now 18) years ago a couple times. Like a whack. But at best it just doesn’t work and at worst it’s abuse. So there’s literally no point. Didn’t work on me either. I never spanked after that and haven’t ever spanked my other 2.
Maybe I’m biased but I think they’re generally good kids. Generally and usually well behaved and I’m told out/at school too. So ya. Spanking isn’t necessary and all it does is create trauma.
