shouldn't the parent be policing and know this before it's time for report cards?
i'm not into using belts and shyt on kids period, but it's definitely not ok re: grades IMO. getting work done/studying, and getting the extra help needed if struggling with a subject, is the job of the parent to be aware of help with, beating your kid when they fail also shows you were failing. every kid isn't going to be an A student, and some, especially when older, might truly reject school, but that's where it's on the parent to figure out how best to help their kid or find their kid a different path, not simply beat them.
Physical discipline isn't a skill, it's an oxymoron. Whooping your kids means you lack emotional discipline. And nobody here has been beat just once. Stop itSome parents don't have to do them more than once.
You see, parenting is application of skills: physical discipline is but one of those skills.
Why would you help your kids with their homework when you can just beat them for doing poorly in school? That's way more effectiveDad is a loser and failure
that old school slave shyt played the fukk out. No way your child gonna act out if you take the time to help them with their school work everyday.

It's a sad thing really. I'm 34 and love my mom but I remember being terrified and hurt emotionally when I got beatings. Even thinking back on them makes me feel uneasy.it's done such a good job that Black people are actually thankful that their parents used physical violence to shape their behaviors.

These kids today not responding to whooping anymore.
Gee. One would think that maybe this isn't working and...oh, I dunno...try something different.
I'm not. Good parenting is proactive. Whoopings are reactive and emotional.Okay, now you're just being foolish.
Whooping is definitely a barometer of emotion. It's a reaction and a blunt tool. Behavior is definitely psychological, not physical. Physical is something like grabbing your kid before they run out into the street. Kids generally think about the things they do and act out for certain reasons. Whoopings point to a lack of understanding of why your kid does what they do and how to communicate in nonviolent ways to modify their behavior.Whooping is not a barometer of emotion; the point is to correct the behavoir...which is the textbook definition of "discipline".
BTW, behavior is physical, so "physical discipline" isn't an oxymoron.
Also, nobody said "nobody her has been beat just once". What I said was one has to be whooped once to remember it,
as if to say "remember why they were 'beat'".
I can't speak for anybody else here, but I remember every whooping I ever got and why I got it. That's my point.
I had good parents, though.
I'
All the studies and evidence point to whoopings having negative long term outcomes for kids. At this point if you still choose to beat your kids you're a dikkhead.
It's not if you are committed and do it right. A lot of people have kids for the wrong reasons with no planning, and then punish the kids for their mistakes. It's not right.It's hard to raise kids though.
That father chose one way
This father chose another
That's what did it for me.I got beaten with bamboo, fingers, belts with and without the buckle, slippers, hard bottomed shoes and of course the open palm. Even had torture where I had to hold me hands on top of my head for hours
TBH it never really caused me to act proper. I think the mere disappointment of my mother got to me worse, but that came with my getting older and logically thinking about right and wrong.
That’s what needs to be introduced into education of children, not physical violent reactions.

Jumping to the defense of people who beat their kids is not very logical breh. And it's obvious you don't like me, but try to hide behind "debate" to express it. Just say "fukk THAT nikka @GinaThatAintNoDamnPuppy!" a couple of times... and say it with your chest so you feel like a man.You showed your hand here. You're emotional about this, and you're wrong.
If you're so firm on good discipline, start by accepting mine.
