I got belts and extension cords. Just made me get better at getting away with shyt. I talk to my kids for their rationale without physicality and they got better at talking.

I'll take that approach.
A lot of people say this but I don't know if it's solving the problem. Yes you'll sneak more and do things you shouldn't behind your parent's back when a belt is involved but you'll do that anyway. Almost all kids sneak and do things they shouldn't. Help me understand

Let's say the scenario is that the child is directed to go to sleep at 9:30 PM. The child always turns the TV back on past that point every night despite being told not to and it becomes a problem. Outside of removing the TV from their room, which can become cumbersome and sometimes impossible to consistently do depending on the TV, how do you rectify this behavior? Talking to them and explaining to them that they shouldn't ad nauseum is fine, but at some point there's got to be escalating consequences for repeated negative behavior and disobedience, no? What's the further course of action? How do we reliably get to the point of them turning the TV off and following instructions with the TV still in the room?

Genuine question, trying to understand the logic and course of action of parents who don't do physical punishment

If necessary, yes, but my main method and first option will always be talking it out. I won’t spank my daughter, though. I’ll leave that up to her mama. Never saw my dad spank my sister, but my mama got her a few times

I got spanked, but it was a rare occurrence. My mom spanked me the most growing up, but my dad got me a few times. It was serious when he got me

I'm old enough to remember corporal punishment in schools. Did that work?

Some of y’all are acting like kids who get spanked automatically learn the lesson, and don’t repeat the behavior. Most kids who get hit, will do the same wrong things, and keep getting hit.
Because if you put a kid in timeout, you'll never need to do it again. Or take away their video games you'll only need to do it once in their entire lives right? :mjlol:

i never got whooped but when i was real small my dad would do little shyt like make me hold my hand out and slap it kinda hard. just once and that was enough for me :to::sadbron::deadrose:


so hell yeah i’d do that. kids don’t have the foresight to understand consequences that are too remote or to talk out every little thing until a certain age

i was on a plane last week and the couple behind me had a kid who was screaming, whylin, throwing up on itself for an hour while they tried “gentle parenting” the kid out of it. thats child cruelty to me because you’re letting this kid be violently out of control for a extended span of time until it exhausts istself when taking them to the bathroom and give em a swift spank on the butt will solve the problem in 75 seconds and return then to normalcy so they can watch paw patrol or whatever. but mfs is too scared of their own authority and that they might permanently scar their children for life, so they think they can be reasonable and talk rational sense with a fukkin 2 year old

Both of my brothers got hit way more than me and they are not productive human beings and it did not stop them from doing what they wanted to do when our parents were not around. I only got spanked once.

Didn’t make a difference, every boy especially knows you gonna do what you gonna do out of your parents sight. It’s the gunuine respect for your parents and not wanting to let them down that makes smarter decisions happen. Little kids can get a pinch or a tap. Nothing wrong with that. But all the parents thinking whipping they child ass with a belt or making them pull down they pants and hitting them hard is acceptable in 2023 need to ask yourself why your children need to be spanked to listen to you, when so many others raise better children by refraining from that.

fukk who (kids) wants to go without they game or tablet for a week. Far more powerful than a whooping now a days anyway. Kids are sensitive and people need to accept there were a lot of bad parents who are just making excuses because they don’t know how to raise they own children properly, so they want to project they situation on everybody else and say this is what other parents should do as well.
