Man you are one sick [deleted for abuse] you should be reported and institutionalized before someone gets to you.

You are wasting your time fellers, trying to talk to women about their kids.

A mate of mine had to knock his 24 year old son out with a cricket bat, when he found the son demanding money off his mother to support his drug habit, by holding a carving knife to her throat.

The mother still thinks he is "a good boy really" just a bit off the rails.

The only thing that kid is good for would be making fertiliser, & I mean the blood & bone variety.

Dear Platypus900,

You whinge “now i am getting a flavor on how issues are discussed here”.

You came into this forum with a thread titled “Let no man tell me how I should discipline my children”, slandered our concerned professionals who see the often traumatic results of physical punishment meted out to children calling them fame seekers, you then deride the years of social justice achieved by the 'Western tradition' which lead the way in securing rights for children, such as the right to an education and an end to the workhouses of old and basically labelled the vast majority of us who do not employ a cane on our two year old children as risking 'an entire generation'.

And that was all in your first post so if you are upset with the response, tough.

The reason people such as yourself employ a cane is to concentrate the force of an arm swing on to a smaller area of flesh thus elevating the pain and distress felt by the victim.

and then this;

“after the punishment, i ALWAYS give them a hug and i will always ask them if papa loves them they will say yes (not much choice there)”

So you were forcing them to affirm a love for you after you wilfully harmed them? Why didn't you just tell them straight out that you loved them? This smacks of such self-justification that it is frankly disturbing and surely emotionally abusive toward the child.

One of the reasons why caning was stopped in government schools was that the teachers felt quite strongly that it demeaned them and their role. Here were people who in your reasoning had the most to gain by retaining corporal punishment yet gave it up for that reason.

As Jesus said in Luke “And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.”

Caning two year olds is deeply offensive behaviour to most thinking, caring and undiminished people.

@hasbeen

1. the young man who held his mother to knife point should be reported to the police
2. i dont know how he has been brought up...maybe by reasoning and definitely no spanking or caning... now too late
3. cricket bat... that is extreme...that will injure and even kill...just report to the police...too late for discipline

this young man will bite off the ear of his mother when he is in prison

@chrisgaff

you are rude and vitriolic
you likewise has been binned
be informed i will not read your posts or any posts of people i binned
welcome to the real world
you have a right
so do i
my right is not to talk or discuss matters with you
i will not call you names because i was well brought up
i am sure your mother didnt bring you up well
it shows

Please, I think it is time this tread was laid to rest and everybody agrees to disagree. People are starting to get rather nasty and acting like naughty children.

@Lexi

sometimes shalom
sometimes peace
sometimes blessing
sometimes cheers

what is your preference?

@poirot

on why you even bother to come to this forum to discuss when you are so filled with angst with members like myself and a few others

a. you need affirmation
b. when you were young, you pushed boundaries and your parents didnt discipline you and so you are not 'well adjusted'
c. deep inside you, you know you are not quite right about this topic or death sentence and you are still searching. Maybe you know we are right but like poor nicodemus, you find it hard to go back to your mother's womb?

just some thoughts
