There are better ways to discipline kids (and 15yo’s) than beating them.
hmmm really? wow share your insights?
I got spanked when I was a kid and deserved every one of them...
Oh wait... are you unable to differentiate between simple discipline and abusive beating?
Perhaps you should sit a 6 year old down and explain to him the physics of a cars’ momentum as a function of mass and velocity as it applies to the ability to stop when a child runs into a street, rather than whack him on the ass to make him stop doing it...?
All I remember from being a kid is NEVER to run into the street after the first time I did it and my father freaked and gave my butt a good reminder lesson. And I vividly remember it to this day, and thank God he cared enough for me to do it.
