Mom’s swift hand of divine justice didn’t happen often, but when it did you fell right back into line.
Well, after all, liberals believe THEY own your children.
I used to be proud of my Scottish heritage. They are as lost as Sweden.
Is a slipper an implement?
Pretty sure all the Scots that were worth a damn moved to the USA or Australia (or died in WWI/WWII).
What’s left are the spawn of the ineffective.
How can you have any pudding! If you don’t eat your meat!?!?!?
“Is a slipper an implement?”

I dunno, but that wacko Swedish kid would have been mightily helped if one hand been applied.
and these people pushing it will be the first ones to smack you
Sometimes I look for the upvote icon, then I realize this is FR!
They gonna prevent m*zlims from beating their wives?
For leftist thugs, the concept of sin is the only sin.
What about wives? Next they’ll say that’s against the law too!
I was a disciplined child that never grew up hating and blaming my parents, even though a shrink made a very good try at it. There was certain things I got spanked for, and I remember them well. In the eighth grade the teacher smacked the backs of hands with a ruler. Mine was done a couple times. Never grew up traumatized by this either. I never back talked my parents or teachers.
Today’s upside down culture is completely out of whack. The appropriate punishments of yesterday that kept our kids in line are gone, and so are the low crime rates.
An amusing story from my child hood: I was a naughty little boy, probably about 7 or so and Mom said I’d get a spanking when Dad got home. He drove in the yard and I took one of Mom’s plates from the kitchen and slid it down the back of my pants. Dad came in, I got on my hands and knees to crawl behind the couch with my bottom exposed. Had whacked me and hurt his hand. This story was told at our family gatherings.
Yeah, don’t hit your kid in the face or with an instrument. Not hard.
Isn’t smacking the Scotsman’s way of working off a hangover?
“...with critics arguing that the current law is sufficient, and that the changes risk criminalising “good” parents.”
>>>>>>>>>>>>
That’s the point. More hooks for the state to get into people’s lives.
“I used to be proud of my Scottish heritage.”
Same here.
When adults misbehave, we shoot them.
When kids behave, we spank them.
Next up: ban the tickle torture!
Pretty sure that is a violation of the Geneva convention.
