If you get hit and killed, do they fine your estate $100?

i was going mainly off yr 1st quote in this thread, which suggested that this discipline was hardly limited to infrequent episodes.
maybe i missed any intended hyperbole.
as VB mentioned, infrequent hide-tannings could yield the desired behavioural response, and that's ok. but if the 'engagement' frequency doesn't abate, at what point is it clear that this isn't working, and a different strategy required?the bottom line: if you can handle your kids w/out corporal punishment than consider yourself blessed, however, don't confuse a smack on the butt for abuse and don't assume that it is a neanderthalistic form of discipline because you may not understand why someone would do that.
*side note: i have met a lot of social workers in my line of work that assume that any form of corporal punishment is abuse, however, of those SW's that share that belief, none of them have kids of their own*
I don't recall my father ever hitting me but I'm still one of the most well balanced individuals you cunts are ever likely to encounter.
musta hit you pretty hard.
now that's just heaps of love right there. make sure you send him a valentine.
and that's just it: never let them know when it could happen. as w/ my dad, the fear of him hitting me was far worse than the actual pimp slap.
another point: if you engage your kids too often, they might start up that steep learning curve sooner than you hope, & you'll find yourself wandering your neighborhood naked & bleeding. there are some rites of passage that should be reserved for the fine institutions of marriage & supercross events.
Swirlie?
And yet McDonalds still exists.
