There is a line between thrashing your kid because you are a twisted asshole and smacking your kid that will shock them but teach them a lesson. I think erasing that line just creates a world of problems, there is a reason the latest generation have such little respect for anyone or anything!

exactly!
Genevieve ··
completely agree

I got a smack, didn’t do me any harm. Wouldn’t dare speak to my mother the way my oldest speaks to me x

Exactly! Even when you see the high school kids walking home, the way they talk and swear and shout abuse at adults is disgusting! I was a little shit when i was a kid but i always had respect for adults! X

Pathetic 🤷♀️. If I was naughty I would get a smack or the slipper😂 so if I want to smack my child for been naughty I will. Like you said theres a line between smacking for been naughty then beating your child up

Tbh, if people see smacking a child in a disciplinary way as abuse then they are going about it the wrong way. Smacking to prevent them from harm etc isn't violence, hitting your kid because your pissed off that they won't listen is you being an asshole and letting your frustration out in an aggressive way. There's a difference between the two! X

It's stupid tbh. We used to get a good smack when we were younger and it was the only way it used to stop us being naughty. A smack on the bottom or on the hand wont do any harm.

Honestly I used to hate the idea of smacking Charlie but now he is older my opinion has changed. Particularly if he is doing something that will bring harm to himself, I'd rather give him a tap on the hand which isn't going to harm him, than him potentially lose a finger cause he's messing around with scissors for example. He still rarely ever gets a smack as i don't like to do it if i can help it but I will if i need to! X

yep I completely understand where you're coming from. Smacking just because they're noisy or they're making a mess is in no way justified in my opinion. But doing something that will harm themselves or others is a big no no. I rarely ever smack though because i like to just sit and speak to them and make them understand what they did is wrong. But if it's continuously the same issue i would smack them. Im referring to my two eldest though xx

The way things are now is ridiculous! I used to have a smack across the back side or a smack on the hand and it never did me any harm. But I was also abused by my ex step dad who punched and kicked me just because he could xx

I heard it’s only in Scotland. How could they possibly enforce it though! If my daughter is really naughty at home she gets a smack but I wouldn’t in public because people judge x

Society is in the sorry state its in today, because we aren't disciplining the youth of today correctly.

I never once in my life got a smack but I wouldn't of done half the stuff if i had of. I wont smack mine either but i wouldn't judge if a kid was t run in the road n get a smacked hand for it cos i think i might then if it was a situation like that. So ye i agree with everything you said!! X

There’s a difference between a tap on the hand/bum to ‘violence’ and slapping x

Not thinking about it’s been passed. I broke the law today smacked his hand 🙄 shitty mum alert. They have also done away with named person yet some trusts are retaining it and parents have to decline now! Thoughts on that too?
