Ummm...that's not discipline. Those are clear examples of child abuse.


Nah. Depends on the dad. Some just spank a kid. But if you bow up to your old man, you're pretty much begging for an arse whipping. Never had a pugilistic encounter with my father. He only had to slap the shite out of me once to make his point.

What does this even mean? Its child abuse, no matter what dad does it.

Dad would tell me that I would have to kneel on rice for an entire day. He'd also tell me that he'd leave me at the boy's home that he had to go to when he was a kid.

Some dads are more passive than others. Some fathers will knock the snot out of their kid. It ain't child abuse. Others will nurture and coddle their child.

The poster said he squared off with his father. Most dads I know would pound their son into sand if their kid did that. Some won't. Ergo, it depends on the dad.
It ain't necessarily child abuse to leave a bruise on your kid.

Oh there was no threat. I got my as handed to me a few times. One time I tried to fight back, and got a roundhouse to the chest that sent me head first into a metal staircase and I had to get 13 stitches on my forehead.

Another time I fought back, I had my entire right arm turn purple.

It was a bruise from the shoulder to the wrist.

Never a belt either. I would get hit, sometimes closed fist.

Serious question: are you black?
The only people I know who have stories of being hit like this and still love/respect their parents are black

Likely more catholic. That's something I always heard the old nuns did back in the day for Catholic schools.




480...exactly. There is quite a difference in spanking your child(with an open hand) and hitting them with a closed fist.


I was spanked as a kid (open hand) and the few times I was...it was an effective way to discipline me. So I'm def not one of those that thinks spanking is child abuse.


But beating up your kid to the point they need stitches or their arm turns purple?? Yeah that's child abuse. As a nurse I would have been mandated by law to call CPS and report that if I saw a pediatric patient with injuries like that and that was the story they gave me.

Whichever way you slice it, kicking your kid into something where he has to get 13 stitches is child abuse.

And giving your kids bruises is also child abuse you sick frick

I have a cousin that would get strap whipped and it would leave huge whelps and bruises. He's white. That was before 'SCAN' existed. I witnessed it and it scared me to no end whenever I would visit. His mother was sadistic. I am convinced.

They are both dead. It was only his mother that beat him like that. She would threaten him to not tell his dad and he wouldn't. She was a witch.

Does he love and respect them? His dad?...yes. His mother?...I would guess that he has a screwed up perspective. Let me put it this way...he's crazy and I'm convinced that I know the reason why.

I agree

Settle down Francis. Kids get bruises. It ain't all child abuse. Good lord some of you people are pussies. No one is condoning bruising a child. But if he's stupid enough to bow up on his father, it is what it is. I could understand if he was defending his mother or sister. But being a smart arse little shite who thinks he can take his old man is worthy of a bruise.



Unless he can actually pull it off.

Ya but this IS child abuse:

If a kid squares up against their dad he should be able to defend himself, and even get a lick in before restraining him, but what he described was WAY over the line.

My mother used to threaten me in grade school that she would come to the school, get on the intercom, & tell the entire school how much of a little shite I was. Needless to say, my mother is crazy.

Yes kids get bruises, but if the way you are punishing your child results in them getting bruises, you need to change the way you punish your child. If not for their sake than for yours, because if a teacher sees that you could get arrested.

480 I concur that was over the line. Again, I'm not condoning actually abusing a child. But I bruise easily- can't even trip over the ottoman without bruising. My dad only hit me on a few occasions. I bruised every time. It wasn't child abuse. It was me being a shite head and needing a whack. I wasn't abused
