    Smacking should not be banned in society.Parents need their autonomy.Banning smacking in society doesn't stop violence in society.Violence in society is more complicated than that.I was smacked as a child but didn't grow up to be violent.We live in the real world,not a utopia.Stop with this nanny state social engineering nonsense.

      @@lewiswise7808 Sorry, my mistake, you are right. But I am pretty sure the cultural change preceded the law of beating children at home. The works of Alva Myrdal and her husband was influential from about the mid 30s. My grandparents told stories of being spanked and caned though and they were strongly opposed to it. I havent heard of anyone in my parents generation (born in the 50s) who was smacked by their parents... There was so much social reform in especially the 50s here. And in the 40s there was a film (Hets) about a sadistic teacher that sparked debate. I was quite shocked when I moved abroad and found out that it was not only legal but widely accepted.

    It’s illegal in New Zealand for years. They tried to stop the abuse on children, it didn’t change anything the abused are still abused. The problem is now the kids know that the parents aren’t allowed to smack , the children now hold it against the parents . The children in New Zealand now do what they want, and now they have no respect for adults. They say on here they have good kids but what about the other 90% of children. My advise is don’t bring that law in.

      What about when your child is constantly hitting you? Or when you tell them as a teenager they aren't allowed out of the house late at night, but they can call the police on you if you physically stop them for false imprisonment. I've not smacked mine, but I've been hit a lot and even restraining them has resulted in little ones being emotional and really upset, as well as there being no consequences for the child as I'm separated from dad. Children should always have rights and should never be hit in anger, but they also need to understand that actions have consequences. So I'd like a solution please as to what you would do if your 13 year old went missing.

    This is one of many reasons why I'm scared of having children when or if the time comes... My parents smacked me and my brother occasionally when we were small and our behaviours got out of control. Not to hurt us or make us cry, but to sort of stun us into not committing that same or similar behaviour again. What if I have children and they misbehave? You can't smack them, can't shout at them, can't swear at them, can't smoke or drink around them... What else is there to do? Just let them misbehave at home and in public?? 🙃

    No it’s not okay to smack your kid. Not all children have the same tolerance and ability to take any physical punishment from parents (and they shouldn’t have to). I agree with the women on the left completely! Instilling fear into a child or threatening to smack them in order for the child to submit to you is the least loving thing to do. It is not right, it won’t help, in fact it could make things a lot worse.

      I agree with you. I've seen parents who want to appear decent and only slap their kids on the wrist (in public) take that too far. One mom slapper her daughter's hand so hard it folded in and I thought her wrist had broken. The girl was in tears and I, a child myself at the time, was horrified. There are better ways to discipline children. Parents tend to hit their children out of anger and loss of control themselves. That's not discipline, that's abuse.

    Smacking means you aren't safe with them. Also good parenting doesnt involve THREATENING CHILDREN. Parents should never make threats they aren't prepared to follow through on.. you're child wont respect you if they think you're a liar
    Another word for smacking is hitting. We only call it smacking when talking about kids. A great way to teach kids violence is unacceptable is by being violent.. parents, lead by example. Children are watching you and learn by copying behaviour
    If you are resorting to smacking you have already lost, because you have lost control

    I knew a woman who was anti smacking and had a daughter who was a horrible child, a bullying teenager and a precocious adult. It makes me laugh when i see comments such as 'talk to your child' 'reason with them'....ok....so when youre in the middle of a shop and your 2 year old is screaming for new wellies and trying to knock items off shelves, apart from screaming back at her you just calmly let her get on with it? When your 3 year old boy loses your grip and runs into a busy road i ask him to come back quickly??? No, i run towards him and grab him back and smack his bottom to shock him never to do that again because funnily enough i dont want him to risk that again - we are comparing adults to children with limited capacity of communication and in the heat of a moment our instincts kick in to protect. We as stressed mums at times are pushed to the limit, we arent bad and we arent beating our children, but sonetimes there is a place for snacking. As Narindar says, unfortunately it will not stop those parents beating and abusing their children whatever laws the country puts in place.

      The word discipline means to teach. It does not mean to hit. If you're so run off your feet, stressed out then maybe having kids isn't the right thing to do. People should have kids when they know they're able to give all the time that requires, and that's a lot of time. Teach road safety but if they're too young use children's reins. Teach them

  • @darrenmiles-morland8038
    @darrenmiles-morland8038 20 дней назад

    This debate is completely missing the point. Firstly, you should never hit a child on any part of their body other than their clothed bottom. The woman advocating for smacking is saying that kids should be smacked on their bare hands. Smacking on the bare skin can leave red marks on a child's body, more often than not causes physical pain, therefore it is a form of child abuse. Giving a child one moderate smack with the open palm of the hand on a clothed bottom won't hurt them, won't leave red marks on their body, won't make them yelp with pain, and won't even make them cry. But it will make them realise very quickly that naughty, disobedient, disrespectful behaviours will not be tolerated. The other point that is being missed is that not once does this woman say that children should be smacked if they have ignored repeated warnings to stop misbehaving, continually won't do what they're told to do when they're told to do it, or show a blatant lack of respect towards an adult.

    I'm not a mum and have no desire to be one either, but I have to say, smacking a child does not make them better people at all. Instead, children come away with the mentality that it's ok to be aggressive towards others when you are angry. I was smacked as a child, bullied and shouted at so many times, that the only effect it had on me was anger and then depression in my teens and twenties. The strange thing is, i was a quiet child and was never bad or disruptive, but was shouted at and smacked whenever i made a mistake, didnt undertand something or was inattentive. Hitting anyone, but especially a child, is not acceptable and anyone who thinks it is backwards!

I see it many times in my work, parents who's kids are running riot not doing anything about it, not because they don't want to, but because they are scared of the what everyone else will do, ie being judged etc and be on the wrong side of the law. Its the same with security guards, they tell me at my job the reason they don't go after the under 18 shoplifters or troublemakers is because the current law says if they try to remove a say an abusive and violent kid from a store they themselves could be charge with assaulting a minor, even though the guard has the legal power to use reasonable force, they could still be in trouble. This is part of the problem, the laws, immediately go in defence of the under 18, even if you are the victim and just trying to defend yourself.

    Has it not occurred to anyone that maybe the majority of parents in this country AREN'T good parents? Just because you don't beat your kids into the ground doesn't make you parent of the year if you're still hitting them on order to teach. Just because something is normalised as ok doesn't mean you as parents are good if you do it. You may be well-intentioned, but that's the most I would use.
    We're regularly told not to discipline our pets with hitting because they do not learn that way.
    So, if a dog or cat can't learn in what we think is simple cause and effect behaviour why on earth do we think children are different?
    The idea in hitting for discipline is that if you do something bad and get a negative consequence of pain. That you will associate that pain with the bad thing you did.
    But that's not how the brain works. When pain is inflicted on you, it doesn't work out the reasons for it. It goes straight to the area of the brain that handles fear and survival. Because you will think that you're in danger. There's no such thing as a loving smack. Your automatic system won't be like 'oh it's ok. It's a loving smack done by your parent.' It will go 'danger! Pain! Something hurting us! Get to safety!'
    In other words the brain goes straight to emotion and bypasses the logical reasons why the person hit you. A young child is still developing. So if you hit them enough that means you're activating the aggression, anger and fear responses in the brain a lot and they're more likely to be aggressive as a result because that part of the brain has been activated more times.
    I really don't like how Narinder talked over the other woman this whole time. Really disrespectful.

      You are not totally correct though, yes the idea is to associate pain with bad things, especially for something that can cause harm.
      Would you rather than having light slap on the hand or getting first degree burn because you play with boiling water/ fire? It getting a deep cutting wound because you play with a kitchen knife? It getting hot by a car because you play on a public road.

    • @JustAnotherPerson4U
      @JustAnotherPerson4U 26 дней назад +3

      ​@@netron66And there's the problem. How do you define a 'light slap'? If it doesn't make the child's hand go red? If it goes red but only a little? If they don't bawl their heads off? If it's only once?
      And you completely missed my point. Depending on how young the child is, they're absolutely not going to associate you slapping them with the dangerous thing they're about to do. It's just going to go to the pain receptor in the brain and COMPLETELY miss the point as to why they've been hit. They literally cannot learn from it. And even if they did, the emotions that can be triggers from that can be really negative and extra volatile from them on. Because our brains from a young age are still programmed for survival.
      Absolutely take them away and tell them in a loud voice why it's a bad thing to do xyz.
      Also, if they're really young. You're going to be supervising them outside and telling them not to do certain things.
      If they're a young child you gradually allow independence as soon as you're sure they understand about safety and danger risks.
      You're acting like the only way to educate your young child about dangerous situatuons is to hit them. Because light or not, you still struck them.
      When like I say, all that does nothing for the child and at that point is just a release for your worry and frustration.
      And not to mention the mountains of research that suggest that hitting your child leads to lowered IQ, Increased aggression and increased likelihood of bad mental health later in life.
      If I had a child. I'd rather not risk it. I'd rather drag them from that road and yell at them than add to issues like that.

      Abuse is partly about power dynamics and fear... also there is a age of legal responsibility..

    • @mariannehavisham8323
      @mariannehavisham8323 26 дней назад +2

      Because children are usually much smaller it is possible to restrain if necessary.. adults aren't defenceless against children the way children are against adults.. it's partly about vulnerability.. adults are nowhere near as vulnerable.. if a child is violent it's a sign of mental distress and parents must find out how they can best support their child.. it may be they are being abused, they are traumatised, they have mental health issues -problems with emotional regulation and impulse control, they may be neurodivergent and/or overwhelmed -there is help available for those things if parents seek it out which it's their responsibility to do that..
      They can model good communication to the child and teach the child how to manage and communicate their emotions so they are better able to cope and not have to resort to violence.. children often learn by copying behaviour.. if you teach your child the skills they need to cope they won't need to resort to that..
      Everything is a form of communication with kids including violence. It's communicating something they don't know how else to communicate
      I think abuse is the wrong word here and the word would be behavioural issues/anger issues/mental illness/neurodivergence/trauma because of the power dynamics
      Abuse has a lot to do with power and children don't really have any power, certainly not in the way that adults do..

My dad was beaten in school (when it was legal) he grew up to be an abuser with out of control anger issues.. now he has 3 adult children, none of whom are able to cope with the emotion of anger/none of us ever learnt how to express it in a healthy way because we were never shown how (cross generational trauma)

    I was never smacked, but my mum always threatened to smack...or she would threaten with the big, wooden spoon, lol! My dad would push my mum and me, and he once punched me in the head when I was a kid, because I annoyed him. His own dad used to punch him in the head when he was a kid. I personally think that smacking can be a useful tool in the parent's arsenal when it comes to making sure the child is on the right path. Obviously, excessive force is a no no...like the belt attacks that Joe Jackson gave to the Jackson kids are going way too far. But a little smack can sometimes be good and useful in disciplining. Some kids are too naughty and they need a smack to make them behave better. There are some people out there who want a zero-smack policy, but then you are creating a generation of unruly and spoilt kids if you have a zero-smack policy. It depends on the personality of the kid. Some kids are well behaved and do not need any smacks. Whereas there are some other kids who do need smacks, because otherwise they will run riot. Also, my parents are from a country in South Asia, and smacking is done a lot in the country where my parents were born, and it works!!!
