There are many, many, MANY ways to raise your children that couldn’t be mistaken for incorrect, but if you’re breaking the skin of your YOUNG child by beating them with a switch, you’d be pretty fucking garbage to the core to consider that “correct”

agree
im sure he whooped his kid not knowing he had actually whips on skin..where im from nothing is wrong with whooping your kids,but kissing your dad in the mouth at the age you should be kissing girls and women is. guess its just a culture difference.

...... DONT WHIP YOUR KID WITH A STICK HARD ENOUGH TO BREAK THE SKIN AND HE WONT HAVE WHIPS ON HIM. So what you’re saying is, you can whip your kid all you want just don’t leave an ugly mark so you can get caught...
And the pictures when he’s kissing his kid, the boy was like 4...
His son was most def older than 4. Maybe we are talking about a different pic. I seen a vid of brady kissing his son and then brady also kissed his dad..like i said different cultures. Kids get their ass whipped where im from then punched in the chest when they get a lil older. no right nor wrong way to raise kid though man regardless of what the media thinks..i forgot, the same people that doesnt like Ap cause he beat his child are the same ones who think Kap isnt in the lg cause he isnt a good enough qb and really thought mallet was better. All good man.. Ravens nation!! 28-13 ravnes vs panthers

Just using context here, based on the kaepernick comments and repeated use of “cultural differences”, are you saying this is a race thing?

Hell naw..
im telling you right now there is everything wrong with whooping your kids and nothing wrong with kissing your dad on the mouth - the world has moved on from those archaic times
men showing affection for their loved ones is not wrong
'whooping' your children is always wrong
its a culture difference in the sense that culture has moved on from that and it is absolutely not acceptable anymore
also flex is right (not that it should matter) but the kid in the picture was 4 years old

Ok well that’s cleared up, but this “culture” that you defend, where it’s ok to make your 4 year old child bleed by means of a weapon, is a barbaric and disgusting culture and it’s absolutely a wrong way to raise your child. I won’t be kissing my son on the mouth when he’s Tom Brady’s sons age, that’s for sure, but if I had to choose between that and making my son bleed with a stick, im choosing the one that doesn’t cause pain and fear and all kinds of twisted emotions towards your parent.
Children are supposed to respect their parents, not fear the shit out of them. Children are supposed to fear consequence to learn right from wrong, not fear the ones they love most. When you whip your child with a stick until they bleed you’re replacing that love they have for you with fear and anguish. AP is supposed to be his parent not his fucking correctional officer. That shit results in broken adolescents with mixed feelings towards their parents. This isn’t a spank on the ass, it’s WHIPPING UNTIL SKIN BREAKS WITH A SWITCH. It is a world of difference and if that’s your understanding of “acceptable” then you, yourself, are not acceptable.
i seen a vid, never seen the pic.. thats a big ass four yr old. You cant tell me there something wrong with whooping your child. I was whooped as a child, surrounded by violence and the whole nine... yet im still considered by many the most respectable, honest and trustworthy people they jave ever met.. i understand what youre saying but getting whooped affects people differently but at the end of the day ive never in my life seen anyone traumatized nor mentally fucked up from getting a beaten.
like i said ive been whooped and everyone i know have been whooped. Getting a whooping does not give you mix feelings about you parents, thats bs.

Getting whooped and bleeding from a fucking stick at 4 years old are 2 different things...
this is what he doesn't understand.
Lol like i said.. been there done that.
Been there done that. Affects people differently.
just because it happened to you doesnt make it right
and i dont believe for a second that youve never seen anyone traumatized or mentally fucked up from getting a beating especially if it happened all around you growing up
i just dont see how you can think that hitting a child doesnt leave a lasting impact on their psyche - at the very least you are changing the way they see the world and are teaching a child that it is inherently ok to communicate displeasure through violence rather than communicating verbally or by other means - at a minimum you are changing that - at the worst you are building an environment in which children fear their parents or you build lasting trauma
it's also not an effective tool for teaching good behaviour - all it does is force obedient behaviour in the presence of a parent but makes those behaviours more attractive in the absence of a parent (the forbidden fruit tastes sweetest) and basically you stunt their internal growing of self-discipline and a conscience and replace it with fear as the only controlling factor in behaviour
it also teaches them that might makes right - you are right as a parent simply because you are bigger and stronger and not because you are actually right - it teaches them that they can win an argument simply because they are bigger
it sets up children to tolerate abuse as a form of "love" and can lead them into tolerating and even yearning for physically abusive relationships because of the association of pain and control with "loving behaviour" ('i hit you because i love you')
there are many things the generations have done before us that were ok but now absolutely arent - there's a reason why smacking children is illegal in many countries including the UK
