Search Results: abusive parents

How fortunate would you say you are entering into this world?
Taking into account your genetics (tall, fit, and good-looking, or short/mediocre, fat, and ugly), your parents and upbringing, the country you were born in, the opportunities you were given or not given, and so on. If you were just a shapeless human in the Beforelife ready to be born and you had to roll some five-sided dice to determine what kind of person you ended up being, how would you rate your luck?

Me? I'm a manlet in stature as you all know, ugly, had an abusive mother, and grew up dirt poor in the scuzziest part of West Philly. So I'm a 2 out of 10. Only not saying 1 because I've never been r*ped and wasn't born in a third-world sh*thole somewhere. Otherwise, I'd be a 1.

I feel like in this day and age, especially since the pandemic and all that bullcrap, parents are starting to become either abusive (in the form of "strict") or soft. Kids who have been physically hit or unsolicitedly got their stuff taken away by their parents, and those who had been forced the "anti-nuclear" (pro-Jezebel, pro-Sodom and Gorrah agenda) bullcrap equally are being set up for depression and failure. It really shows.

Do you considering spanking a child (hitting them anywhere but the face, as punishment) to be abuse?

I'm a teacher and had to do annual training again, including reporting child abuse. It is pretty standard, common sense stuff here in Korea (physical, emotional, psychological abuse, or neglect), but I imagine in America, "abuse" would be mis-gendering your child nowadays, because the West is raising a bunch of snowflakes.

I actually had an abusive mother, so I don't consider spanking to be abuse. I was moreso raised by my grandmother than my mother, and when I talked back, my Dutch-American grandma raised in the South, would actually use a tree branch to spank me with. Stung like a motherf*cker, but worked. I don't look at my grandma as being "abusive" for that, even though she "hit" me way more than my actual mother did.

A child KNOWS what's abuse and what's punishment. Abusive parents usually don't "love you" one minute, and hurt you the next. Their abuse is consistent and usually not just "physical abuse," but more so, emotional abuse and other forms, as well. If your mom and dad love you, but spanked you because you tried to steal your neighbor's car at age 12, then that's not abuse.

But what do you think? Considering today's Millennials, I imagine we're going to get a lot of "Dr. Phil moms" who think even raising your voice at a child is "abuse" and are going to have little future-felons by the time they're 15.
