Search Results: age to have children

Few weeks ago I left the GOP because of the toxicity involved in that party; their mentality is much on par with hardcore fans of certain automobiles. Especially those who aggressively support and agree with Andrew Tate and Donald Trump.

Because of the way my stepmother treated my father, my mother and myself; and because of the way my stepfather usually treats his underage son, I left the GOP together. It really wasn't for political reasons.

In some cases I am more conservative than the typical "conservative" Republican (Trump, DeSantis); nowadays those folks are wannabe-libertarians. I do believe IQ and drug tests should be required in order to have children; the minimum and maximum age limits in my opinion should be between 18-21 and between 30-40 (depending on the biological gender, cultural background, and wealth status of that person); this will rid of most of all the stupidity and sheeple-mindedness reproduced in the western world.

I have started to respect conservatism as an ideology (though not the Republican Party) since having my first true conservative job coach that I can reveal my true emotions to, a Black male one at that who cannot stand modern western feminism. Hell, even my mixed Asian-White job coach has started to agree with my views (but not as obvious).

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.
