ight bro keep beating your nieces

WHOLE different story bruh

Because all of our opinions are informed by how we were raised, crazy how it works

I'm with you, I don't see how you can read the Bible front to back and think this is appropriate guidance. But many are literalists

Im not gonna criticize Lauryn though thats just the tradition and how she was brought up

With some kids it works out, with some it traumatizes them and f***s up their future mental health. Dont beat ur kids guys.

There are multiple scientific studies that show it doesn’t work and could be traumatic

Wow, what a great f***ing post. Even as an adult I’m still quiet whenever I get up in the middle of the night even though I live on my own out of fear over what would happen when I was caught as a kid.

Bruh, I definitely did not love getting beat lmfao it is only through hindsight that I can look back and I’m able to appreciate it for what it was because to this day there are a lot of knuckle headed s*** that I’ve managed to avoid that is a direct result of me getting physically disciplined as a child. Not that I’m a saint or something and Nobody here is saying this s*** is full proof but I’m not going to criminalize the behavior simply because privileged kids wanna start throwing the word trauma around

U see how quick he is to jump to insults too lmao. Been calling people dumbasses all thread long; boy quick to resort to violence

I was because I had a really bad bout of depression last winter and after talking with my now gf about it I built up the courage to actually seek some help. I was on antidepressants and anxiety medication for a bit and was doing counseling but ultimately stopped both cause of COVID. The intent is to resume that since it’s through my university but I honestly have no clue how available it’ll be. I’m sure the demand for it is also going to be higher as well.

Idk I have a lot of issues that I think contributes to a lot of my mental health, and the childhood trauma stuff is part of it. I never got physically abused to a high degree but it was more like mental abuse and s*** and a bunch of other things that have ultimately destroyed a lot of my self confidence. I’ve taken some steps like going to the gym and s*** but it isn’t fully solved.

I agree though with a lot of your post and I know I should resolve it but it’s a really complex issue due to the dynamics of it all. I don’t wanna like derail the thread a ton though

And that's why I don't say s*** online with my face present that would jeopardize job opportunities...it's almost like I know how to properly conduct myself

nobody on this side of the fence is mad tho, its you guys getting mad at us for disciplining our children different to how you see fit.

I don’t touch my nieces, but I’ve seen the way they get even after different methods were tried multiple times and I don’t tell my sister “no they don’t need a whooping that’s just not okay”

I have 0 kids

what niggas are getting cancelled on ktt now lmao

Lmfaooo

Y’all done sucking each other off?

lotta people seem to be getting mad at the sheer thought that the disciplinary choice could be bad when there is research backing up that thought

my family is jamaican.. so ofcourse im gonna have some ways etched into me. my grandma hit me with the belt couple times i was acting up, im pretty sure i put the church Glass through at one point. Still got all the Love for her in the world.

just banter bro lol he brought up some s*** off topic so did i

Not once have I invalidated or disproved other people's experiences...yet I've had that done to me all throughout this thread for stating that there are very clear differences between physical child rearing and child abuse.

My first time quoting him. Still exposing urself btw

Y’all so hateful

I’ll make sure they are
