So parents that grow up in other cultures teach their kids different things?
Who knew... So culturally if you grow up in a traditional Caribbean home in the UK smacking is fine or no?

So when you smack a child, is the aim to hurt them or not?

Of course it not to hurt them, it to stop them doing what they are doing and showing them you mean it

Of course you don't, but that doesn't mean you can't have an opinion. You tried to suppress my opinion by basically saying I couldn't have a say if I don't have kids.

You can't understand what it's like to be LGBT but nobody has ever tried to suppress your right to an opinion on it.

That's hardly anything to complain about when you have both just attempted to ostracise somebody else for participating in a discussion that may not directly concern them. In fact if you're so eager to put somebody else down for it, then you shouldn't be surprised to receive the same treatment.

IMO the main reason todays kids are out of control is down to parents who put themselves before their children, they have no home security, Mothers out on the lash all weekend while they are dumped here, there and everywhere ,I see Mothers pick their kids up from school while busy on their phones telling the world on Facebook what they are doing ......... CarlyLuvsHerKidsSmith "On school run " Put your phone down, hold your childs hand and ask them what they've done at school

They get little Johnny home ,let him go on his Xbox until his ready meal is cooked ,then back off upstairs he goes, hardly had a chance to talk to his Mother as she was playing Candy Crush or telling her mates how her spray tan turned out while he was eating his tea

Children need to be made to feel special to their parents, not just a little someone they get extra benefits for to fund their new iPhone

We will agree to disagree, I believe in raising children to respect others and be decent human beings who can be taken anywhere and knowing they will behave

I'd like to add Dezzy wasn't the only one who doesn't have kids but commented, difference is the others were on the "right" side

I just think people are too weak-willed generally to set up these complicated af Supernanny hierarchical structures where you have different timed punishments, and sitting on a stair... I just don't think it does anything that "punishing" to a child. And how easy is it to cave and give back a kid's Xbox or phone because they won't stop throwing tantrums about it being taken off of them?

All this said, I would never be comfortable with it taking place in schools.
