When the “should you spank your kids?” discourse is revving up and everyone starts playing Armchair Psychologist for 15 hours.

anyone else remember that fucking textbook example of circular logic that always started that discourse

“’i was spanked as a child and i turned out alright’ if you think its ok to spank kids you didnt turn out alright”

hellsite i tell you

yeah obviously if you grew up thinking child abuse is good you aren’t qualified to speak on the matter i don’t see how that is even a matter of discussion

LIKE CLOCKWORK

ranma-official

you are unironically defending child abuse on the Internet where evidence that child abuse is bad is in fact readily available. don’t “lmao hellsite :D :D” that shit. own up.

this isn’t a debate - one side has the scientific consensus on board, another side has the “i got abused therefore abuse is good” chucklefucks on its side, which is a thing called “cycle of abuse”.

wheel-skellington

first and foremost you essentially said “anyone with first hand experience shouldnt give their opinion” (though im sure that doesnt include the ones that agree with you)

stop trivializing abuse by categorizing minor punishment as abuse, its insulting to people who were actually abused (although, judging by the previous point its obvious you dont care what they think)
