Reply #17: It's just mean and in some way this method

has to give them some sick satisfaction. It probably thrills them and fills a sadistic part of their personal character. You don't beat your kids on some schedule to break their will. That's torture and child abuse. Every child near them should be taken away by CPS.

I also think its the lazy method to use. Anybody can smack a kid and call themselves a parent. It takes a lot of patience, time, and love to really raise a child.

They are raising kids who may emulate them and carry on this sick practice. They also are probably raising some kids who are going to have very serious mental problems. There will be a few who will have sociopathic characteristics, and end up doing gawd knows what.
