So what exactly is your position on this then? You're all over the place.

And yeah, abusing your kids is horrible shit. What the fuck at some of the downplaying and hand waving in this thread.

I don't think parents should beat their children ever, but you can't control every parent out there so these things happen, and yes they are horrible. But I can tell you from experience, it can only make you stronger and wiser to the faults of the individual ignorantly taking their anger out on you.

And my initial point was how god damn weak some people act in just watching this kind of abuse takes place. There are far worse things in this world. Man up.

So why not make beating children a law so it makes them stronger and wiser?

The arguments in this thread are hilariously awful.

So I'm guessing they did something right?

The connection between getting beaten and turning out as an okay adult here is not well established. "My pop beat me but I turned out okay. Therefore beating kids is something society should be okay with" is poor reasoning.

You could have gathered as much from the first few pages of the thread, very little of which was an overreaction.

Apparently not, since it seems like everyone who's been beaten in childhood is defending the aggressor.

Saw this on Reddit this morning, thread gathered 5.5k+ views in the six hours I was asleep for.

Disgusting conduct by a 'family judge'.

Spanking =/= Beating though.

At most people would use an object, but parents know not to inflict injury.

You idiot. I said I don't agree with or condone the behavior, but it happens and people learn from it. It's called surviving and last time I checked, people have been able to flourish in the face of adversity.

Judge Adams told us, "It happened years ago.. I apologized."

When asked if he thought the conduct in the video was excessive, Judge Adams said, "It's not as bad as it looks on tape."

Okay, someone get him to explain what the fuck that even means. :lol

Typical behavior from an abuser, trying to marginalize what happened.

And it shouldn't be condoned just because some people learn from it. And it's debatable if what they learn justifies the beating.

Either way this shouldn't happen, at all, and any defense of it is wrong is all I'm saying.

Maybe its because of all the time my grandma wailed down on me when I was younger but I really don't feel anything from watching that, and I absolutely love my grandma and certainly deserved a lot of those beatings.

That would be appropriate to tell someone who you're consoling or who is suffering from abuse, but doesn't really make sense in any other context, what could your point possibly be if you aren't trying to defend the abuser?

And all the abusive talk from her dad and the promises to beat her even more if she didn't submit to his will. The guy was on a power trip. She clearly said stop it several times.

I don't think kids need physical punishment to turn out okay but some kids need way more discipline. The video looked excessive especially for the "crime" but overall I'm not against spanking. I do think it was rough having both parents against her. My parents were usually good cop bad cop with me so there was always someone I could talk to. And thankfully, towards night my parents always came to me and we talked it through (partly because they felt bad).

You know, I use to get some beatings when I was a kid, but not anything to bad. Even so, what made me sick the most in that video was not the physical beating, but the verbal assault she was getting from her father. That was FUCKED up. How can you say shit like that to your kid??? It's one thing to say "I'm disappointed and expect much better from you." It's another thing to call them a piece of shit.

Bullshit, because it's not even just about the whippings he dished out. It's also about his threatening words. At the end, he warns her that if she even makes one misstep she's getting it worse. He wanted to beat her into submission. Regardless of your views on spankings, forcing your child to walk on eggshells like that is completely fucked up.

Yeah, that's worse than the beating imo.

We should do like the Spartans did in 300 and leave kids in the wild to fend for themselves. It will only make them stronger and wiser.

I've already said that I think the yelling and cursing was the worst part of the video. Definitely makes it all seem much worse than it really is.

Also mother was helping her daughter, took the belt from the dad and wanted to slow the hurt.

The mother would be helping the daughter if she called the cops or defended her.

But she was likely 'put in her place' by this fucker just like the daughter. I blame her too the mother shouldn't get off on this shit.

Like most mums who have abusive dads, they can't directly help their kids so they do their best to get in the way and in this case it was her taking the belt away and doing the whoop ass her self but more constrained.

That's helping the father beat her kid.

Even if it's hidden under the guise of defense, she's still beating her and agreeing with the father. Equally bullshit. She could help if she wasn't a coward (or cared for her child enough).

I wouldn't jump to the conclusion of her being a coward. It wouldn't surprise me at all if her husabd had a record of directing violence at her as well.

Once again GAF OT is arguing about their ideologies instead of the issue here. The thread is not about whether "spanking" is right or wrong, or a successful or unsuccessful method of discipline.

It's about a girl clearly being abused by her father (hell and mother). He could be hitting her with a feather and I would still call this abuse, both physical and verbal. What he did was out of rage and anger, not for discipline.

What does age matter, and when would there be a reason for hitting a child?

That may be part of the the thread but there are a good number of people here who see little wrong with the specific actions in the video.

i wonder if this was a husband and wife situation we would see the same handwaving. but i guess that's one of the joys of parenting, hitting kids with belts across the body.
I would love to see this alternate reality thread. Although, I think many people would still feel that he was justified for beating his wife. They just wouldn't say anything because they'd be scared of ban hammer.

I would never touch a woman unless she was 16, disabled, and under my care. Then, I'd beat the shit out of her.

Oh, there is a crossover of that right here:

This is basically my policy.
Yeah, that's the exact reaction you get when a parent beats their child in public. It's not awkward at all.

True that she may have been beaten as well but if she couldn't step up to help her child I'd say she's a coward. She could've taken the brunt of the force for her and then gone to the police on her own time.

No, it's more appropriate because it's just someone teaching a youngin' how to behave because of his mistake, and with simply just spanking without causing injury.

But hey, you can always take away context whenever you want to disprove something. That always works in GAF.
