beat·ing
ˈbēdiNG/
noun
- 1.
a punishment or assault in which the victim is hit repeatedly.
"if he got dirt on his clothes, he'd get a beating"
How the fuck is whacking a kid with a piece of wood not a beating? It's literally the definition of the word. It's also been scientifically shown that spanking children isn't an effective form of punishment and can fuck them up.
So if you want to be an ignorant, aggressive, hypocrite Christian, then go ahead and "paddle" your kids.
If you want to live in the 21st century, learn to handle a child like an adult without striking them.
If you think one up to three swats = a beating then maybe you needed a few . . .
I don't need your blessing or permission to discipline my kids however my wife and I deem necessary. Thankfully they are both well rounded young ladies and have more common sense than most of the nose pickers who post on here. So thanks for your advice, but my kids are just fine.
