Do you think this dad went too far punishing his son for disrespecting his teacher?

[Wrath of Foamy]

I'm all for learning how to fight and getting some aggression out, but I don't think that it should be used as a form of punishment.

He's also going for the head way too hard.

 

[Cole train]

I would have been buried in the yard for that

Praise in public, discipline in private I was always told.

Recording and posting it is a big red flag....

Scientifically corporeal punishment isn't known to be effective. That's because of a few things.

The first one is that the punishment isn't related to the offense. By that I mean that the child doesn't learn the consequences of their actions. Let's say your kid breaks another kid's toy. A good form of discipline would be to get your kid to reflect on how the other kid must of felt, send them to apologize to the other kid and help them fix the toy. That way your kid gets a deeper understanding of what their mistake was and how to make amends for it. Whopping their ass doesn't make them learn anything, it just makes them resent the parent and avoid them in the future. Meaning the next time they make a mistake they'll be sure to never tell you.

Positive punishment (adding something unpleasant to reduce the frequency of a behaviour) - which is what corporeal punishment is - is also known to be the least effective form of conditioning. Something like negative punishment (removing something pleasant to reduce the frequency of a behaviour) is much more effective. For example putting a child in time out (removing the pleasant stimulus of interacting with others) works very well.

A lot of people mistakenly think that people who are in opposition to corporeal punishment are all bleeding hearts. Nope. It's just not effective. There's no logical argument for it.

A bit on the harsh side in my opinion. He was giving the youngster some solid shots to the head.

 

[Fedorgasm]

I don't necessarily agree with giving the kid CTE, but I am extremely glad to see a father that cares enough to discipline his son.

Look, fathers aren't going to be perfect, and they don't need to be. If they care enough to give you tough love then they are doing their job.

 

[ColemanwastheGOAT]

All he has learned is that might makes right.

Then he's learned the most valuable lesson one can learn.

 

[Gutter Chris]

I don't know

The fact that he filmed it doesn't seem great and the fact he's popping hid kid in the head kinda hard is the thing I have the biggest issue with. I also don't know what exactly the kid did. Might be the kid deserves the full on Mike Tyson treatment.

But I did grow up in the hood and I've seen first hand what not having a dad around does to young boys and having a dad you know you are going to have to answer to seems to make a lot of difference in this world. Perhaps getting boxed up might make this kid not act like a little shithead and think about what he's doing before he does it next time.

 

[Berserker13]

What happens when hits him and he falls on the barrier?

 

[method115]

It's good to see he cares but giving your child CTE isn't worth it.

Yeah, scrambling your kid's brains is seriously harmful.

I got whooped as a kid but never to the head. All belt whippings to the ass and legs. Swinging for the face/head ramps up the aggression too much, IMO. It makes it far too personal.

 

[IIIIIIII]

i just think that father created another future bully. teaching his son that being physical is the best form of parenthood and instilling lessons.

 

[whocares]

Probably just repeating the cycle. Some people understand the hierarchy of discipline, more don't. Positive is, at least he's trying. Negative is, this ain't how it's done.

There's a few instances where a true ass whooping with face punches is warranted.

Like if your son is the same size or bigger than you and he tries to hit his mom. I've heard a few out of control teens that do that.

I love my son but if he hit my wife I'd be throwing uppercuts.

But talking back to a teacher? Maybe don't target the head for that.

 

[ssBaldy]

A lot of todays adults never got a beating when they were kids and it shows.
The video would not load for me so no idea how bad he beat him. But sometimes a beating is needed.

I agree with this but I must say, so many parents don't discipline their kids at all that I kind of appreciate him setting an example.

It's almost like the bar has been lowered so far that I'm just happy to see anyone holding their kid accountable, even if his methods aren't great.

When ever someone is advocating for corporal punishment I like to let them know that every single woman who I’ve had rough/kinky/impact play secks with was spanked as a child.

Careful out there shermanos

This is bullshit. Time outs dont work better than a spanking. The part about the child being more likely to hide mistakes and failures is true though.

Nope. That’s how stupid people think. Or don’t think rather.
