Discipline does not = whooping

WTH is whooping any way?

I was kind of hoping this might be about a certain cough diagnosis. Goodness knows we've had our fill of spanking threads.

BTW, my neighbors daughter was diagnosed with whooping cough just today. It seems the vaccine is not offering lifetime immunity anymore.

Whooping is what, exactly? Spanking? Whipping?

Spanking!! I have run across the term whooping a time or two some say whipping others say whooping. I am quite sure you understood the term as well the context.

No, I don't--that's why I asked. My parents never used that word, and whooping is literally the word whipping. Spanking is not whipping. Some people whip their kids, hence my question.

Thank you for clarifying.

To the OP, no, I wouldn't spank my kid in public. I don't see a need to do that in front of others.

As someone who uses spanking along with other forms of training and discipline, I don't think it is the level of shocking behavior that determines if it is a spankable offense or not. I would say some actions (like that in the OP and the video) are crying out for a more creative response. If a parent constantly falls back on spanking as their biggest and best consequence for the worst possible behaviors (or for all behaviors) It is easy for a child to avoid learning the lesson by pure stubbornness, because of hurts, or just by being crafty. I used to run out of the house when my dad went for his belt. The longer I stayed gone the more he was being punished, not me. By the time I was 11 he was out of tools to deal with me. Intimidation only lasts so long.

THAT'S RIGHT! WHIP THAT ASS !!!! Make sure you do it proper though. None of that bare hand stuff. Real parents use whips,2x4's,belts,and boards with nails. Also how do you feel about putting your child in the iron maiden for a few hours to whip them into shape?


















yeah this was sarcastic it you couldn't tell
