We are telling YOU.

It's remarkable that you link a teacher hitting you to surviving Vietnam. Not sure you're as mentally together as you think, maybe it's trauma from Vietnam. Or getting hit as a kid.

more corporal punishment means less disrespectful kids.

Harrier is a product of a man and a woman who only met because the Vietnam War occurred.

Harrier's father was drafted and Harrier's mother met him at the Army base.

Harrier didn't survive the Vietnam War - he was born in 1976 - and only exists because his mother met a man who was a U.S. soldier drafted in 1968.

Nope. Can't touch my kid.

There is no need to spank kids, and definitely no need for a stranger to do it.

People romanticize "the good old days" when kids got spanked and became respectful....totally ignoring the fact that many did not turn out well at all. Many were beaten, many turned to alcohol and drugs or had parents who were wretched. And the fact that many kids today are spanked and beaten and, oh no, AREN'T respectful of the people who do it to them. I wonder why?

It's hard to talk to some people when they insist things happened one way and only one way and it's the only right way or...DOOOM

Do you have any evidence to back up those allegations that spanked kids turned to drugs and alcohol?
