    Ever hit them so hard with something that the item in question broke?

    Tbf, that bit is somewhat dependent on context. I agree, >90% of parents that do that are just shit. My personal experience was different - my dad though ahead and had a specific setup for paddling. Multiple warnings ahead of time, and used narrow-handled wooden spoons, so they’d break so he couldn’t put too much force into it

      yeah still fucked up tho.

      I mean, having specific implements you choose to hit your kid with. Consider that. Also consider the fact I literally wrote a paragraph detailing clear abuse…and your brain tried to excuse it. I’m not calling you an apologist, just…think about how your brain did that.

      And yes, I’m aware of “how it was back then” I’m genX. It’s still messed up.

        Way to ignore half of my comment

        I’m not calling you an apologist, just…think about how your brain did that.

        Go fuck yourself. The fact you’re willing to type that proves you’re an asshole, and I’m not even surprised you turned out to be like that
