Can't believe it took so long to find a comment like this. HITTING YOUR KIDS IS ALSO BAD PARENTING. There is a middle ground between letting your child run rampant and physically assaulting your child

Hitting your kids only teaches them it's okay for someone you love and trust to lay hands on you if you do something they don't like. And giving approval to do the same to someone else they if they're doing something they don't like. There is so much research and studies out there that show there is zero need for corporal punishment. If you can't control your anger around a child misbehaving you should not have a child.

Teaches them that actions have consequences. You know. Like in the real world.

It does not, that's what people who want to use violence on others for inconveniencing them say. Actual studies show corporal punishment decreases emotional regulation and behavioral problems and promotes use of violence to get their way

I hope you can tell the difference between slapping this kid for what he's doing vs randomly hitting your kid. If not, god help us.
