As far as the original thread topic, there's a fantastic book about this topic: The Coddling of the American Mind by Jonathon Haidt, Social Psychologist. He teaches what set of falsehoods are promulgated in order to make people so soft. The falsehoods create this sensitivity. One example would be: what doesn't kill me makes me weaker.

Started listening to Gad Saad too, both are professors, and I have to say: it's much worse than I thought in universities(and really everywhere). Everyone talks about this issue, but I don't think people realize how dangerous many of these ideas are to culture/science/etc.

For a real-life example of how these stupid ideas create even dumber real-life consequences, here's a video of Gad Saad talking about real things written at the museum of African American History

Laying hands on kids and belittling them is pathetic.  It only makes things worse.

If someone has crazy kids they should get help for that rather than just decide to retaliate against their kid with abuse.

it is funny to me that empathy and tender loving care can be seen as weakness rather than strength. it takes way more guts to admit you're wrong than to lie to yourself that you're right. IME this is commonly what is referred to as toughness and being a man- refusing to back down at any cost, so that when the other guy gets tired of the shitty argument you get a nice ego boost

patience and empathy and sensitivity are strength to me. those are what allow our species to grow collectively and what makes our communities better and more supportive. people who are against those kind of traits to me are living as if they're the only people in the world, not realizing just how much they once benefited from somebody practicing those traits with them as a kid. they want to have their cake and eat it too.

Are you conflating spanking with actual child abuse? Because that level of poor thinking is pathetic.

My post wasnt much to do about spanking as it had to do with parents having this attitude

Balance, my brother.




there is a spectrum to everything of course, but personally I look at spanking as unnecessary and often abusive behavior.  Spanking has been proven to not be healthy for children's behavior. 

Kids can be awful but slapping their asses isnt gonna help

I would love to hear some proof on something like this. This does not seem like something you could ever prove... Are you going to cite the same type of associations in data that people use to prove cannabis causes mental illness?

Much like drugs in general, there may be a majority of people who misuse such a thing. That does not necessarily make the thing bad in and of itself. Misuse of something does not necessarily make its appropriate use without merit.

Evolution has developed pain as the best thing to inhibit behavior that should not be repeated. Why should we not leverage what is clearly a good means to stop behavior from being repeated?

Are you conflating spanking with actual child abuse? Because that level of poor thinking is pathetic.



As a parent of three emotionally healthy teenagers I definitely agree that spanking can have a place in childhood before a certain age. When stern talking, coaxing, kindness and bribing has clean run out of doing anything spanking works. The rules are only there to protect children anyway, childhood rules are not some crazy dictatorial regime.

I remember when my kids grew out of spanking, the conversation always goes "It doesn't even hurt when you smack me!" to which I reply "It's not supposed to hurt, but words aren't working but I need to get through to you..." And that is the end of that. Finally they understand words mean so much more. That change in psyche happens about 9 years old and being a parent suddenly takes leaps and bounds into being so much easier.

I also mock idiots when they appear in our lives. Fools, crybabies, whiners, pigs, muppets, all of the morons of society. Yet I never mock my children, I only point out that they don't want to be like those other idiots who behave like that because it will make their lives hard.

I'm kind and honest, I tell them I love them and hug them every day, but I will not tolerate fuckery. They can leave that for people who were brought up by fuckheads, people who blame their shit on other people, people who sacrifice their lives in pursuit of money, people who can't breathe without being offended, people who get triggered, people who believe politics religion, people who wear minority labels as a weapon to fuck over others, etc, etc...

It may seem like I hate everyone but this is not so. The vast majority of people are super cool, but there's an idiot chorus online and all around that drowns out the silent majority. Kids need to learn to protect themselves from these poisonous ideas from a young age, so even if the idiotic PC is taking over all around them they know it is stupid fuckery rather than being misled by the lie.

It's because people have become too accustomed to communicating through text based services with no verbal communication to help their point. Most of communicating is actually through NONVERBAL cues and nuances. Something like 75% of communication is nonverbal. Also, you can't tell the tone through text based communication like whether the person is being serious, sarcastic, joking, angry, happy, etc. Mood and emotion can't be conveyed through text based communication so everyone interprets everything incorrectly.
