      I was spanked as a child and am not okay, but to be fair, the childhood friends I keep up with were not spanked as children and also are not okay. Clearly we are in need of a third option.

        Just a little spanking, as a treat?

        Whoops now I’m a dominatrix. How does this keep happening?

      I think the problem isn’t that spanking is bad, I think the problem is that some parents just skip every step that leads to that being the only remaining alternative. The problem is that learning those strategies is not easy, parents don’t educate themselves on proper parenting.

      Yes, be careful it’s a trap. Unless you’re looking for that

    Better than being an unsuccessful business man doing that stuff

  • I’m fine. Sure I sometimes wake up in the middle of the night terrified my dad’s just gonna come through the door and beat me for no reason, but other than that I’m perfectly normal.
