So you have managed to turn a discussion on a smacking ban into comparing those parents that may be against it to nazis. I think you need therapy. It’s a good job you haven’t got kids really, they would probably want to belt you.
Christ that carryfast is a definite candidate for someone needing a smack.

As it’s obvious that those parents ‘who are against it’ are all about hitting people for so called ‘insobordination’ and giving 2 year olds ‘a damned good hiding’ it didn’t need me to say anything in favour of a ban because the knuckle dragging zb’s have made a better argument for it than anything I’ve said could have done.

Let me guess that’s probably only in the case of thinking that you won’t get one back.Although it’s no surprise that just like those who think it’s ok to hit kids for ‘insobordination’ and give two year olds a damned good hiding,you obviously think that the laws regarding assault are something which can be ignored on a selective basis.

Read back anything I’ve put in this thread, I don’t believe I’ve said I’m in favour or against smacking, I put it down to bad parenting. You’ve been battering on about people happy to give 2 year olds a good hiding based on 1 reply, count how many times you’ve put it in. You latch onto a couple of phrases and regurgitate them ad nauseum like some sort of mantra. you really are the worst kind of troll found on these forums.
On this subject you have no idea what you are talking about.

For someone who doesn’t seem to care either way you seem to have spent a lot of time just arguing with my point of view while saying nothing against the OP’s arguments.Assuming that you don’t believe in the idea of giving 2 year olds ‘a good hiding’ or hitting people for so called ‘insubordination’ then why was it that you seem to have chosen to say absolutely nothing against those two documented viewpoints here while just concentrating on continuously having a go at my ( justifiable and accurate ) comments specifically.Who’s calling who a zb troll now. 
Your comments are neither justifiable or accurate, some things never change. You cannot justify trying to tell patients how to discipline their children when you don’t have any yourself. As I said you have no idea what you are going on about. The poster you keep banging on about giving the 2 year old a good thrashing is like you, childless. He did say that’s what he “felt” like doing, trust me when I say that’s not an uncommon feeling amongst parents when they are being unruly. As for me, I wouldn’t dream of telling parents how to deal with their kids, it’s none of my affair.
Your idea that kids should be free to find their own barriers is both ridiculous and deluded, they are children, you are the adult, it’s up to you to teach them, that’s the job. The trouble is it doesn’t come with a manual, no test, nothing in fact. So where do you learn parenting skills? Where do your barriers come from? It comes from your parents.
You are not a parent therefore your “opinions” are irrelevant to me.

According to you you have no particular view on the subject and the fact is you obviously chose not to take issue with either of the comments made here,regarding corporal punishment being justified in schools,to deal with ‘insubordination’ nor the comments related to giving a two year old ‘a damned good hiding’ for bawling and tantrums.Assuming that either of those examples took place these days I’d suggest that the law ( rightly ) wouldn’t give a zb about wether a prosecution witness had any kids of their own or not in the case of bringing charges of assault against the type of zb’s who I’m referring to.Nor in the case of care workers with powers to remove children from such risks.As I’ve said the reasons for those laws are based on my type of accurate and justified comments given here.Unlike yours and the OP’s.After all that you’ve got the nerve to say that I don’t know what I’m going on about.
My view is that I don’t think it’s my place to tell other parents how to bring up their children, I would leave that to the likes people without kids that think they know better, ring any bells. I would choose that over your let them find their own boundaries scenario, left to their own devices until they do something so bad you would lock them up for life, or if it’s very bad then it’s ok to put them to death, how very responsible of you. Parents don’t have that choice but you will never know that. Proving,as I’ve said, you don’t know what you are talking about.
Do you know you have repeated that phrase about the 2 year old 9 times now? Its getting tired. I’m not interested in your what if scenarios, I prefer to live in the real world.

Which part of hitting kids from the age of 2,won’t have the slightest effect in stopping the minority who need locking up for life don’t you understand.I prefer to live in the real world too and unlike earlier years things are more civilised in that regard in that what was once considered as acceptable would now ( rightly ) result in charges of assault.The fact that there are still people out there with views which support the OP’s outdated ideas shows that those laws aren’t ( yet ) tough enough.
There are plenty people out there that support the OPs view, they are the vast majority. We call them parents.
