Beating Children Saves Lives |
Children are wonderful, and they are a blessing from God, but let's
face it; children are stupid. Without the proper administration of
physical punishment, they will be under the impression that nothing
they do is bad. Beating children is not something that we should
particularly enjoy, but at the end of the day, a spirited beating is
the only way that we can get the message across. Playing liberal mind
games with kids will accomplish nothing.
At this point, it's worth mentioning that discipline does not
necessarily have to be applied on a "case-by-case" basis. In fact,
many experts believe that regularly-scheduled beatings can improve
children's behavior even more effectively. Parents can decide on a
designated "beating hour"; in my household, it is Thursday nights at
7:00 PM. Now, the common objection to this is "children should not be
beaten unless they have done something wrong, and regularly-scheduled
beatings violate this principle." I cannot swallow this argument, for
the following reasons:
1) Children don't just misbehave in front of you. Often, they will do
things that you know nothing about, and can know nothing about. For
example, if your child goes over to an unsaved friend's house and
watches MTV, you have no specific way of knowing about it. That
doesn't mean that the behavior should go unpunished, though; scheduled
beatings allow you to make sure that nothing slips through the cracks.
2) Regular beatings can help to extinguish thoughts about
disobedience. For example, your child may be harboring ideas about
going to the school library and checking out a Harry Potter book
behind your back. A strict act of discipline should shatter such
impudent thoughts into a million pieces and scatter them to the winds.
This leads directly into the third reason:
3) Punishment is not the only purpose of disciplining children! Strict
discipline also serves to remind your child that you are in charge,
and that there are consequences for untoward behavior, even if no such
behavior has occurred! Your child may be angelic for three straight
years, but without periodic guidance, there is an overwhelming chance
that he or she will slide at some point in time.
So now that we've established that beatings are an unfortunate but
necessary part of parenting, we need to establish some ground rules to
make sure that they do not get out of hand. Physical punishment, like
most things, can be taken to an extreme level. There is a line that we
dare not cross, and we need to make sure that when we dispense
punishment, we do so in a responsible manner.
1) Beatings should always take place in the immediate vicinity of a
telephone, should medical assistance be necessary. A cellular phone is
an acceptable substitute.
2) Care should be taken to avoid breaking limbs whenever possible.
3) Skin should not be broken, but in cases where it is, a generous
supply of Band-Aids (TM) and hydrogen peroxide should be on hand.
4) Discipline activities that will likely result in visible bruising
should be done on "discreet" areas of the body that will be covered by
clothing.
I don't like this any more than you do. But I look at today's
generation of children, and I am saddened. The "modern" liberal
thinking has resulted in a group of children that are hateful and
impudent; these are kids who would just as soon shoot you dead than
hold the door open for you. The truth is obvious; children should be
beaten, and they should be beaten often. They should not be beaten
savagely or maliciously, and (as I have said) we should take no undue
pleasure in performing this duty. But the death toll that has resulted
from leftist childraising techniques is quickly becoming incalculable,
and it's time that we, as parents, realize that "political
correctness" does not imply moral or logical correctness.

Go ahead and beat your kids, but remember, they're the ones who are
going to pick your nursing home. I hope you like lonliness, and
unsavory conditions.

No, they're ignorant. Children are usually pretty smart.
Without the proper administration of
physical punishment, they will be under the impression that nothing
they do is bad.
"Without execution they'll think that they can get away with murder."
Idiot.

And there's some ocean front property in Arizona I would like to sell
you. Hopefully your entire post is meant as harmless rhetoric and you
have no children nor will you ever.

On 10 Feb 2005 10:15:10 -0800, after pondering deep
thoughts, (Maaxx) spake thusly:

Personally, I find that regular use of a medium amount
of lighter fluid on top of the head while they're
sleeping and a match works wonders. And a hat covers
the whole thing. Winter hat, baseball cap in the
summer, etc.. Had to do it twice. Twice! Can you
imagine that?! Dumb kid! :)

Doesn't it get damp under your bridge ?
