williemillersmoustache Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 This thread is great viewing, honest to god pearl clutching condescension and righteous indignation at being called out for defending the indefensible with a smattering of the glorious wtf(?) at glimpses into the troubled lives of the p&b literatti. Enjoyable Friday fayre. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I regularly teach classes of 30+ pupils in which 15 or more could test the patience of Mother Theresa herself (at the times she wasn't being an old boot, that is). The thought of hitting them never comes into my head, and nor would it if I was allowed to. And those aren't my own kids. I've said this before on here, but when my oldest was younger I accidentally trapped her finger in a door. The look she gave me - fear, pain, misery - will stay with me until the day I die. And within 5 minutes she was playing away like nothing happened. The thought of giving my kids that look of fear, pain and misery deliberately is absolutely barbaric. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think smacking a child means causing the same amount of pain as trapping their finger in a door, then yes, you definitely shouldn't do it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, but I bet she never put her finger in a door again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kids carrying on in a class doesn't remotely equate to having a nightmare child 24/7. It's easy for people to take the moral high ground in hypotheticals, I've been through it, I know I can handle it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Just out of interest, to those that do smack their weans, what age do you stop? 5? 10? 15? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Pretty sure that 'I don't skelp kids around' really isn't a statement that takes 'the moral high ground', 'high horse', or whatever hackneyed phrase you'd like to use, seeing as it is 2017. It'd be a strange and rather disturbing addition to a personal statement, that's for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's some very colourful language getting thrown around to justify outrage and name calling.

That's what most of the rest of us would do (lightly physically chastise, please), but you're supposed to reason with it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
