‘…Children who are spanked, hit, or pushed as a means of discipline may be at an increased risk of mental problems in adulthood — from mood and anxiety disorders to drug and alcohol abuse, new research suggests…’
I detect the odour of steaming horsecrap. Or at the very least, rubbish methodology…
Leftists/”progressives”/socialists are not welcome here. Pay for your own soapbox.

The funny thing about all this “research” is we’ve had traditional discipline for thousands of years ,done reasonably well,until now when all this ’60s shit has come to fruition and our society is literally falling apart.
Yep—even the sainted Dr. Spock admitted he was wrong, but it never stopped fools from taking his advice. And look at the product…..
From the looks of things, one would have a hell of a time just trying to find parents who are willing to give up a few seconds of their “me time” to the duties of parenting, whether it’s through reason OR the judicious use of corporal punishment.
“Drug and alcohol abuse” uh from what I see that starts around age 10 these days so what explains that?Ill equipped parents who weren’t brought up right themselves that’s what.
Too many people raising children these days instead of adults.I still remember the talk my father gave my brothers and I when we first started driving.-“If I get a call in the middle of the night from an authority figure it had better be the hospital or the morgue””If it’s the police I’m hanging up” That talk has served me well over the years and till this day not so much as a parking ticket.
So how do these idiots explain the drug and alcohol abuse in children who are not spanked? In fact this is at a higher rate than in spanked/disciplined children.
This is another case of the facts being skewed to fit the theory.
These stupid people and their dumb-arse theories make me sick. I am so over their crap I could get my husband’s shotgun and happily take them all out the back behind the woodshed and deal to the lot of them myself.
Everything they say is the exact opposite to what is actually the truth. Raise children with no boundaries and no discipline and they will get into everything they can get their hands on. I make a point of ignoring every single little regulation and law that is introduced. I just carry on regardless. My children were smacked when they were naughty and they knew why. I still have my smacking spoon in the drawer! The powers that be can come and get me if they like. I simply don’t care any more.
Ahh the old spanking=child abuse argument. Can’t these people come up with something new?
“I simply don’t care any more.”
I reckon most of us here feel the same, Pix. We’ve had enough of this garbage.
“New Research” “proving” some crap that defies common sense is normally shovelled out of an academic sty by people who have never been told to shut up [and been back-handed if they didn’t]. They are the center of their own universe.
The endless struggle to think well of themselves drives them to become more outrageous in their utterances.
They are immensely boring. I will continue to ignore them like other people’s obnoxious kids.
Yep.
We are governed by traitors who actively seek policies to break the nation down. The process is almost complete. People are are now so bewildered, so fragmented, so confused as to be all but incapable of mounting a united opposition to their treachery.
This “latest research” is just more evidence of the success of this deliberate policy.
I’m with you Pix.
