Have you ever been "disciplined" by your parents?

[Mar451]

My dad and stepmom hated eachother so much that they would use me as an example of what they would do to eachother whenever they were pissed off...which was all the time.

Punch, kick, slap, hit, whip, break, smack, they'd bang my head off the wall like it was a bouncy ball. Then they'd laugh make me strip to my undies spit on me and make me go to bed no matter what time it is never failing to tell me how much i didnt deserve to exist.

My dad had a wonderful nickname for me, broken condom.

Thank Valve there not a problem anymore

AKA, have you ever gotten your ass beat by your mother or father (or anyone else)? Do have a good beating story that you would like to share?

And for all the parents out there: If you don't already: Will you ever discipline your kids if they fall out of line?

As for me: The beating that sticks out in my mind was when I was like 12. I was doing math homework, and I was having a hard time doing it. So... i think i was getting a little fussy, and my mom gets mad. So she grabs a belt and gives the whole "i'll give you something to cry about" threats. But i don't give in. So she retaliates, striking me with metal belt buckle. the buckle connects at full velocity.

At this point, imagine the boxing game Fight Night. You know how when they show the highlights, they show one unlucky bastard getting knocked out, all the contents of his face practically shifting to one side? Well, in this case, i'm the unlucky bastard. Like, I got hit so hard, my head cocks entirely to the side, spit flying out my mouth and everything. Eventually, I get up, in hopes to get away. But that's all I remember from that. Next thing I do remember was waking up in my bed. Apparently, she hit me so hard, I blacked out when I tried to distance myself from her.

So. That's my story. What do you have to share?

That's hilarious. I bet you didn't ***** about math homework again.

I wasn't really beaten, although I probably got the odd slap. I did get a sound telling of and trust me, when my mum or dad goes on a rant, you'll feel like ducking your head in a bucket of water and keeping it there till they're done shouting at you.

Also, my dad had the habit of flicking me on the forehead when I was bad, it hurt, but as I got older it wasn't as effective.

I will admit that I do the same thing to my kid brother, when he pisses me off.

There is definately a difference between being disciplined and being 'beaten'. Being disciplined is when your parent would pass judgement on your actions, dictated as either allowed or inappropriate, and is of course followed by a positive or negative reinforcement (i.e. physical). That doesn't make it wrong. Parents have done this for centuries and centuries and now suddenly schools and parents would rather have their children on pills than 'disciplined.'(This might drag off-topic) Its called being a child. We all were at one time. Most ADHD isn't real, its called child-hood and a growing mind. Theres no reason to be beaten or forcefully having to ingest pills that keep children 'calm'. The elementary schools want students on pills so they can learn from their textbooks and such. For the love of God! Why should kids have to be fed about as much homework (in quantity) as a high schooler. Childhood is supposed to be fun, not one giant brain-washed class.

Of course if you've been beaten just because a parent wants to vent anger or they have an unstable mentality than the real issue lies there. But of course parents usually have a good reason to disciple you, so you should take their judgement into effect.

Now I'm glad I was disciplined from a young age or I would've probably turned into my sister; a walking drug and alchoholic STD.

What the fuck?

Shouldn't there be someone in here going "We don't want that, like that topic about rape and that stuff. Fox news may have reporters on here and look to profit from crazy topics with wild news-stories"? Or maybe I'm the only one recalling that.

But no... I would recommend a lot of people here some nice therapy.

Trust me. Trust the psychologist. If he/she doesn't help you, visit the psychiatrist... If that's a dead end... Well, I'm sure we can find a spot for you in the mental hospital... BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE SO CALM ABOUT GETTING BEATEN BY THEIR PARENTS. IF THEY ARE, IT IS MOST LIKELY BECAUSE OF THE NOTORIOUS "IT WAS MY OWN FAULT"-SYNDOME, ALSO KNOWN AS "I WILL ALSO DO IT TO MY CHILDREN".

Well Mr. Psychiatrist are you familiar with the phrase defense mechanism? When you grow up with shit like this you get used to it, and what do you expect us to write?

*Sob, sob* my parents beat me *sob*

Fuck you Freud.

Defense mechanism, where you use something, often humor to disguise the fact that something is really bothering you. And the IT WAS MY OWN FAULT syndrome where they abuse their own kids your talking about is called mirroring you stupid ****.

Mirroring the actions they grew up with.

And no offense to the others, as i didnt read you all, but it seems to me that me and the OP are the only ones who were abused severely. (Please note that if you were abused severely i just did not see your post and i apologize) In which OF COURSE were not going to be all emo, oh woes is me im abused.

The OP is venting, i do it all the time you fucking shrink posing rectal wart.

Don't pose as a psychiatrist and don't say shit you learned from Criminal fucking Minds

I got spanked when i was younger but only by my dad. My mom thought me and my brother were perfect little angels, Beacuse my dad gave us a got punishment. That being said I probably got more hurt by my little brother then my parents.

 

[Xanadeas]

I wasn't hit often as a kid but there were a couple points in time when my dad freaked out on me. One time hitting me in the back with, of all things, one of those rubber fin things you wear on your feet while diving. Another time he kicked me right in the leg and fucked up my leg for a couple days. I don't really see that as even remotely helpful to me at all.

There were a couple other times when my mom smacked me. I just rubbed my cheek and laughed at her. ...I was never really afraid of them hitting me or anything. It was being yelled at that I couldn't stand.

*EDIT*
Since I forgot to mention I won't ever be having kids the last bit about me disciplining them is kind of a moot point. Though if I did I think I'd probably just send them to a corner or something.

 

[ultrachicken]

No, the worst thing my parents have done to me was call me a brat.

Surprisingly, I'm pretty well mannered.

EDIT: I probably won't "discipline" my kids. Or maybe I will. Who knows?

 

[mrhappyface]

My Dad. When I was little, he was real lenient to me. But the thing that ticked him off the most was when I lied to him. He told me to put my pants down, put my hands against the wall, and he give me about 5 lashes with his leather belt. I sometimes bled a little but there were no scars, and I took it like a man and I learned to be honest to my father. My Dad's a military man, so that's why he may seem a little extreme, but I honestly believe that he wasn't. It was discipline, not abuse. Rememeber that scene from Starship Troopers or ever read Gates of Fire? Yeah.

 

[LeonLethality]

I fear the wooden spoon, let us leave it at that.

I don't step out of line anymore...

 

[Dr. wonderful]

AKA, have you ever gotten your ass beat by your mother or father (or anyone else)? Do have a good beating story that you would like to share?

I would like to say since I'm Black the answer would be...

Spoiler

Hell yes.

Okay, about hmm...I'm seventeen now...subtract 4...When I was 13.... I gotten a virus stuck on our computer, which made it pop-up porn sites.

...

That was a awkard year.

 

[Contun]

I was never beaten... I've been smacked, but I probably did something to deserve it...
I try to stay in my room most of the time...

 

[Mar451]

I see what you are now, your nothing more than a troll, someone who deliberately makes post like this to get people like me worked up. Whats a matter? Daddy never around to play catch with you so you come here posting something offensive looking for a fight?

I must hand it to you, you're making me laugh with this shit Good stuff, man.

Venting is good by the way, my shrink tells me that venting to a trusted person is a healthy way to release your emotions in a nonviolent way.

We, apparently, have destinctively different ideas of what "venting" means. To me, it means channeling your anger/frustration. To you, it means a healthy conversation with a trustee. I agree completely then. Venting is healthy but should only be done with extremely close friends, family or a psychologist.

I wipe my hands of you, you sad little boy, perhaps you should play Cats in the Cradle for daddy, then maybe he'd play catch with you finally.

Come on, man, you're being rude for no reason at all, while calling me a troll It's a conflicting message, d00d.

Regardless: "I WILL ALSO DO IT TO MY CHILDREN" or "Mirroring" is the problem here, which I tried conveying with my first post...To which you did not reply, I might add, other than informing me of the actual term.

You're calling me the troll, when you're harassing me, and I'm actually on-topic?

You're really in deep shit now.

Just how am i in deep shit exactly?

And i didnt reply to it directly because i find the idea of mirroring to be pants on head retarded, thats like saying people who grow up with drinkers will become drinkers.

Just because your raised in an environment like that dosnt mean your going to do it, is the chances raised? Yeah, probably, its because your familiar with the environment, not all people who are abused are doomed to repeat the cycle, likewise, some are.

I would rather turn a belt sander on high and try and get rid of my acne with it then abuse any kids i may have, i beleive that child abusers, pedophiles and rapists should be put in prison cafeterias, get the thirty worst inmates, lock them all in and then take all the guards out to the nearest Micky Ds.

And none of us are on topic, if we were on topic then we would be discussing if our parentsp unished us or not, and considering you did'nt even post anything like that in your orginal post and just spat bullshit about how if your abused your going to abuse your children just because you don't cry about it everytime someone brings it up.

You get used to it, it sucks, and yeah, you do cry at night long after the fact, but just because someone asks about why you have a bruise across your face dosnt mean your going to break down and cry.

Laughter is the best medicine, laugh in the face of fear, and fear loses its power.

When you say "hurt"... What do you mean?

It sounds pretty severe, to be honest, which, in turn, sounds terrible.

It's not that bad. We're siblings, We get into fights, Sinces he is stroung and smarter i useually lose. All my dad ever did was spank, I've been kicked, pushed, pinned, get a few balls to body parts (By which i mean tennis balls and basket balls.) But thats just what siblings do right?

 

[Bat Vader]

I was never really disciplined as a child, mainly because I never did anything wrong. My sister is the trouble-maker in the family, not me.

 

[Machiavellian007]

Never beaten, although I have gotten into fights with my dad a few times whenever I argue with him and he's drunk. Mostly I beat his ass.

Girl power! ... or something like that.

 

[Mar451]

Show him! Parents are supposed to be that parents, not drunken assholes who use their children as emotional and physical punching bags
