I just read a thread about 10 to 12-year-olds acting acting all tough and messing around with older kids and I couldn't help but wonder, didn't their parents hit them?
Haha second I saw the title I knew it was from there!
Yeah, I'd get smacked on the ass if I misbehaved and learned not to do that. Hell my dad will headslap me (NCIS style) if I swear or act poorly in front of him.
Simple biology - you hit a living thing when it misbehaves it learns that acting that way could get it hurt again. It's still done with cats and dogs yet it's TERRIBLE to do it to a child?
