"Grammar Nazi Time!
Could you please put a little more effort into typing your posts? It literally takes me a few minutes just to comprehend what you're saying. Misspelling words that I used, capitalizing after a comma, improper grammar? Really?"
I didnt spell out your words I copied and paste'd them, so there your spelling errors not mine, I have bad grammer but read your post again and you will realise that you have fallen victem to Murphrys Law (Look it up, Its not a misspell dont confuse it with Murphys laws), though what grammar as got to do with this subject I have no idea.
"Human instinct, after the application of adrenaline, is "fight or flight." Given that I have taken measures to rule out the "flight" option, what else is left? Exactly. I don't run, I don't give up, I don't take crap from anyone laying down. Anyone."
Stop talking shit please, were talking about a child here, not a full grown adult, your parental insticts should kick in and counter the fight or flight instict, you dont get the same adrenaline when a child attacks you that you do when a adult attacks you mainly becuase you know by instict that the child is of no real threat to you. This can be seen in the wildlife kindom too.
"It's not just the fact that it's attacking me, it's the fact that he has inflicted a great deal of pain, and with my face at its level now, it is in a perfect position to inflict a lot more."
This is a child were talking about, please get that into your head, a child, your deeply overestimating the damage a child can do, your given the same attribute to the child that are of an adult, the damage a child will do to you by kicking you in the balls isnt going to be enough to bring a full grown man to his knees.
"I'm 18, by the way."
Then theres no excuse, you should easily be able to overpower a child without resulting to phyical damage, mere restraints would do.
So... where exactly did I mess up? If you had copied my words, you wouldn't have "neutralized" spelled two different ways up there. You can't even spell "victim" right. Grammar is involved because I have a hard time telling what your sentences mean when they're a clusterfuck of words.
And I'm aware that the child isn't a threat, hence the one, underpowered backhand and not a full ass-beating. You're really not paying attention to what I say, are you? But if the child is running around kicking guys in the balls, it's clearly underdisciplined, and the smack would serve to teach it not to pick a fight it can't win.
Even parental instincts would dictate that a child who does something wrong needs to be punished. My point is not to "beat the shit out of the kid," I've said that multiple times but you don't seem to be getting it. One hit does not qualify as that. It was even another guy who said to beat the shit out of them, yet you're jumping down my throat when I even slightly disagreed with him.
As for overestimating its strength, you have any idea how little force it takes to really fuck up your eye, or at least hurt it a lot?
I make concession after concession, and you still think all I want to do is hit the kid as hard as I can just because it hit me. Please, actually read what I'm saying, don't assume I mean what I didn't say, and then reply.
You know what? There's no point arguing with you anymore. You're not paying attention anyways, so I'm done.
"Even parental instincts would dictate that a child who does something wrong needs to be punished."
I never said theres anythink wrong with disiplin, I clearly state that my neice gets a slap on the hand when she misbehaves, but a slap on the hand is alot different from a backhander across the face.
"My point is not to "beat the shit out of the kid," I've said that multiple times but you don't seem to be getting it. One hit does not qualify as that. It was even another guy who said to beat the shit out of them, yet you're jumping down my throat when I even slightly disagreed with him."
I gave up saying that you wanted to kick the shit out of the kid after you stated that it wasnt what you see it as. I gave up when you said that to beat them up you would have to backhand the child then start curb stomping it. I'm not jumping down your throat, I'm having a discussion, if you look I have taken everythink you have said seriously, Ive re read them many times before posting, were both debating on wether we think that its justified to backhand a child, you think it is and I think it isnt.
"I make concession after concession, and you still think all I want to do is hit the kid as hard as I can just because it hit me. Please, actually read what I'm saying, don't assume I mean what I didn't say, and then reply."
No I dont think you want to hit the kid as hard as you can, you clearly stated that in your last post and I didnt press the matter, I just stated your looking at the kid as if it was an adult, this is what impression you left me with the talk of adrenaline and fight or flight, I've had a child angry at me before and to come after me, there was no adrenaline in me, the child wasnt a threat, I simply grabed the hand he was trying to hit me with and grabbed his other hand and waited till he'd calmed down.
"As for overestimating its strength, you have any idea how little force it takes to really fuck up your eye, or at least hurt it a lot?"
Ive taken a good amount of damage to the eye given my hobby involves me doing alot of fighting and sparring, my eye isnt damaged, its been bruised and swollen but no permanent damage, and this is from a full grown adult, I doubt a child could do any major damage, you underestimate the human body.
"And I'm aware that the child isn't a threat, hence the one, underpowered backhand and not a full ass-beating."
If your aware the child isnt a threat then there would be no need for the backhand, not even an underpowered back hand, you would have a clear enough head to restrian the child.
"You're really not paying attention to what I say, are you? But if the child is running around kicking guys in the balls, it's clearly underdisciplined, and the smack would serve to teach it not to pick a fight it can't win."
It depends on wether the child is yours, if it isnt your child then underdisciplined or not you have no right to disciplin the child, as much as we like to we carnt, I wish I could disciplin all the kids out there in my area, smoking, drinking, potting windows, attacking other smaller kids, but I carnt. If its your child then its upto you to disciplin him.
"the smack would serve to teach it not to pick a fight it can't win."
If it is your child then I wouldnt be teaching it not to pick a fight it can't win, I'd be teaching it not to disrespect its father, but you stated that you dont fly but you fight, woundnt you want your kid following in the same idea?? Personally I would be extremely proud of my child for having the bravery to do so.
"You know what? There's no point arguing with you anymore. You're not paying attention
anyways, so I'm done."
I'm paying full attention to what your saying, maybe I'm interpriting wrong, but I'm paying attention, maybe your not paying attention to what I'm saying. Anyway if you dont what to talk or carry this on then thats your perogative and your welcome to it.
