> The Native Americans didn’t use corporal punishment. They used shame. If you misbehaved, you dishonored your parents and the community. To be shamed was something a child tried to avoid at all costs.

The child was treated with dignity - and learned dignity. Imagine that.

But Native American children didn’t have outside influences like social media, MSM, Internet, cellphones, and video games to feed them a steady stream of input to show them how to be bad either. Their family and the tribe members all shatpred the same ite beliefs. Now you have “duhversity” and its not always a good thing. I believe their parents would forgo the shaming and just go ahead and burn them at the stake if they had had to deal with that...

Maybe some native Americans were not abusive but many original tribes were abusive. How to stop a baby from crying? Throw water in its face.
