No, I didn’t. I have twin 10 year olds. I was abused by my dad. What this is is abuse. He should be in jail, counseling or something.
What this is, is adequate punishment.
He should be in jail, counseling or something.
He should be on the cover of Parenting Magazine and get a personal reception at the Trump White House.
You’re on the wrong site. DU is over yonder. This is NOT abuse. Abuse is allowing children to get away with bad behavior. Thinking like your’s is why teenagers and college kids are like they are today.
When I was a 10-year old girl my punishment was to chop/split firewood with an axe (gasp!) for a week or shovel sh** out of the barn by myself for a week, or get up a 4:00am to feed and water livestock by myself for a week. Those were my regular chores but I usually had four siblings to help, unless I was being punished. If we had lived in town I would have been running to school too.
My daddy didn’t raise any sissies or bullies.
You're joking right ... if not ... you're on the wrong web site. I ran to school 3 miles EACH way RAIN or shine at that age ... on my own. In high school that 3 miles run in the morning was to get to swim practice which was 1-2 miles in the morning and 3 miles in the evening followed with an UP HILL 3 mile run home. So please spare me about this poor little snowflake
Bull! I walked the mile+ to school every day come rain, snow, or shine. But I hated the big rubber boots! Fifties.
