The black community by far uses the most corporal punishmentand they raise kids who do far more crime. I dont think that association backs your argument.
In my job I interact with teens every day. You can tell those who are undisciplined. They commit the most crime.
I know a certain violent, foul mouthed, young lady in the care of passive grandparents. I spoke with the grandfather and he said he “tried” to discipline her and she told him to “shut up.”
Are you prepared to reconsider your hypothesis?
No—and discipline and beatings are not the same thing. Jeesh!
