"Parents should be allowed to beat their kids when they act up. My parents beat me all the time and I turned out okay!"

-People who did not, in fact, turn out okay

I was spanked as a child and am not okay, but to be fair, the childhood friends I keep up with were not spanked as children and also are not okay. Clearly we are in need of a third option.

Just a little spanking, as a treat?

Whoops now I'm a dominatrix. How does this keep happening?

[–] platypus_plumba@lemmy.world 14 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I think the problem isn't that spanking is bad, I think the problem is that some parents just skip every step that leads to that being the only remaining alternative. The problem is that learning those strategies is not easy, parents don't educate themselves on proper parenting.

At least now we know how Sunraku saved up for the Weathermon fight.

Holy shit, is the man in the bird mask the one who left all those porno mags in the woods???

[–] SuckMyWang@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

Yes, be careful it’s a trap. Unless you’re looking for that

[–] SuckMyWang@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

Better than being an unsuccessful business man doing that stuff

Whu did I think of a plague doctors mask?

I'm fine. Sure I sometimes wake up in the middle of the night terrified my dad's just gonna come through the door and beat me for no reason, but other than that I'm perfectly normal.

It’s from clickhole, a subsidiary of The Onion.

[–] Jomega@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I know where it's from. I just wanted a link to the article.

[–] CuddlyCassowary@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Isn’t that it in the screenshot?

[–] Jomega@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I can't click a screenshot and go to the article.

[–] C3D@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago (1 children)

There you go. Also, the link in the screenshot doesn't work anymore
