I heard if you don't discipline your kids the world will do it for you and the world is harsher because they have no love for your kids. So far I have not seen this proven wrong. Discipline should be discipline though, not abuse.

Edit: You can discipline your kids through a stern talking to, cutting off allowances, grounding, allowing more chores or whatever is apt. discipline should be discipline though, not abuse.

The vast majority of people who spank or hit their kids do it because they’re angry in the moment. I’ve never seen anyone coolly and thoughtfully apply corporal punishment to their children.

Sister in law bear the fuck out of her kids and they're all successful. I tried to be kind and my kids are mid. Although we have much better relationships.

There is no causation here. The prisons are filled with people who got beat.

Beat with purpose beyond self gratification maybe?
