Little snot deserved it for running off from his mama. She smacked him 10 times on his clothed bottom. Whoopde-do.

His fault?   Don't be an idiot, that's the nature of a small child; it's the parents job to track and contain the little curtain climbers.  Hold their hand, if they pull away grab them back violently (but carefully) and scold firmly. Firmly in meaning they are scared because of Daddy/Mommy's angry voice; and finally - do not get angry, just pretend to be.

Repeat after me: "It is the Adult's responsibility"

And seeing how he's probably all of like three years old, he had no idea what he was being beaten for by the time he got to the car; and never, ever use anything but your hand on a small child. 

*Author's note:  This diatribe comes at the end of a day spent chaperoning middle school kids at Disneyland; the number of fat fucks with their kids on leashes just sickens me.

Thank You!  I remember the national outrage several years ago when a White woman beat her daughter with a hairbrush.  This hasn’t made the national news because I guess people don’t see anything unusual about negroes beating the crap out of small children.

So Headkicker, it’s normal for a black woman to beat the crap out of her child when he gets lost in a store?  A White mother would be doing the “my poor baby, are you ok?" routine while calming herself down after the anxiety attack she experienced while her child was missing.

I understand why people beat kids, I don't have any, but I often feel the urge to beat other people's kids senseless after having to put up with them for just a few minutes..  I can't imagine having to live with them all the time and put up with their bullshit..  Emmeran is right though, if you bring them into the world and they turn out to be little turds then the only person to blame is yourself and you shouldn't take it out on them.  I'm obviously not an expert or a parent, but I've always thought that using violence to get your kids to do what you want them to sends the wrong message.  On that note I'd like to mention how happy I am that I don't have children and how abortion is still legal...

I don't "beat" my child either and I would never smack her with anything but an open palm on the backside. But I also understand that other people discipline their children in other ways and I respect a parents decision as paramount.

Where? I would assume that point where the skull meets the spine.

followed by more lecture.

I would think it useless at this point.

I spanked my daughter exactly once in her life when she was very little and kept coming out of her room after I'd sent her there for some infraction. "You better go back into your room...or I'll...or I'll...or I'll spank you!" I remember saying. Then she came out of her room again and I thought, "oh shit."

I pulled down her pants, and put her over my knee, and swatted her once about as firmly as you might, say, fluff a pillow. And we both burst into tears, and I never hit her again. I still feel kind of sick thinking about it.

She's a great kid too.

I think hitting is pretty much a last resort, overused and not that effective, even counter productive.  I vividly remember my dad beating the crap out of me for some stupid shit, and I only remember thinking, "you fucking asshole."
