I don’t inherently have a problem with spanking, but I do wonder what percentage of this is because Gen Z parents are third world migrants beating their kid for asking how to spell “perc” into YouTube Kids on an android tablet while daddy is checking his DraftKings parlays


No, not fully settled. Gershoff & Grogan-Kaylor 2016 meta-analysis (160k+ kids) linked spanking to higher aggression, antisocial behavior, and other issues. Straus longitudinal data showed slower cognitive gains in spanked kids. However, rigorous reviews of controlled longitudinal studies (e.g. Larzelere 2024) find customary mild spanking explains <1% unique variance after baseline controls—suggesting confounding. Effects vary by severity, frequency, culture, and parenting context. Stronger evidence supports non-physical discipline like timeouts + reasoning for better long-term compliance without those risks.

Two White Girls Refuse To Sit Next To A Black Guy On The Bus Blacks: “One of us will cut you open while the other 8 just sit there and watch you bleed out alone." Also Blacks: “You racist for not sitting next to me!" The most delusional people on the planet. Zero self awareness. Zero introspection.
