It also makes people of the later generations have a whole different view on spanking children for upbringing. There are, of course, people who still see it as okay but most of my generation that I’ve talked to (millennial) see it as any other form of child abuse and is kind of appalled by the amount of people advocating child abuse in other countries (Although this is obviously anecdotal, I still feel like it carry some value)

@@iceteeize I have seen it on some occasions when someone in charge of a crying child has hit out at that child and has been brought to the attention of security personnel in a public place. I didn't hang around long enough to see the consequences of this intervention but in general any form of public violence towards a vulnerable person is treated very seriously nowadays in Ireland. This wasn't always the case and corporal punishment or chastisement as it was called in polite middle class circles was common in Ireland in the 1970's. From my schooldays it still infuriates me that the children of rich and influential people were let away with a lot more than the children of poor and powerless parents. Violence was used as a common instrument of discipline and fear was the common motivator for imparting lessons. All this teaching method taught was the Nazi value of might is right and the bigger guy can lord it over the little guy.

Saying it is legal in the US isn't wholly accurate, basically giving a kid a swat on their backsides is legal, though increasingly frowned upon, but if you hit a child hard enough to harm the child then it is child abuse. Also in some states mutual combat is still legal between adults, so we are a country that just accepts more violence than a lot of others.

BUT, if you don't show up you can appeal if you got a valid reason (example: you were in ill in hospital, serving the armed forces/police/ working as a medic or essential service personeel, if you were abroad of your electoral home (outside the state if it is a municipal election or country if it is a national election) and in case of out of the country, at the day of the election provided you visit the embassy/contact the closest Brazil embassy/consulate at the day of the poll). but it isn't just a fine, some public services (especially passport) can be suspended untill you get your situation straight (usually by paying the fine or justifying why you weren't there).

As a child of severe physical punishment, growing up in New Zealand spanking was legal until only a few years ago (maybe 15?), when it was banned the only people who cared or were upset by this were parents who had been physically abusing their children, and then telling the police & child services it was a 'spank' and the kid was exaggerating. It suddenly became a lot harder to lie about beating the living day lights out of your kids. Parents have just become a bit sneakier about their abuse. Before this ban was passed, my teachers would see marks and bruises on me and call the police or CPS. Mum would twist the story to 'I'm just punishing her, she's out of control!' (Yes, this 7 year old girl who plays quietly in her room and loves school?) and they would leave. Guess how much worse the punishment was when they left? I have siblings significantly younger than me and now I don't have to worry about that happening to them since I've left. It is not just legally harder to get away with, but now socially too. She finds other ways to be abusive, but finally, there's a line she can cross where she will be legally reprimanded and people around her are starting to not be okay with any of her mess. As a child, when even LEO are telling you you deserve to be beaten and to not complain or speak out, you learn to accept abuse and never speak out again.

I have severe anxiety disorder from this type of garbage. Many children including myself were chased around the house and "disciplined" their entire life. Chased up and down the house for wanting to stay home from school and play video games. Beaten with the metal end of a belt until I would stop crying. This is not okay. I get terrified at the slightest noises and circumstances now. I was a lot calmer as a child. There is a reason for the increase in Anxiety diagnosis overall, separate to Technology. Nothing to do with TikTok or the 'Algorithm' Children get beat. Their head gets messed up. They perceive the world from a hyper-aggressive point of view then project it onto others without even realizing it. The reason why its so bad is because there is no metric or measurement we can all standardize. Some parents will lightly tap their child's hand with a spoon, which is far more reasonable than beating someone with a metal end of the belt. Each parent has the liberty to go as harsh as they want to, ultimately perpetuating the cycle and causing net harm.

How is spanking any more clear than speaking to them? Is it because "Fear/pain teaches them"? I suppose you'd be okay with someone punching you if you littered then, since it'd teach you not to? 2. How is it different? Describe, physically, how it is a different thing. Because a slap is hitting someone with an open palm, leaving a red mark and stinging pain. A spank is also doing that. How are they different things? Is it using "Reasonable force"? What amount of force is reasonable then? I want someone to tell me *how hard you can hit your child before it starts being a bad thing* with a straight face

As a young Brazilian, I used to think that being compelled to show up to vote (even if you present a "blank" vote, as you're allowed) was absurd. That was until I learned how people in the US were in actuality stripped of the right to vote by a series of laws and logistic choices, topped by the fact that they can't even choose their President directly, with one vote having the same weight as every other. That and also when our former President employed the Federal Police to prevent people from getting to the voting booth in regions where he was certain to lose. After those incidents, I defend voting as a duty whose accomplishment must be protected and promoted by the State at all costs.

As an Australian, the upside of compulsory voting laws that wasn't mentioned is that because it's compulsory and people need to at least go in and get crossed off the list, it means it is required by law for the independent electoral commission to ensure that there are polling booths everywhere (most schools become polling locations as well as some places like a local Scout hall near me), and that mail in voting and early voting sites are readily available, which prevents the attempts at voter suppression you get in the US of trying to stop people voting in places they don't want them to by stopping bussing elderly people to polls, or closing poll locations to ensure that lines in the "wrong" areas are so long they discourage people from taking time off to vote. Our elections are also on Saturdays instead of the idiotic American system that put them on Tuesdays so you could ride a slow donkey from a farm to and from the poll location without missing church on Sunday. We also often have BBQs set up at poll sites selling food and drinks for charity.

That was the only time; and I totally agree with him. I should also mention that I have Asperger's, and would frequently make the same mistakes over and over again. My mother on the other hand, spanked me all the time and it had negative effects; so I can see both sides. I think that it is a tool that intelligent parents can use to teach important concepts and prevent massive pain later in life; I also think that parents can easily slide into taking out frustrations on their children. I think, as a father I would take my own father's route, and only spank my children for engaging in behavior that truly endangered their lives. Playing with a hot stove is a lesson that teaches itself: walking into traffic or train tracks is not a mistake a child can afford to learn the consequences of from experience.

If you grew up poor among other poor kids, you would know that spanking was probably the only real deterrent that kept us from going on a bad path.

A curious little unknown fact about Brazil's 1 dolar fine is that it actually works as a deterrent in 2 cases: 1. Everyone knows there is a fine, but a small, yet non-negligible part of the population doesn't know how much is it. It's public information, but I've met my fair share of people who thought it was a lot more, so they went to vote not to be fined until someone told them. 2. Not that long ago, the process to pay your fine was more of a pain in the ass than to go voting. You had to go to the proper government building, get the bill, then to to the correct bank, stay in line, etc. Nowadays you ca just do it through an app, but remember the people from 1 who didn't know the fine was a dollar until someone told them? Some of them didn't get this memo either. Bonus curiosity: If you can't pay the fine you don't have to. I know this isn't how fines are supposed to work, but if you're homeless or in some super vulnerable situation you just have to sign a paper saying you can't pay and the fine gets pardoned.

In middle school I was paddled once for minor infraction. The next day my father who at 6’6” was a mountain of a man had a meeting with the principal and the coach who paddle to me - my father told them that if I was ever paddled again he would come back here and he would paddle them. I was a good kid & thankfully I never got paddled again.

Regarding Voting in Australia: It's compulsory for Federal and State Elections & Referendums, but not for the smaller local government (edit: depending on state. I wasn't aware but it's apparently also compulsory in some states). In addition, while you are required to vote, there's no requirement for your vote to be a "valid" vote. It is perfectly legal to walk into an election booth, cover your voting slip in nothing but phallic imagery, or in fact to write nothing on the ballot at all. This is called an informal vote, and is a valid way to say "I don't like ANY of these candidates".

It is compulsory to vote in local government elections (except Western Australia and South Australia) - fine is $55 in New South Wales. [Edit to add exceptions to compulsory voting] You are correct that there is no obligation to write anything on the ballot paper - so, if that's your intention, just leave them blank or put a big cross through them.

My mother used to slap me on the lips. She did it without even bothering to tell me what I did wrong, let alone explain why it was wrong. She did it in front of other people or in the street too. It was painful and humiliating and sometimes it would draw blood. Shd would try to get my father to hit me with a belt too but he always managed to avoid doing it. Corporal punishment is illegal in Greece but the ban is rarely enforced on parents as there are still several of the "I came out fine" crowd. However it is very rarely done in the open as many will at least criticize it. When I was a kid it was considered normal and even encouraged. I'm sure it still happens behind closed doors and is never reported as there is lots of "none of my business" and "snitches get stitches" mentality.

I often had to face pretty intense corporal punishment as a child when I had emotional meltdowns (not even really misbehaving, just crying) and I never understood why. At 23 i was finally diagnosed with autism and now my parents feel guilty because that is obviously extremely unhelpful. Too often parents jump to hitting without even explaining why the child is being punished. If they cannot understand, all it does is traumatize them. Even if they do understand their wrongdoing, how insecure do you have to be as a full grown adult and parent that you feel the need to assert your superior physical strength to an ignorant, innocent child

If you break the skin, or leave a bruise, it crosses the line from "a slap/spanking" to "assault", which is why teachers are usually unwilling to resort to it, and haven't generally since the 80's. Teachers would still threaten to do so by slapping a yard stick against a chair though. Private schools on the other hand...

You see why corporal punishment shouldn't be dished out by teachers at all.

I was a well behaved kid and wasnt spanked much, but I was traumatized by other kids being hit. In school they would spank kids with a giant wooden paddle in front of the whole class. There were two classrooms, so they got it twice. In second grade the teacher sometimes pulled down the kids pants first and paddled their naked butt. Once she made us all line up to get whipped on the hands with a ruler because a few kids were talking. It left bruises. No adult ever got in trouble for it. To this day it literally hurts my bones to see someone get beat like kids were beat when i was little. I am 44 years old now. I DID need therapy. I literally cannot remember a single "spanking" that was deserved. I do remember wondering why i was spanked and asking my mom to explain to me what i did wrong. She said she didnt know but i must have done SOMETHING 😢 all i learned is no matter how good you are, there is no safety.

When I got the belt, I put on tons of underwear to reduce the blows.

While I don't condone fearful threats, I think what he was trying to say is "be grateful I'm more merciful to you than my parent(s) were to me" but regardless it's not something proud nor nice to be said.

@@Feathertail2205 More like "be grateful I don't beat you more". Not using a belt is not much of a mercy.

My days of drinking have passed ( i stopped around the time americans can legally start drinking) , but when I did, I never drove drunk. What I did instead was to sleep in my car and drove home later the next day. Had I lived in the US, I would have probably driven home to sleep there insted, as sleeping drunk in your car is comparable to driving drunk, but with much higher chance of detection.
