      A responsible parent understands the importance of not resorting to physical or verbal abuse towards their child. Effective communication is crucial, and setting clear expectations for behavior is key. While I may not know the person mentioned personally, I can share my perspective on how I approach discipline with my own daughter.
      I prefer using minimal force when disciplining my child, emphasizing the connection between disobedience and consequences. After administering discipline, I make it a point to explain that my actions stem from a desire for her to learn and be obedient, not to inflict harm. I stress the distinction between discipline and abuse, underscoring that any form of excessive force from others would be considered abusive.
      Open communication plays a vital role in helping children understand the difference between discipline and abuse. In our case, my child's involvement in karate has contributed to her comprehension of the consequences of using excessive physical force. I believe children are capable of understanding more than we might give them credit for, and my daughter, in particular, has shown remarkable intelligence from a young age.
      Despite attempts at non-physical disciplinary measures, there are instances where conventional methods prove ineffective. In such cases, introducing the possibility of a physical response, such as a spanking, is considered. However, it's essential to note that this is not the preferred approach, and alternative consequences are usually explored first.
      While my daughter occasionally displays indifference to timeouts or the removal of privileges, it doesn't necessarily lead to physical discipline. Instead, creative consequences may be employed, such as threatening to dispose of toys or presenting the option of a spanking as a last resort. The goal is to convey the seriousness of disobedience without resorting to physical measures whenever possible.
      In certain situations, such as when my daughter's safety is at risk or if she engages in physically harmful behavior, a measured response may involve resorting to spanking. For instance, playing in the road despite explicit instructions would warrant a more immediate and firm disciplinary action.
      It's crucial to adapt disciplinary approaches based on the unique needs and behaviors of each child. Striking a balance between firmness and understanding is essential to fostering a healthy parent-child relationship.

      I am pretty sure some straight couples that adopt children do it cause they biologically can’t have children of their own. Just because straight couples can’t have biological children of their doesn’t mean procreation isn’t magnificent.

      Sure I have a specific relationship with my mother but I gained nothing from having a father. He could've been any other male figure in my life. The last time I had a real deep conversation with him was him calling me on the phone telling me that mom was upset because I had LGBT content on my Facebook. He told me to take it off and when I refused he got angrier and angrier. I know he disapproved of my sexuality but we've yet to have an actual conversation in over a year about if he has changed simply because he doesn't reach out. A parent is supposed to be there for their child and he wasn't.

      Im not conservative by any means, but my parents used to spank me. They also used to abuse me. Even as a kid it was very clear to me which was which, I could tell when my dad was just using me as stress relief when hed hit my head or berate me. I dont support parents using corporal punishment necessarily because I think spanking is a gateway to allowing yourself to abuse your kids under the veil of "correcting behavior", but when I see parents give their kids a pat on the butt for doing something inappropriate or dangerous and using the physical shock to immortalize the memory or lesson of "do not run out into the street alone" I do not think that is close to abuse at all.

    • @reckonerwheel5336
      @reckonerwheel5336 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +27

      ​@@The1Waiter-gk4sz That's not even proof of spanking being effective though. You experienced yelling, and yelling is usually a separate parental behaviour for children, and it doesn't have much to do with a child's experience of spanking. They're usually two different behaviours. I never got spanked as a kid, yet I remember immediately braking my bike when my mother screamed my name and yelled "Stop!" to me (a car was pulling out from the driveway that I would've rolled into). I rarely ever heard her raise her voice, so I knew something must be very wrong for her to react that way.
      Every child needs disciplining but it's about creating consequences that merely annoy them rather than instill fear. That's why time-outs are used, ultimatums (ex. if you don't do ___, you won't get ___) or letting them face direct consequences (when it's not dangerous) -- like if they keep being rough with a toy, to let them play with it until breaks so they understand it was their fault.

If you don’t set boundaries for your kids, such as sleep, nutrition,hygiene, mental health, autonomy, they will turn out mirroring other kids or adults they see because somebody has to teach them said boundaries in a society or they will become animalistic. My kid doesn’t like to wear jeans nor likes his locs cleaned up. If it were up to him he wouldn’t care about his appearance. It’s my job to educate him on his appearance because we don’t live in the woods, we live amongst people that will treat you how how you look. I allow validate him by saying ‘yeah adults are that petty but it’s the game you gotta play to get better results. We live in a world where you need people and money to survive. Just play the game “

I mean have u not seen the data lately? We are heavily underpopulated and suddenly we are running out of resources and going thru massive inflation and shitty water.

    For the point of children being raised in households by same-sex parents there’s two main things to consider:
    A) The child is being raised to be a functional and responsible member of society.
    B) The child is raised with their emotional and physical needs fulfilled.
    Both of which can be fulfilled by parents of the same sex.

First of all children need repetition and redirection. And they have no impulse control. So instead of spanking and then talking about it, maybe talk to her about why it's unsafe and then redirect her to something she CAN climb so she isn't climbing the thing that's not safe for her to. Cause if you tell her once then walk away and she does it again, spanking is not the fix all. If anything you're instilling fear, not understanding.

Unfortunately just ignoring our human instincts isn’t the answer. It doesn’t make it just go away. Her parents obviously weren’t able to guide or teach her about her own body and what intimacy is so she’s forced to use social media as her guide which breaks my heart for her. Sex isn’t yucky or something to be hush hush about with your own child, yes it’s private and a mature matter but it’s apart of life, it’s probably one of, if not THE most important part of life.

He played with us as kids, read to us, cooked for us and did a lot of the "mom stuff" but he was never my mom, he was and is my dad. He's also masculine, he's just the nurturing type. And for her part, my mom was always loving but she is much better with older kids she can relate to on a conversation level and just isn't the most tactile. She still is feminine and my mom.

      I think that's mostly based on the fact that women literally nurture their children by virtue of being mothers. My children literally lived inside of me for 9 months, and then I continued to feed them with my body for months afterwards. That is the most nurturing thing you can do.
      Also I don't believe the consensus is that men can't be nurturing, that's the whole point of being a parent after all, but women on average tend to be more sensitive, agreeable, conscientious, etc., which translates to being more stereotypically nurturing ON AVERAGE compared to men who, on average, are more assertive, tolerant to risk, discerning, etc., which does not translate as stereotypically nurturing.
      There's always exceptions to the rule, but if you were to pick out a random mother and father out of the entire world's population, you could bet money that the former will exhibit typically feminine/maternal traits and the latter will exhibit typically masculine/paternal traits. This is why it's rarely helpful to look at individual experiences through the lens of group truths. Like BMI, on a population level it's an accurate and useful measure of health, but not so much for the individual.

      feminine doesn't have to mean that the mother is nurturing and the father is not. I think their point is that a mother just by being present will give a nurturing feeling to her child because it is biological and also mothers tend to be more nurturing in general.

    Erik!! I’ve been watching your videos since you and Adam had your little girls, you guys make such great parents, don’t let anybody tell you otherwise ❤ I found this debate infuriating. I grew up with a biological mother and a biological father. Both of them were narcissists; I was abused emotionally, psychologically and physically. They weren’t loving, caring or supportive; all they spreaded in my life was toxicity and utter chaos. I’m 26 and still healing from the Complex PTSD I developed from my child abuse. I KNOW without question that I would have been better off with two loving same-sex parents like Erik and his husband, than with my two toxic biological parents. I feel sorry for the queer parents and the children of queer parents in this debate, it must have been so hard to hear people tell you you’re bad parents or you were missing something growing up with same sex parents when they don’t even know you… and I cannot BELIEVE the things that were said about spanking, as if it was something acceptable or normal: it’s physical violence, it’s physical abuse. The way some of those parents unashamedly admitted spanking their children was really shocking and triggering to me, having been physically abused as a child. Physical violence is never okay, and I would NEVER, EVER hit my kids.

      Same story here, I'm 41 and I'm still dealing with my c-ptsd from childhood. As long as both parents no matter what gender just love their kid and can show what love is and how to respect other people then everything will be fine. These conservative/religious people in this video are so extremely closed minded. Luckily here in the EU we are way ahead of the U.S. of accepting other people for who they are.

    I respect everyone's views, however as an adoptee, I get very frustrated when people say same-sex households will cause a reproduction problem. Like, there are so many kids who need homes, and many queer partners would be more willing to adopt than straight partners. People are so selfish when it comes to that. The other issue is, many queer folk are not allowed to adopt. THAT to me is more of an issue.

    It pissed me off so much how they treated Elizabeth. She is living proof of her point and yet they still are so stuck in their ways. Homophobia is so rampant it even extends to the children of same-sex couples. I hope her whole family is doing well. I commend her on how well she handled that whole situation. I would be fuming. I already am fuming and I don't even have same-sex parents.

      @@couponingwithnikita9374 saying that a child would be "lacking" in some sort of experience by having single sex parents (despite the subject to the parenting - the child - telling you that this is false) implies that mothers & fathers have some inherent, biological traits that differentiate their parenting styles. Which is the basis to all misogynistic and homophobic thinking. It all derives back to ignorance and prejudice.
      There is nothing a father can do for a child that a mother can't, vice versa.

      @@reecye it’s not homophobic thinking. Never said they shouldn’t adopt. All I said was It’s not the same as being raised with a mom and a dad. The gay dad just said he has to ask other women to speak to her about her period. What about when she gets pregnant? She can’t even ask her dads for tips. Also unless she has a girly gay dad, she won’t experience certain things that women like to do. Yeah she can do them w her dad but it’s not the same experience.

      Tiger parenting makes me cower in fear. I experienced this first hand from my mum who abused me physically and mentally for years because she "cared" for me. I am who I am today not because of that style of parenting. In fact, she created a rebellious and excellent liar. But I will say I do contribute to society and on the surface my asian parents can say they are 'proud' of me.

      Years after asked my cousins if grandma ever told them something like this and turned out I was the only one 😃
