Question by *Laura*: Opinions on “spanking is abuse” parents?
What is your opinion of the people that say “spanking your child is abuse” “I’m going to call CPS on you if I see you spank that child” “my child can do what they want,they’re their own person” etc and end up with drug addicted pregnant teens,and want to blame the REST of society for their children being how they are? Don’t you agree that those parents should be the most to blame for how their children are? I mean obviously they’ve taught them no morals,no self value,nothing of that sort,not a difference between right and wrong. Your opinions? I think spanking is 100% fine if it’s done in the right way,with the right reasons behind it,not just because you’re mad at your child. It’s done to teach a lesson,not to abuse a child. HUGE difference between spanking and abuse,and by not spanking/teaching your children right/wrong,you’re allowing THEM To become the abusers to someone else because they don’t know any better.

I think when a parent spanks their child its for a good reason. It keeps them steady and out of jail.!

Laura-
I thought you got this all out yesterday. Why still ranting today?
I personally do not spank. I have no children of my own- and regardless of a parent’s discipline techniques, I feel I have no right to lay my hand on another person’s child- EVER.

You lose privacy. Your history is combed and any indiscretions blown out of proportion.
It is very easy to lose touch with reality. Alot of famous people are molded into the people they are, or coerced into doing/saying things they may not completely agree with simply to further their name/fortune.
Answer by Ali12147
You need to go along the lines of the fact that celebrities are made celebrities by corporations whose main objective is to make money. These corporations do not question the actions or the message of these celebrities who have a large segment of the public following them.
e.g. the rap movement and its insistence on rebelliousness.
Check out these links, they should be of help.

Answer by lazyslacker013
The DEA website would be a good one. Also law enforcement statistics would help you as well as prison population numbers. If you speak a foreign language that may help as well, especially spanish since that would let you read up on what’s going on in Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Bolivia and all those countries.
