No, it is NOT appropriate to spank a 14 year old. go see a guidance counselor at school so that you and your family can get some help. Good Luck, sweetie.

If you're talking about kinky stuff, as long as you're both okay with it, it's fine. If you're talking corporeal punishment as a form of disciplining children, I'm okay with that too as long as it's not excessive and abusive.

Decide that that is it and seek help from an abuse center if it is physical or emotional abuse. If the "beaten" you are referring to is a parents discipline and it is not abusive, figure out where you stepped out of line and correct it.

nope, sorry.  Unless the corporal punishment leaves bruises.

Your weight is fine.  You are NOT fat.  Please see a counselor or a someone you trust about your abuse.  You should not be beaten up!  Beating a child up for any reason is unacceptable.  Their abuse should be reported...seek help ASAP.

My husband has done that to me and it is not pleasant. If you do that be prepared to get smacked.

I would'nt worry about it. As long as you dont give her a reason to beat you up you have nothing to worry about. If you are worried about her beating you up it only could mean that you could possibly have intentions on hurting her. Just be good to her and dont hurt her and you wont ever have to worry about her 'wiping the floors' with you. Good luck

That depends on what you consider abuse. If you mean torturing a pet, I think most states procecute that crime pretty harshly already. If you are talking about something idiotic like Whole Foods not carrying live lobsters because it is inhumane to the lobsters then you are way off base.

newstudent is right. You should report the abuse right away to the police, Social Services, CPS, a teacher. Whoever is appropriate for the type of abuse should be notified. There is NEVER a reason for any type of abuse!

That would be a NO!  It is illegal to restrain someone unless they are trying to hurt themselves or others.

In US, we can end up in jail if hurt a kid physically, it's considered as child abuse. We punish naughty kid by suspending them, give no permissions to leave house or even bedroom, taking away their allowance, phonecalls, their favorite things such as games, comics, movies, etc. If cannot handle on our own, seek professional help from experts or some institutions, a sort of military school is an option.

A legal guardian can delegate the right to discipline the child to his/her spouse, but nowadays hitting a child is often considered child abuse.  Simple spanking is probably all right depending on the age of the child and the severity of the punishment.

I think anytime you are doing anything to your child in Anger to hurt them it's abuse.  The easy way to judge would be to think to yourself do I want to hurt or help my child.\n\nMore specificly an occasional spanking when children respond to nothing else is OK.\n\nA backhand to the kid for a bad grade or even calling your kid stupid is Bad.
