4chan wouldn't exist. Oh and just for reference, "spare the rod spoil the child" does NOT mean hit your kid. It's a biblical reference to shepherding your children and providing them guidance. The rod is a shepherds staff in that sense. Meaning don't give them guidance and they will be ruined as people.

Proverbs 22:15. Foolishness is in the heart of children. But the rod of correction will drive it far away Again, this is a reference to discipline. Many other versions of the Bible use the word discipline not correction also. The "Rod" was a reference to a 3ft piece of oak limb that shepherds used to protect their flock from wolves, as well as self defense. But the reference is used many times as symbolism for righteousness, morality, lawfulness etc.

Man i was making flash animations for 6 months back in 2002-2003. My 6th animation got featured on the front page and i was excited. This was when shit like "there she is!" And "the waterlollies" were out so for a kid using snes sprites i was totally outclassed. My dad grounded me for two weeks for falling asleep while the movie uploaded and since he wouldnt pay for an extra ethernet cord i had to use dial up. It tied up the phone line and thanks to that he missed a call from his boss asking him to work overtime. My dad made fun of me for video games, yugioh, reading, and animating. I dont think if he was more supportive i wouldnt have found 4chan stuff funny, but im pretty sure i wouldnt have been so ashamed of every hobby i had that i would try to hide it for years only to share that part of my life with ppl on 4chan.

Idk man, dads are weird, mine was somewhat supportive of what I did and even push me to try stuff (mainly because I was a shut in who would come from school and just fuck around in my computer for literally hours) but still never really showed any emotional connection with neither me or my brother outside of him being impressed of stuff I did, I never heard a "Im proud of you" or even an "I love you" and it really affected me, constantly trying to earn his words, but always ending up on nothing, until I just stopped trying and did my own thing by myself. From that point onward I just didn't even bother, I'd do everything without him knowing and later on developed that "cringe" feeling when you are "caught" watching something you like that people didn't know about you and it sucks the fact I have a dificulty to tell people I love that I love then because it makes me fear I will become my father, which is most people's fear, but what really terrifies me about it isn't the part of becoming him but being unable to break that detatchment my dad had with me with my own son, being unable to make them feel loved and cared for, it terrifies me the fact they could become me, a sad, depressed guy who in his 20 years of life hasn't accomplished anything, his life is falling apart and can't even face the adult world because no one gave him the tools to be prepared...

It's amazing how many people forget that children are in fact children.

that is why they need discipline, they cannot tell right from wrong nor what is appropriate in specific circumstances that is why you have to teach them the right way and punish them when they do something wrong so they do not repeat their mistake twice, anon is raising the kid as some feral beast with no discipline.

Anon perhaps may not be teaching his child correctly. But from this case, it seems like he's just not losing his shit over minor inconveniences. Like the kid dropping his plate for example. Accidents happen and you don't lose your shit over it. Unless they were perhaps running with it, which you have told them not to, and they dropped it like they usually do when they run with food.

there is only one variable that matters wether one is strone enkugh to withstand discipline or not, and weakness must not be tolerated and would not be tolerated in my family, some have broken because of that but not me. there is nobody tk blame but your own weakness. it give you anxiety? i call that being weak you have functional autism? who cares if you are strong enough you will be fine. your behavior encourages mental and emotional weakness, please refrain from doing that. also i am in my mid 20s and if you spoke to me in my teens i would have agreed with you at least partially but not anymore.

Dropping food is one thing that shit happens.

You’re still making things up to justify abuse. Point to me where it says anon doesn’t bother correcting the kid, cause the only thing he says is “Let the kid be autistic”. You know, the thing you’re supposed to do with autistic children. Accept that they’re autistic and let them do so as long as it’s not damaging. Being clumsy with a plate and singing are not that.

Reply

Ck_shock@reddit

"Let him be autistic or whatever." Is what he says ,this doesn't state that the child is autistic. More so that the child is acting autistic/acting out, not that he is. This infers that the kid could just be acting, you know, like a kid and doing stupid kid things. Nor have I ever said the kid needs to be beat simply corrected. But it would seem a lot of people on here think correction means beating ,instead of teaching. Also idk where you get this "your suppose to let them be autistic" If anything, a quick Google search will show that's just plan wrong and that they actually need structured discipline. Or else you get real-life versions of a lot of the ones you read about in green texts like these.

You need to learn contexts if that’s not what you meant. The basic telling a kid to go to bed is one thing, but it sounds like you agree with anons parents when you phrase things like that. These are two examples. He probably parents them fine in other ways if these are the kids biggest sins.

Kid is 9 and the parents think punishment is acceptable. In the examples anon gives, the kid wasn’t being malicious. Punishment for mistakes or inappropriate behavior for a kid that age is completely insane. A stern reprimand and quick correction is all you need to set them straight. Punishing a kid that age is like punishing a dog. It won’t understand why it’s being punished, only that the person they are supposed to trust is suddenly hurting them.

His son will hate him because he never taught him the discipline an adult needs to be minimally functional

Yeah, he will once the parent is out of the equation, but at that point the parent will have done their job. Even if they get traumatized from it, they'll be alive to fix it themselves later on in life, so long as you remain a stern authority figure that causes fear down to their bones they'll have a solid base to unfuck themselves once they have the critical thinking not to fuck up on their own. Boogeymaxx dadnons, nowadays it's really easy for children to become exposed to things their smooth developing brains aren't ready for, become the thing they fear the most and occupy their idle thoughts that would otherwise go to drugs, porn or anything that has nothing to do with developing an useful skill, be whatever that is, so they can fend for themselves out there. They'll hate you for life, but that's the badge of honor of parenting, never let their pent-up anger make you doubt for a moment you did the right thing, because it's thanks to you their cries and rage come from the comfy chairs of their successful jobs and entrepreneurship.

Bout time I run into someone else who understands how to be a dad and what it's abt I'm tired of people thinking being a dad is abt instilling a sense of love and being wanted in their home its abt fear its always been abt fear they do what you tell them to do or they face what there moat terrified of in life which needs to be you once that happens you prove them right

Even without having your own kid, it's rough when you think of the times where you were reprimanded for being a normal child. Then you cook some veggies for yourself and genuinely enjoy them, buy something from a vending machine, then you treat a kiddo well. Really hope this is real, because it's so lovely to read someone being better.

I found myself in a step parent role in my 40s, and just got a nugget of my own. Holy shit so many parents are just fucking awful for no damn reason. Everybody in my house is autistic, and the kids can be weird little guys if they want. Like damn, just let kids exist and fulfill their needs. This shit isn't that difficult. So why did so many of our parents fucking suck?

There really are insanely difficult autistic kids though. The profile is called Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA). It is a living hell.

There's a fine line in loving your child and not properly educating them. All my friends are now having kids and I am being prepared too for the same (hopes) But sometimes I wonder what's the apt behaviour. Like a kid running in a restaurant is okay, but a kid screaming their lungs out in restaurant is not ? How do you all make the decision what to do ? I am terrified because not educating kids is also an abuse

He is probably still doing things he doesn't realize are still mildly abusive, but the improvement is so vast he is 100% crushing it. When his son is older, hopefully he culls the last vestiges of abuse from his parenting, and the cycle can start all over again when anon's grandchild faces some terrible trauma that he takes out on his children.

I'm really happy for anon. As someone with difficult parents and is also on the spectrum, I've always just wanted to do this kind of this because it's not hard if you know how to actually parent instead of gaslighting and blaming the oldest child in the house for your problems. I wish anon the best and his parents can go eat a glass sandwich
