When I get in trouble(mostly at school) my dad whips me with a leather belt. Not onlt that but he also leaves very nasty bruises and cuts on my thighs(the location where he uses the belt on)and he usually does 5-20 swings depending on my situation. Is this normal for him to do? I already know that HIS dad used to do that to him but not as painful.

      Well now...hold on. Maybe the child shouldn't be getting in trouble at school, and he won't have to get licked by the belt.

      I'm surprised you see it that way.

      Im all for spanking children, not beating them to a bloody wept, but parents need to be firmer with their children.

      It should be the "threat and humiliation" of an ass whooping that keeps them from not misbehaving. Not the automatic response either,but be case appropriate

      now if the Kid keep acting up then it apparently isn't working and they need to change punishment.

        I can see you got down-voted some, but let it be known I thumbed you back up. I can't help but think when I see bratty little kids running around that all they need is a good whupping. They'll shape up real quick. I know, cause it worked on me when I was little. :P

          I agree with you and shug on this. Just causing bruises isn't horrible and would probably benefit kids more than the coddling "affluenza" bullshit we see today. Real gray area here, but I still agree with you guys.

        Yeah but the guy is being bruised and is probably an older kid, shug. I'm not against corporal punishment but this is abuse.

    That's a bit excessive but kids are definitely lacking discipline these days. Its maddening to see how they misbehave all over the place and the parents just seem to ignore it. For fucks sake people, get your wild little bastards under control!!!

    This is abuse. I would report it.
    Abuse only teaches violence and fear.

    That's called child abuse. Please, get help, and call someone to make sure that your dad doesn't do this to you anymore.

    I guess you aren't getting the idea there, are you sparky? He won't have to use the belt on you, if you don't keep getting in trouble. I doubt seriously he does it for his own amusement. We have a whole society of spoiled, self entitled children raised without enough parental supervision and control; spare the rod and spoil the child.
    Straighten up and follow your dad's rules and you won't have to come on here whining about how bad your punishment hurts.

      Then how come it's "so horrible" if I punch my girlfriend in the face when she refuses to cook me dinner? She's misbehaving.

        We might believe you have the plastic blow up girl friend, and no one cares if you punch her, though I can't imagine she's a very good cook.

          Well, it's better than that plastic inflatable boat that you play with in the public pool. You actually believe it's a real ship too!

    I can't believe people still think this shit is okay.

    When I was a kid, I was aware that some of my school mates were being physically punished by their parents. They ran wild as a result. They've become the sort of people I don't want to stop and chat with in the street, because you never know when they're going to start screaming obscenities at their children.

    My siblings and I were taught manners and respect from an early age. We didn't need to be abused to have that instilled into us. We all had good grades and my siblings now have important jobs and well behaved kids. I have A job and I've been entirely independent for a long time, so I don't think I've done too badly.

    It makes me sick to think of how many people will follow in their parents' footsteps, thinking abuse is the only way they can 'control' their children. Disgusting.

    To the OP, what your dad is doing is not okay. Please tell somebody who can help you.

    You, I figure are a guy, and you get in trouble in alot school. That 'trouble' maybe needs your dad to help you with. First by talking to you about it and doing so each and every time you get in trouble. But you do not say that he fails to understand you AND you do not say he fails to talk to you. You only complain that he hits you when you get in trouble. This does not sound like you are being honest. You & your dad have to talk to each other about the troubles. If you messed up, he needs to spank you right and spank you until you cry and cry for real and he should do so each and every time you get in trouble. After the spanking, the two of you need to talk about your desire to not get in trouble and you have to say what you will do to not get so in trouble. He should then spank you some more to emphasize the points. Maybe you will learn to behave. OTHERWISE, I figure, it is not what you have said but something else that bothers you, maybe only including the obviously useless whacks with the belt. :-)

    5 to 20 isn't bad, but should only be on your bottom and not leave bruises.

    He is abusing you. I urge you to tell someone of authority like a teacher, doctor or guidance counsellor (School Therapist).
