Abusive Parents
- Thread starter Toxic
- Start date
This is a debate room, so lets actually debate. Parents have the right to determine the right amount of tolerance on things children do. If they do overdo this, they'll be taken to custody. I believe some hitting (like a spank for youngins) and yelling if kids absolutely aren't listening, but try not to overdo either.
Abusive parents probably were abused as a child themselves, and maybe they're doing what they only know to do and react. Depending on the abuse, it could vary greatly. However, I will admit that parents who abuse their children legitimately are absolutely a disgrace to humanity itself and need help/counseling.

I Agree. There are many ways of getting kids to understand about their behavior. Hitting and yelling don't solve anything, you are only making them to do the same thing back to you. Most parents don't know what their kids want though, that's the problem and they wonder why their kids would run away from home. You can't call your house home if you don't feel save in it.
Discipline is one thing, but look at Mary Bell's mother. Mary Bell was forced to give blow jobs to men as a kid, her mother kept trying to feed her pills. I don't think that was merely to discipline her child. Plus she ended up killing people. If a parent abuses his/her child because of their own personal issues, because they had a hard day at work and have been drinking too much or something, that's not the child's fault. They did nothing to deserve it.
I wouldn't call my mum abusive, but she had some anger management issues, and she used to wonder why I was such an angry kid. Now she understands better, that my behaviour reflected hers. It's a downward spiral.

People enjoy the sex and hardly think about the consequences as in getting pregnant, become a young parent, and etc. The newly unprepared parents usually become a pretty abusive parents especially when they could not even take care of themselves.
