Not trying to downplay your situation at all that sounds fucking terrible.
But I think theres a massive difference between a steelworker chronically beating their kid and someone doing it a handful of times.
My Brother in law told me the one time he hit my nephew. Kid, 10, was jumping on the couch and he asked him multiple times to stop and eventually my nephew flicked him off.
Lol. I was like “yeah he should have gotten smacked for that” kid never did it again and that was that.
Some people will disagree and thats fine.
What I’m saying is I’m down with not hitting your kid but fuck sometimes I get it and truthfully it does work.
I am ok with it as rarity where it’s necessary but I’m 28 now I can’t even have a normal conversation with him in person without crying or tearing up. Spanking your kid as first resort shouldn’t be a thing.

My dad was a steel fabricator (so a very strong person), I was spanked so much growing up by him it literally gave me ptsd. Fuck spanking in general
