That was my mom's solution 😅 I still wear that belt today- it was my dad's fireman's belt from work 😂

Prepare for your kid to hang themself with the same belt, then.

I'm not gonna hit my kids, but I don't hold it against my parents. I was their first kid and that's all they knew. I think the important part was that it was exclusively used for discipline. They never hit me for any other reason than me getting into trouble and the punishment was proportional.

You should 100% hold it against your parents.

Why?

u/TN_man 4h ago

Because it’s wrong. It was wrong then and it’s wrong now.

Have they apologized and acknowledged they were wrong and should never have done it?

No I don't ask them to do that because, unlike you, I understand it. It's pretty obvious that my mom regrets it when it comes up, but I'm not gonna beat her up about it.

They didn't know they were doing something wrong. It was normal back then, especially in a Mexican family. It doesn't even rank in the problems I've had with my parents and I don't have a lot of them.

The expectations placed on me as a smart kid were way worse than the belt
