The Rules

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

Slaps are what my mother gave me. My father wouldn't bother with something like simple slaps.

There's never any reason to hurt your own children. Not one. Parents are supposed to protect their children.

Sure, but that's not at all what we are discussing here. We are discussing the perception and overall approval of corporal punishment in conservative cultures.

And while methods that can actually inflict permanent damage to children would be perceived negatively even in conservative cultures, slaps would be approved by most.
