RE: The Many Harms of Spanking in Less than 200 Words

There are many other really broken things parents are still doing, like hiding their distress when they feel distressed (kids need to learn empathy), scolding kids for breaking or damaging accidentally things when they should just shrug it off and say "well that's just a thing" (materialism), considering every stanger in town like a creepy kidnapper and indiscriminately isolating kids from interaction with strangers (fear of strangers), refusing to acknowledge children's reasons for crying or throwing a tantrum (kids feel misunderstood by their own parents) or trying to coerce them in repressing their feelings and internalizing them, pretending that parents are always right (then kids lack critical thinking and skepticism), pretending that school / teachers / adults / school program shall never be questioned (then kids will just follow blindly authority), over emphasizing the important of success over happiness and purpose ... and the list goes on.
