I am not opposed to the belt or even using a switch for that matter but for me personally 4 years old is too young for that kind of punishment. If the kid were 10 or 11 I would be more understanding but 4 is way too young.
Part of the punishment is the kid understanding what they did and why they are being punished. I know neither of my kids were capable of those understandings at 4. They only thing they will know at 4 is they are being hurt.

The first big word I learned as a toddler was incorrigible. I got punished but never hit.
When I was about 10 or 11 I got in a fight and broke this kid's nose. His mother showed up at our front door with her son in tow. Mr mother said her son couldn't possibly have done that or I was probably defending myself. As she closed the door, I thought to myself that I had dodged that bullet at which point WHAM! She had a rolled up newspaper in her hand and she belted me on the back of my head. She never said a word but I got the message.

Just because everyone has been hit, doesn't mean it's okay.
Cris Carter had a great message today on ESPN.

ETA: He's sadly correct. If you want to shame these guys, take them away from the game. It's unfortunately what they care for the most, so penalize them where it hurts the most.

When they were 4 years old?!? If so , sorry to say, your parents were sick *cks.
I was spanked often, threatened with the belt often, but I was at least old enough (7 or 8 plus) to know I did something wrong.
Did you get beat as a 4 year old?

To leave marks on a 4 year old child? That's pure anger not discipline.
that wasnt my question.. i asked how many had gotten swatted at all. dont know why you would feel the need to discipline a 4 year old that much.. i would think people over 40-50 were more likely to have grown up in a time where the discipline levels were much more severe than what kids go thru today

Not hard for Charles to make a fool of himself
I agree with you on that.
Great comment. Four years old is waaayyy too young for the switch or belt or any other object

Barkley and Jim Rome made that pregame show WATCHABLE today. That show is awful. Tony Gonzalez looks like a deer in the headlights on live TV. Bart Scott is a moron. The show puts people to sleep. They reason Barkley was there is not to talk about AP or Rice, this was a tryout. CBS needs a shot of energy on that show and they tried new things today. Rome and Barkley might be weekly fixtures and get full time roles on that show. And that show needs it

This is entirely my opinion, but I always associate kids getting whipped with their parents being lazy. I think it takes way more effort for a parent to establish a punishment, and truly enforce it to the end. And a byproduct of that is you are demonstrating to your kids that violence isn't a solution to problems.

I agree with everything you are saying. However it could be the greatest show in the world and still have a difficult time taking viewers away from Fox.
LOL if the NFL pre-game show needs Barkley than they are not as strong as I think they are. Barkley made himself look like a total fool. Or do also think whipping a child of 4 in no big deal and a southern thing?

Charles Barkley does an NFL pregame show? I stopped watching pregame shows for any sports years ago. I'm thinking Jimmy 'the Greek' Snyder might have still been doing them when I last watched. That being said I always thought 'Sir Charles' would make a good tight end.

It's a pretty common southern thing. A guy on my FB put that his parents made him pick it off the tree when he got his. :noidea:
