You got beat until you were in your twenties? Thats actually really ed up...not on your panrets side but on yours. Im not saying fight them back but as some point during the mid to late teens one should learn how to dodge or divert the punches.

A lack of computer games, TV and deserts would probably have a lot more impact. |
Doesnt work on every kid this. I didnt like sweets when i was young (still dont), preferred books to tv and when my parents took away my video game discs i responded by learning how to code my own games :p At least they saw that as time well spent i guess:p |

What's the relevance of her being a Mormon to this? |
Was wondering the same thing.
Not saying the thread title is trying to make a malicious statement about all Mormons, but I don't understand why videos with titles like this exist. Are people trying to make blanket statement about large groups of people based on one member making a mistake? The world is full people people like this woman who do stupid things. |

And who says I haven't?.. the most they got away with after I turned 16 - 17 was a slap in the face/ kick in the butt, then I stop them. My dad hasn't hit me in a decade and my mom gave up after I got too strong, too tall for her to handle.
After every beat down, though, my mom would come to me crying and apologizing profusely. They both confessed to me a couple years ago that they should've never laid a finger on me, that it was wrong, and that they're sorry. I forgive them, of course. But I never understood it. |

well, clearly your parents were beating you into shape, not unlike a panel-beater and a classic car. |

I don't really think negative enforcement is that bad of an idea on kids: At least to an extent.
the airy fairy parenting of today is as silly as the psychotic violence and neglect that used to happen. As everyone said, kids aren't capable of rationalising their behaviour in some cases... i watched a tiny bit of the video, and he knew he did something wrong, and then lied about it, do you let it go there?
kids learn their behaviour from the parents (obivously)- this kid knew he was bad, and deserved to be repremanded (in the parents eye anyway), they understand physical denouncements on every level, is it really that bad? It works on animals.
I guess its a case of context, but i really don't think physical punishment is a bad idea for kids at all times. I think the super-liberal parents have raised the bunch of ****s who are now ruining the cities who think they're invincible, omnipotent super-men, when they're really s who never got corrected when they were bad as kids, and so have no concept of right and wrong.
coming from someone without much experience with kids (no doubt obviously :p ) |

There are much more consistent, rational and reasonable punishments than making the kid eat hot sauce and freezing him in a shower while loudly berating him for 3 minutes straight. An episode like that can be extremely psychologically traumatizing to a child.
That said, I don't find the punishment in the video to be extremely "abusive", and we don't get to see the video of later on, when mommy reminds the kid that she loves him very much, and hates acting like a troll, and tucks him into bed and reads him a story from the Mormon Bible to put his mind at ease as he drifts off to sleep. |

Haha indeed- I get the psychological effect, and I dont want to condone abuse, but isnt that the whole point of punishment, to an extent? :p |

When he awoke his friends noticed he spoke with a mixture of Irish and American accents, sometimes swapping between the two mid sentence. This was the first recorded example of dual foreign accent syndrome. |
Hoh.

Again following a stroke her normal Geordie accent was transformed and has been variously described as resembling a Jamaican, as well as a French Canadian, Italian and a Slovak accent |
FAO: Lira, please elaborate what speech like this would sound like. A rough demonstration is enough. |
