Ok boomer.
Seriously. How old is the person in this image? 30? Born in 1995, shopping with mom in the store in 2000 at 5 years old and getting beaten? People acting like 2000 is 1965.
E: ITT everyone got beaten.
I'm happy you had a better childhood than most
That’s not the case, I can assure you. Corporal punishment was doled out in school and at home.
I was born in 1991. My parents regularly doled out spankings for misbehavior. But they did it in private.
I mean, my parents were definitely using corporal punishment on me in 2005, and atleast in their social circle it was considered normal, expected even to the point that no one batted an eye when it happened in public.
