This is what happens when you don't spank your kids.

To be clear, I'm not talking about beating the crap out of your kids on the daily. I am talking about a time as children when we know we were just ridiculously out of line, and as a result we got a thorough ass-whooping. We remember this flogging because we learned our lesson and never repeated that transgression. The older guys know what I'm talking about, many of you younger guys have no clue, and almost all women have no frame of reference. It's not a disorder, it's just an overgrown child who has never been taken down a peg

I know exactly what you mean. I learned from an early age that if dad said: "If you don't behave yourself, I will take you to the truck" that he meant if I didn't shut my mouth and do as I was told, I was getting a spanking. Dad always swore he would never use anything harder than his bare hand on me or my brother, and he held to it. Mom was the one who threatened to use rulers and switches. Never dad.

Bare hand? I've gotten the belt on the bare ass about two dozen separate occasions, with about 5-10 strikes per whoopin'; now that I'm a functioning adult member of society I can say with ease that all incidents were justified.

EDIT: Just to clarify I was out of fucking control, age 12 I had under my belt;

Arson

Breaking & Entering

Theft under $5000

Possession of a deadly weapon

Various forms of criminal mischief and vandalism.

And it only got worse as I went through my teens, I smartened up at around 20, my father never gave up on me and now that I'm 29, I have a decent house / mortgage, nice new truck, good paying job with pension and benefits and a healthy relationship with my old man.

Though it's true that after I'd get a whooping I'd just try harder not to get caught next time, so it's hard to say if it worked as a punishment, but I do know one thing, grounding didn't work and if they(my parents) had done nothing I'd likely be in jail right now.

Dad spanked when he knew we were being shit heads, and it wasn't hard, just enough to send a message, and I hated it but it worked. Kids. Need. Discipline.

Nope, you just think that way because you were spanked or "disciplined" as a child, and so you need to rationalize it as something good. I used to have the same problem.

In essence, "discipline" boils down to doing what your parents want you to do, and not doing anything they don't. For example, they don't want you to inconvenience them, and so you get punished for doing that.

As a random example, maybe they set dinner time at 1800 sharp, and then punish you for not being on time or not wanting to eat or whatever, just because they find it inconvenient.

You see, there's no reason why you'd genuinely need to eat at that precise time. Maybe you're just not hungry yet? Maybe you want to do something else instead? There's nothing wrong with that. The world doesn't end and food can be stored in a fridge etc and you can just take it out when you do want it.

But if you don't eat "when it's time", your parents perceive a need for Discipline and punish you, even though you haven't actually done anything wrong.

Look into "peaceful parenting" if you need more information.

The last time I mentioned this exact same sentiment some fucktard told me it was "creepy". Fucking dumb bitch.

It's not even spanking that's missing, it's basic negative reinforcement when the child does something inappropriate. A lot of these people grew up in homes where they could do no wrong. Fail a test? It's the teacher's fault. Lose something important? Someone stole it and it's the thief's fault. Didn't finish your chores? You just weren't feeling well or are depressed or something.

Kids get away with murder. Even parents just telling them no and to stop being a little bitch would prevent this. You don't even need to spank them to see an improvement, because it's gotten that bad. This adult temper tantrum disorder thing is just kids who grew up never even being told "no" being told "no". And they can't comprehend not getting their way, so they do all they know, which is to throw a fit.

This is the product of a generation coming of age that never got put in their place as a kid. You should get some sort of reward for smacking an "adult" across the face that has one of these infantile episodes.

Look, I gotta be real. My aunt and my mom are just like this and possibly my other aunt that I never see. All on my moms side. They are psycho cunts who have a fucking meltdown if they don't get EXACTLY what they want and it literally takes every ounce of self control to not utterly and completely smack the fucking shit out of her when she acts like a petulant, stubborn, toddler. I know underneath all that is a hard working, dignified human being, but she makes a conscious decision to act like a spoiled fuckhead, and it's literally draining the life out of me. I wish I could die so I don't have to deal with the fallout of her stupidity.

No, this is just a product of cell phones being everywhere. Before that, this same behavior happened.

People suffered from a medically recognized affliction known as hysteria, and once it went out of vogue it simply vanished, or changed into something else. Before that it was brain fever, and quite a popular ailment after suffering ill news.
