I am sure those of that grew up in the parents smacking us era experienced the lesson where if you hit your sibling, your mom would smack your hand hard and ask "How does that feel? You like it, then don't do it to your brother/sister." You cried and had snot bubbles for a couple minutes... but that usually stopped the hitting for a good stretch of time...lol.
If you watch the uncensored version of this video, they were talking about defecating on this woman's face, pissing on her, encouraging her to kill herself, flicking at her arm flap telling her she's a disgusting pig... big words, maybe they need to see how she felt. Giving them a good sit down, a group hug, and taking away their X-box for the weekend isn't going to drive the point home.
If you are against our suggested type of punishment, you must be adamantly against boot camps which judges send juvenile offenders to in the US. Those guys are professionally trained bullies, that demoralize them and will make them cry.

I grew up like that as well... FYI... I obviously won't go into it because its a public forum, but same as probably what I see lots of "old guard" described. I'm in favour of parents disciplining their children by spanking, don't get me wrong; I'm not in favour of dumb mob mentality and bullying to fix bullying.
Boot camps, no problem, because they are being bullied by by people who are there to do a job. Society... is dumb, and it will be abused by mob mentality.
