30 Incredibly Kind Acts Pets Did For Their Owners That Prove A Pet's Love Has No Limits

Good kitty! Smart human to get the message! Our family dogs always growled at my late sister's fiance, and the cats avoided him. She wouldn't listen to them. Drove us nuts. Animals run to my hubby, so I figure I got a good one.

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

Yes, we do need to be taught. A swat on the butt is a swat on the butt. Being hit with a two-inch-wide leather belt is abuse. Get perspective, please, and FYI, we were taught to smile and say we weren't abused. B/c then we'd get hurt if we told the truth. So allow us a very different poV, please.

Whoever downvoted @AuntMessy? While abusive behavior can be 'handed down', it depends on individuals. Many people who were abused never raise a hand in anger; some bbecome abusers, as my sister did. Most sufferers of PTSD are portrayed as homicidal, but we're in fact incredibly prone to *suicide*. From personal experience? I'd say about 75% of abused kids grow up to NOT HURT OTHERS. We're messed up, but we're not violent.

Sounds familiar, Aunt Messy. And, yeah, I do believe the brain scans. I thought that was clear? I referred to self-diagnosis b/c people love to self-diagnose, and it's dangerous. Oh, and it was my sister who had me urinating blood. Real fun, ain't it?

NEVER mess with the professional. we were allowed our time for our family-camera-type pics, but the pro shots were "over there" and we just had to do our best and it was fine by us.

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

Precisely@GeneralZod. My dad figured he was not as bad as he COULD be, so I shouldn't be upset. And, yeah, you can see deep scarring on my MRIs. It's crazy how "you're not bleeding or bones broken" means it's not "bad".

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

Uh, actually, as someone with an MD? YES IT DOES EQUAL BAD. B/c brain patterns established like that are still setting groundwork for future trouble. Trauam is, by medical definition, a negative outcome. Get an MD and talk to me again, please.

Or being clumsy (normal for a child) or being ignorant of the world (normal for a child).... Get a grip. Preferably not on a paddle or belt, but on reality.

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

You're an idiot. "Spanking" is often defined as "hammering on a kid until they're terrified to move in your presence". I pray God you don't have children. If so, I pray someone calls protective services for them.

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

Jrizzy Jay, say that to my face. Please. After seeing what I have on my X-rays to remember why I shouldn't be clumsy, why I shouldn't ever speak up, why I shouldn't be disobedient, why i shouldn't feel anything I wasn't told to feel... You can see the soft tissue scarring in me and it's been 45 years since the belt hit me. Have a nice day.

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

I feel that so much. I was four when that was my dad. Many hugs.

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

Same here. My first suicidal attempt was age 11. Living in terror scars us, and shapes our neurological pathways, quite literally at times.... My dad was mimicked by my older sister, so I got to fear them both. (She was 5 years older, so signifiantly larger/etc.). My dad didn't spare the rod, and it spoiled the childhood. I feel for all of you. And being unable to live outside fear.... we're bully magnets as if that's not bad enough at home, y'know?

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

Thank you.

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

Spanking and abuse are separate. A spank was "one swat of hand on butt with a sharp talk about why". Abuse was "throttled against wall". I KNOW THE DIFFERENCE. And, y'know what? they *both* preprogrammed my brain from age 2 onward to live in terror of getting anything wrong, ever, so that I was too terrifie dto move, speak, lest it make the pain happen. But NEVER SELF-DIAGNOSE. 1. Even doctors shouldn't and 2. you certainly do understand rules. I never acted out, FYI. I tried suicide instead. Let's chat about that, too. And that's all I got.

Yep. The exodus has begun as is, and without pay, the stress, the lack of care, the lack of consideration from their bosses.... burnout happened last year. Now? it's "dig a tunnel until we escape" mentality where I'm at.

Leo Domitrix I am so sorry for what you went though. I may be "dumb" in the eyes of such a brilliant person like Jrizzy Jay (**sarcasm**) but your trama is exactly why the way of physical discipline needs to be stopped

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

I thought I was reading about myself I was spanked severely when I was 5 why I can't remember but every slap of her hand on my butt I remember. I remember her putting my brother into his room and then my mother disappeared and a monster came she mad me strip my bottom clothes off so it was skin on skin I remember pleading with her not to but she kept on and on my life was destroyed that afternoon I was bullied at school my first suicide attempt I was 15 and what followed was a life of fear and bad decisions I remember that day and 10 years ago I just didn't go back to visit her she is old and frail. I have 2 daughters and I never lifted a finger to any of them

I had a boyfriend, Dan, who was married and not good for me. I moved away. I got my FFB (Forever Fur Baby) when I moved. Heather was a gorgeous white cat with blue eyes. Dan came by eventually. While we were sitting on the couch, Heather, would bat him on the back of the head with her claws fully extended. She did NOT like him. She did that to only him! I did not see him again after that. I figured the cat had more sense than I did.

It's the second option :-)

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

Both my brother and I were spanked and sometimes more we both have depression and anxiety issues. I remember being so scared we would pee ourselves. My dad would always say this hurts me more than it hurts you, he believed he was doing the right thing but I can't say that it didn't vastly affect our emotional development and our relationship with him, I forgave because it's what he knew and it was well intentioned I don't know if my brother will ever truly forgive.

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

I was thinking "We were spanked, and we were fine." But actually, I wasn't fine. I was depressed and anxious by age 11, my first suicide attempt at 14. I grew up always afraid of other people's anger, afraid of contradicting or correcting people, unable to stand up for myself, afraid of asking for what I need, emotionally or materially. I wasn't fine. If you were spanked as a kid, you can probrably remember it; that gut clenching, shoulder tensing, heart sinking dread of "about to be spanked" then the lasting resentment, grief and humiliation. That feeling is what harms a child, I think, not the relatively brief sting of a minor spanking. We forget the vast majority of the accidental bumps and bruises of childhood. That gut-level fear and dread that sticks with you, as does the feeling of loss of the parent's love, and positive regard. That is what's damaging.

I have a one year old cat named Onyx. I started fostering him, his mom, and his five siblings at the beginning of quarantine, when the babies were a day old, and we kept two of them, him and his brother, Jynx. So, about a month ago I had a really bad mental health period (I changed the dose of some meds around January and they'd been messing me up for three months at that point) and I was going for a walk at around 8-9 pm, mostly crying and getting very close to wanting to unalive myself. I sat down on a bench around a block away from my house and I heard a small meow and my baby boy running up to me. I picked him up, and he immediately started purring (he does this a lot) so I took him home. He saved me that night, and will jump onto my lap whenever I fall back into those thoughts (I'm doing a lot better now). Even as I type this, he's sitting on me, watching my computer screen. I love this beautiful boy, and I quite literally owe him my life.

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

tbh I never thought of spanking that way, I just of it as a discipline but really when I look back at what I used to feel when I got spanked, all I see is fear, sadness, and just wanting to scream out loud about my feelings, this is be another reason why I don't want kids...out of fear that I might hit them and damage their growth. now all I see when I hear spanking is another form and excuse of abuse...

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

I never understood why hitting a child with a weapon (belt) was OK, but if we were to do that our fellow adults it would be felony assault. "Spare the rod, spoil the child" is a horrible saying. If the only way you can discipline is through violence and fear then you are a really questionable parent.

Spanking Your Kids Can Affect Their Brain Development And This Psychologist Explains It On TikTok

I can speak for myself. I was traumatized by spanking (although I had loving parents), and even as an adult I have to fight my self-preserving instinctual reaction to flee everytime I'm forced into a face-to-face verbal "fight". My heart jumps frantically as if I'm being physically attacked. I've been using breathing techniques everytime I need to defend myself against a confrontational person. I even fight back tears (although I'm not a crier), how stupid is that!! This fear of conflict really messes with my ability to defend myself and take my stand. I can't even think straight, until I calm down / distance myself: I instinctively just focus on peace-keeping at all costs.

I'm an architectural photographer, for about 15 years, primarily Baroque cathedrals. Pretty niche. Took me years to get good. There is NO WAY I'd interfere with a wedding photographer - way too weird and intimidating for me. Lol. I'd just have to punch Uncle Bob in the kisser and beat him over the head with my Leica. You have the patience of a Saint.
