Kelce family wash kids mouths out with soap

[Anonymous]

My mother threw me to the ground once when I was about 5.

I never forgot it.

Washing a kid's mouth with soap is abuse.

I think that Taylor Swift will regret getting mixed up with this family.

Definitely child abuse.

I grew up in a Catholic area many decades ago. Washing children's mouths with soap was common as was physical beatings with a leather belt. And worse occurred.

Absolutely constitutes child abuse.

Trashy people worthy of disdain.

Ive had my mouth washed out with soap as a child. My mother is a nut case. It was not effective.

Discipline takes creativity, empathy, and smart thinking. The Kelce family isn’t known for their intelligence. Easier to be physically abusive.

Why doesn’t this get them cancelled? It’s abuse. Obviously not as bad as other methods but this is disgusting and dominating.

Don’t have four children if you have to resort to sadistic s**t—and these people can afford all the help in the world!

Some posters think it’s either “let the kids walk all over you” or scare them and get physical. So many viable options in between

Who cares
Not my children

I’ve had 5 children and never done his. I can’t imagine it being necessary.
That said, my mom did this once to me! She wasn’t abusive. Very loving mother. It didn’t scar me or anything. I say this just because people are so quick to scream “abuse” that I worry it waters down actual cases of dangerous abuse.

Wonder how their sponsors at pottery barn kids feel about this association

My parents didn’t do this to their kids. I never did this to my kids. We’ve still managed to a turn out okay. These people are just lazy parents.

My mom used to wash my mouth out with a bar of soap. She physically restrained me, locked my head in place and shoved the bar into my teeth and mouth. This took many attempts and when I could cry, scream and yell, I cussed her out. I hated her for it.
