[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are the pro-hitting people good if it’s a stranger? A teacher? Where’s the line on this permissiveness to hit children?[/quote]
really? How dumb are you? Would you be ok with a total stranger at the park scolding your child and putting them in a time out and the naughty chair?

This is like saying punching a kid in the face is the same as swatting a kid on the butt.

As someone who was actually abused as a kid, your comparisons are offensive and ridiculous.[/quote]

A teacher can absolutely give my kid a time out. But if a teacher laid a finger on my child I would immediately pursue legal action. Because no one can hit my kid— including me.

So for the pro-hitters, again, can a teacher hit your kid? If not why not?[/quote]
that's not what you said? You said "Are the pro-hitting people good if it’s a stranger?", and yes, you included "teacher", but you started with stranger.

Teachers aren't family members.   A grand"parent" can help raise a child. If OP doesn't want her MIL to raise her child, then don't have her babysit. Simple.

But, IMO OP is making a big deal out of something that's really not that big of a deal in terms of that child's life. [/quote]

Teachers spend a lot more time with kids than babysitters do. And you wouldn’t want them hitting your kid. You may not agree with it or understand it but that’s the same feeling— that this person should not hit my kid— that motivates the non-hitting people here to say MIL was out of line. [/quote]
