@john_megalli: The comments went wild, so let me clear this up. My dad was not a bad man, he was a great father and a great human being. He gave us discipline, resilience and a mindset to stop complaining and take responsibility. I miss him every day. #FatherSon #FamilyLegacy #Resilience #WorkEthic #FamilyValues
My mum was Aussie and I got flogged with the belt, spoon, hand, shoe 🤷🏼♀️😂

Totally agree with you European background. I like the discipline that was in still upon me on many occasions. Some so severe that an Aussie child would’ve put their parents in jail however I am a strong 80 year-old woman so grateful to a father who showed me how to be a strong woman I miss your dad. I don’t care if you were a bit naughty on me. I miss you so much. May you rest in peace and know that your three daughters are strong women thanks to you.

You excuse them too much, if they used their empathy brain, they would know better

needs a balance, like everything in life
too much belt, the child fears the parents more than loves

My old Boy used to give me the belt when I played up, but it taught me respect 💪

everyone defends their abusers bud. reality is you can discipline without violence. the reason kids today dont drink alcohol like we did when younger or abuse drugs as much is because they didn't have that trauma growing up

The belt or kettle coard was part of my childhood in the 70s and early 80s. You knew when your behaviour was unacceptable that was for sure! 😂

Take a look at our children now some terrific and so much straight out Ferrell they are built around the back of the legs of the arse didn’t hurt you. Your man wasn’t flogging. You just gave you enough to give you a warning. Bit of a sting toughen up. We might have a better society and if you think you’re on the right course now, who is the right people have dream their kids are that’s your opinion. I’ve got mine.
