If you think it's okay to hit your kid with a belt, or anything else, you're dumb as fuck. Violence is not a good parenting method and numerous studies can back this up.

Also, there is a lot of middle ground between letting your kid walk all over you and HITTING THEM WITH A FUCKING BELT. Read the post again, the kid is terrified of their own dad. No-one should have to live in fear of their own parents.

So call me cringe all you want, you're advocating child abuse.
