There is NO humour with the use of corporate punishment in the comics. So often I have seen parents who physically punish their children, far more harsher than they would admit. It wasn’t so much what a child have done, as the parent’s anger, frustration, and along with it the entitlement, to take it out on their own flesh and blood. One or two had even ghoulishly bragged how hard they hit their kids. Some adults like to think the today’s children are so out of control, that is coming from their own self indulging, judgemental loathing and contempt. Some parents who complain their children are hyperactive, they themselves have certain issues they are in bad need to resolve within themselves instead of projecting it all upon their sons and daughters. Some others claimed it was all for their protection and own good, when in reality the young people are to live in a fearful and oppressed manner on their behalf. As for those who claimed they had been spanked and turned out fine are just fooling themselves. Along with it the callous begrudgement toward those who had been adversely affected, the close minded toward the alternative methods of discipline and the fact there are people who never had a hand laid upon them when they were young yet had done just as well. Not to mention, the way they want for anyone else to no other except be miserable as themselves. It’s one thing about so called tough love, but abuse and violence can not be seen as a part of norm when it comes to being in any relationship. Besides children are human, they do make mistakes and can’t be perfect all the time, just like grownups. It is the adults who are more capable of having control and they should know much better.

I guess that if he could speak, he’d say, “Mess up again, and I’ll eat you.”
