Quote:I was disciplined to stop from misbehaving. Again, I got a few skin lashes, but it was deserved.

 

If you think i was abused, then wouldn't you assume I would have a criminal record, be in jail, or doing drugs?

That's not how any of this works. It's not saying corporal punishment = criminal record and drug user. It's saying that it increases the likelihood of those things. Some people that are abused will turn out just fine. Some people that aren't won't turn out fine. That doesn't mean there is a trend there.


You can drink and drive and get home just fine. It doesn't mean it is a safe thing to do.
