What a disgusting post! Grown men do not brutalize male children if they want to live. I told my parents when I was 6 that if they ever beat me again I would wait and come into their bedroom at night and kill them. My father (who disapproved of beating boys but did it purely for my good) looked at me and decided I meant what I said (I did -- and I think I would have -- I had just learned about death and I thought it was a solution to my problems). We never had any other problems. They found that fining me my allowance (negative reinforcement) worked wonders. I was an excellent child and was able to save up money and lend it to them when they were broke. Much better to have a generous creditor than to be murdered in your bed.
