Spare the rod, spoil the child

[Esquilax]

Don't worry.. Someday all them kids will do the same thing i did.. my dad hit me for having a harry potter book and i broke his arm.

Yep. That's exactly the thing. You learned that violence was the way to get someone to stop doing something.

Not all the time. My dad once hit me so hard he dislocated his own shoulder, if that gives you an image of what I was dealing with living with my folks, but as a result I absolutely abhor violence.
