Could i have a ppp. I have a family member who things its ok to hit kids and be down right disrespectful to other family members as well. I was hit loads off the family member as a kid. Im now an adult with a child of my own who will be 1 in a few months. I let the family member meet my child once and at this time the family member hit another child several times during this visit. My question is would you allow them around your child or not ? We arent close and i tend to avoid all situations to see this person for this reason. Part of me feels bad and the other part doesnt because its not what i want for my child. If the family member ever so much as raised their voice at my child i would go mad and cut all contact. Tia x

  • Depends who it is and the relationship with your child….normal discipline is fine as is a clip round the ear so to speak, but again…only if the family member is a regular part of the child’s life like a gran for example…it doesn’t sound like you are close with this particular person so it shouldn’t even be an issue as they wouldn’t be shouting/hitting your child anyway…so should you allow your child round them…?….yeah, as the family member isn’t close enough to the child to be taking on that responsibility…

  • Nobody should ever lay a hand on your child!
    Personally, I would not let that person anywhere near my child.
    As I don’t know who it is, that may be difficult, so in that instance, I would tell them clearly and firmly once, that if they ever even went to touch my child in a bad way, they would never see me and mine again. I would also ensure that they were never left unsupervised together.
    Also, I would talk to the parents of the children who have been hurt by this person, in case they aren’t aware that it’s happening x

  • It is unacceptable to hit a child, we wouldn’t/shouldn’t hit each other in order to teach a lesson. Despicable behaviour šŸ˜”

  • Not under any circumstances. I have, very very occasionally, given my two a spank on the nappy if they had been very badly behaved or endangered themselves. But not hit them, not ever. If it’s unacceptable for a man to hit a woman , and it is, then how much worse for an adult to hit a child. If they are doing this in front of you, how much worse is going on behind closed doors? Don’t let them have any access to your children and consider whether their treatment of their own children should be reported.

  • No one has the right to raise a hand to any child that isn’t there’s so id defiantly be making it clear to this person that if they ever do raise there hand/ smack you child that it will be the one and only time it ever happens and what you will do if it does ever happen

  • I’d make it very clear to them it’s not on nobody hits my child and if they need telling off I’ll do it even their nans wouldn’t dream of it (probably because they let them get away with murder šŸ˜‚)

  • I wouldn’t mind someone verbally telling my son that he’s being naughty but if anyone hit my son including his dad (without a discussion with me and him or him and I) I’d lose my fucking shit.
    That’s NO ONES place other then the parent.
