Lecturing being a punishment is too flimsy a proposition to build a credible argument on top of. Hardly anyone could see it that way for more than a few seconds

Lecturing being a punishment is too flimsy a proposition to build a credible argument on top of. Hardly anyone could see it that way for more than a few seconds without pulling a muscle. At worst it's simply asserting your status as the parent.
- reidjs 4y agoMaybe I’m weird, but I hate being lectured, to the point where I’d much prefer physical pain towards me (within reason of course). I would rather get punched in the face than be forced to listen to the average person speak for more than 5 minutes, my father, maybe I’d give him 3 minutes of lecturing before I’d prefer the punch, we don’t have a great relationship. Many children probably feel the same way.
