No, I haven't been abused in those term either. And still beaten by my father, when I had a poor score in study, do some erroneous things or something... But different from Jura, I choosed to forgive him, at least, it's he let me down and bring me up, every time I saw his write hair, I can not help but think: he is my beloved father, he've work half-life long for me.

italki would not be the ideal place for you to conduct your research

No I haven't been abused in terms of human rights , but my brother and I got belted by our father with his strap when we were growing up and this turned us off all forms of violence as it left not only physical scars but mental ones too, in the sense we've never really forgiven him for hurting us this way.

maybe it sounds strange but exists really, there is an old speak in china: that is Dutiful sons are the product of the rod. so most of my agers have suffered it. but when we grow into about13,our parents began to treat us differently. but it didnot bring something bad.we know they love us.as time goes by,we are getting that there are no body can love you ad deep as your parents.you know being only child is a certain lonely thing.and everyone are used to being the sun of the family so that we are not good at giving out and being the partners of others.at surface, we are familiar, but inside we still think only the parents is most dependable.

certainly yes, but i think it was a good thing for me actually. as a child and throughout my teen years i was quite the ornery and unruly brat. had it not been for my frequent beatings and lashings, i think i would never have made this far in life... so thanks mom and dad! and i hope to continue this practice on my future kids too without "the law" overstepping its bounds and getting in my way! :) i think in recent years this is fastly becoming a lost art. of course, i'm obviously not supporting nor referring to pedophiles, drunkards, or just insane parents... but rather normal parents just having no other recourse than beating their "own" children for the sake of discipline. if u have any further questions, i would be more than happy to help! good luck :)
