Whyd yo momma beat you?

Unless it's a single parent household, most child beatings are done by the father-figure. 

I was beaten for existing. They didn't want a first-born girl and once my first brother was born, I was an 'extra' . 

Anytime my siblings did anything, I was the one that was beaten for it because they couldn't have done anything wrong. Somehow beating me would teach them to not do things. All it did was teach them that they could do whatever because they wouldn't get punished. 

There was a belt on the top of the fridge. There was a whole display of belts in the garage. And of course, if a belt wasn't handy, just outright beating on a small child with bare adult hands was acceptable too. As long as the bruises weren't anywhere noticeable. A 200+ lb. adult beating on a 30 lb. underfed kid was considered perfectly acceptable for any and every imagined insult. 

When a 5 year old knows how to take a punch before they even enter kindergarten, there's something wrong. :|

mom took to the spoon and spatula, dad took to the leather belt.

i wasn't bad... necessarily. really its their fault. they always emphasized challenging authority when you knew they were wrong in doing something. so as a child, we all think we're right, sooooooo.... yeah >.> basically, i was stubborn and always challenged them on EVERYTHING. i knew that ass kickin was coming, but i still pushed it and held fast to my position.

i remember a particularly bad beating when my brother used to sneak out of his room at night and eat all the little Debbie snack cakes

Mum's husband would beat us with his belt, when he found the cakes missing, he called us both out to the living room and made us lean over a loveseat and beat our asses with it until he found out who actually took the cakes. My brother never admitted it, which made the beatings worse for both of us.

Mum stood and watched, I haven't forgiven her for this.

My father never beat me. Not even once. And the quest ion is what did you do tobget in trouble

Whoops preemptively posted apparently. 

Eh, pretty much for anything that set him off. Fights at school, back talk, disrespect, hole in the bar of soap, teacher complaints, not listening, breaking stuff, not doing chores.

My stepdad beat the shit out of me, physically and mentally the entire time I was under his roof. A lot of it was completely unwarranted on my end. Something would go wrong for him and he'd vent his frustrations on me. His signature move was to give me a gift and then beat me for taking him for granted and then him snatching the gift back. Occasionally I would get smacked around because of something I did. I was once grounded and beaten for getting a 101 in Spanish I in high school after my stepdad discovered there was a total of 110 points possible and I had not tried to attain the remaining 9 points. My mother all but approved this behavior and sometimes joined in. I desperately tried to spend all my free time at friends houses lest I be beaten. 

 

My dad never hit me, though he was abusive in every other way. That being said, he beat my brother to pulp all the time. I had had my suspicions as such but my brother confirmed it last year. Funny thing is my dad's dad had a whiskey fist and my dad swore never to hit a child. So much for that.

Never was.  Mom had very nice parents, so she didn't do it & Dad was beaten by his father with a flail and by priests & nuns at school.  He promised himself he'd never do that to his kid(s).

reverse happened with my dad. he was one of 17 kids, and one of the youngest at that. so he was raised by a number of people, not frequently his own parents. they whooped him, but not like his eldest sisters and his crazy grandma did a number on his head. if it was dark or close to it, she would take the kids way out into the orchard with blind folds on so they were lost. then they would have to pray and try to find their way back. if their prayers were answered, the "demons" wouldn't come to take them. or she made them kneel on rocks for hours confessing their sins and praying. truthfully, my dad got better with each kid and much didn't occur after my parents divorce... but he was brutal for quite a long while.
