Does a child understand the difference between a spanking and a beating?
Let's get real here - so many say that a child doesnt know the difference between right and wrong and that spanking helps them to learn discipline. But do children underrstand that they are only being spanked? How do you think they view it? Do you remember what you thought when you were a child? I remember thinking that I was getting hit and it hurt and I was terrified of my mom. So tell me how is that not abusive? I think most of you parents that say that there is nothing wrong with spanking your child do not want to spend the time or energy to teach them discipline with other methods. Spanking is an easy fix for you that gets you the results you want the fastest. You are also teaching your kid that hitting is how you get what you want. No wonder when the kid hits you or a sibling. And as far as kids being bratty without spanking, I think that has more to do with the spoiling that goes on instead of actual parenting.
Can you understand something you haven't experienced?
One can never really understand how another person experiences things. even if two people undergo the same experience at the same time, it'll be a different experience for each of them, because they have different mindsets, see the world differently, and so experience the event differently. you can understand how a thing might affect someone, but it has to be only a theoretical knowledge because you aren't that person. even if the same thing happened toyou at the same time that it happened to the other person, all you really *know* is how YOU feel about it. you can understand from the inside only when it happens to you - and even then you'll only know how you feel about it, not how someone else would feel about it. when I've been talking to people about some things, I don't say "I know how you feel", I say, "I know how I felt when something like that happened to me." it's the nearest I can come to understanding them. I think that true understanding has to come from the inside out - to *feel* a thing rather than think how it must feel to someone else - we're all different, you can't use your own personal ruler to measure other people. I get pretty peeved when people say to me, '"I know just how you feel." they don't know how I feel, they're not me, they don't have my exact worldview or my mindset - they don't have my memories or my mentality, so how dare they claim that they know every detail of how I feel about something?

I dont understand this quote?
Everything in this world has a double meaning. People have dual personalities. For example at your face they may seem really friendly but behind your back they may be those backbiting evil people. Everything around you looks so calm but you need to consider the possibilities of dangers that you may face in your future. When acting upon or doing something, you must consider every aspect of that action you take. Like when you eat ice-cream daily, it may calm your nerves every-time but consider the fat you will gain from it. Similarly, if you look closely at a book an author writes what he thinks but you may take or make different perspectives of what he writes. In the case of certain books, the writer may add a specific ending but you can always think what happened to them after years or so since he hasn't. The moral of the quote is nothing is perfect and you have to have different views about a particular thing in order to survive in this world such as when making friends, you need to consider if s/he is as good as they look or they deceiving you.
What is the best way to make people understand they are wrong?
Just shout out loud, and tell them in a straight forward way, that they are absolutely wrong!! Don’t let them speak a word! How can you bear such wrong people? Throw them out of the room! And do let them know, how stupid, and idiotic they are.Are you thinking of doing the above mentioned?(Well I know you are willing to do all this) But Stop, stop…stop!!!If you want to prove someone wrong-¤ Never start with “ I am going to prove you wrong….” . Never, because proving someone wrong is a tough nut to crack, and saying such a thing, will make difficult things even more tough. So don’t!¤ Always start with, “I think that…. ” OR “Don’t you think… ?” It will give a sense that you are not jumping the gun, but deliberately analysing the thing, holistically.¤ Try to listen to the other party, because in the other person’s view point, he or she is absolutely correct!! So you, have to take a deep breathe, and make the other person realise. Be considerate.You will get through it, I know!Hoping, that I was of some help.Take care!!:)
Why do people judge what they don't understand?
People judge others based on their value system. People measure each other by their cultural, religious and social standards. It's not that you are judged because they do not understand. They understand that you are behaving, dressing, thinking, and believing in ways they do not agree with. You must realize that not everybody thinks like you or believes like you. Life is not fair. You will be judged and if you want to assimilate into the adult world you will either grow up or forever live on the outside looking in.
Do you believe there is a difference between knowing and memorizing your studies?
Very good question - and one that is asked too seldom. I saw many students who were NOT very bright who were just obsessive studiers who would LITERALLY memorize their books. Of course that made it easy to get good grades on test - but the same people would often ask the DUMBEST questions in class which showed they were really understanding nothing they read! Or obsessing over some minor detail rather than seeing the big picture or the importance of the context. Many of them went on to have very unspectacular careers and some failed outright, where the people with more social skills and ability to think creatively did far better.
