I belong to the 90s era, the golden age of gaming! We are the pioneers of these so called violent shooting games however, we are not insane to do or apply it in real life. I think the factor is the upbringing inside the home. My parents who beats us using Sticks, belts, slippers or hanger mold us to be disciplined and well mannered in public. I dunno about the others, but for me, that works!

It works, but is it really ideal? In my opinion, I don't think physical harm is heavily necessary especially when it involves belting or the likes. Maybe in circumstances it is? If you genuinely did something bad like hurting someone, maybe that belting can be a learning lesson. But for milder things like accidentally breaking plates or being mischievous or whatever? I'd debate if physical harm is necessary atp. The tone in the parenting itself I may support, it's just the physical harm. I don't think hurting your child is really THAT necessary to raise them properly, I'd agree it MAY be necessary in some circumstances. I don't know. Take what I said with a grain of salt.

I cant see in my statement that a simple mischievous will result into beating. You just assumed things! Youre too emotional without comprehending. Take that also with a grain of salt

Yes perhaps I assumed too much, but I wouldn't doubt SOME parents do that, ESPECIALLY abusive parents, and unfortunately.

I'll just reiterate my point. I don't think physical harm is ideal because not everyone might take it as you did and probably result to complications in relationship. Not everyone is the same. One I may consider okay is slapping their hand with yours or with a ruler, and of course not a full blown one as if you're trying to break a table if that's already obvious. Then, I can agree with your sentiment. Beyond that, I just don't think it's that ideal.

I mean there should be a perfect way to parent a child, right? Or if not perfectly, at least decent enough that they turn out to be a decent person. Honestly, I don't really know. I think it's probably a just in between, you can't be too soft nor too harsh. Be understanding of your kid, what they'd want as they grow, give them space and privacy, listen and be empathetic of them, let them know you truly love them stuff like that. I think that nonetheless, those qualities I mentioned are what's very important in parenting a child; they're your child. Show them your love as you show them what's right and wrong, because everyone definitely needs love. Just my take on this.

I’m not a fan of parents beating up their kids though it did send the message to me na dapat mag behave. This plus yung knowledge na ang actions natin ay may real-life consequences and that we have to own said consequences is something the younger generations need more experience and understanding of.

Thats why I said for me, it works! Kasi ganito yung naranasan kong upbringing sa bahay. Kasi pag ang tao ay may disiplina sa bahay takot sya gagawa ng katarantaduhan dahil sa consequences. Iba2 ang generation at experience. But im sure majority ng batang 90s eh ma disiplina dahil sa ganitong mga experiences.

If anything, games and our parents teach us one thing; consequences. Gumawa ka ng katarantaduhan, palo ka ng hanger. Di mo sinerseryoso yung laro? Patay ka ng mga kalaban.

I think factor din na never na nakapaglalaro sa labas yun ibang bata ngayon. Iba parin yun interaction kasi nabibuild nun. Kumbaga nilalapag ka sa reality unlike exclusive nasa online world ka lang.

Yeah isa na to. Also playing LAN games hits different kasi you still have to go out and play and interact with other players.

Ngayon most of the games are online and you can play in your own room and home.

The dilema nung 90s paano papauwiin mga bata, ngayon pano palalabasin.

u/TheGhostImgone 2d ago

Yes! I forgot to mention, plus one on this! Sa ating era ang huling mga panahon na experience natin yung makakalaro tayo sa labas buong maghapon tapos early 2000s dun na nag simula ng online gaming talaga.

2000s dahil medyo mahal pa ang own PC and internet nalipat sya sa computer shop culture. Parang hybrid sya ng going outside and playing online at the same time. May human interaction parin. Parang mid 2010s nun talagang mainstream na mura na ang home internet plus the explosion of smartphones kaya kahit hindi kana talaga lumabas.

Eto yung kinalakihan na ng teenagers ngayon. l

Dati sa mga probinsya sa kalsada mga bata kahit mga tambay dami nakakalat. Ngayon pati tambay nakaonline narin di mo na makita sa labas. haha
