Deathstroke: Knights & Dragons dropped on VOD on August 4th for $20. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsdVLe2xi9g  . (Vudu has Deathstroke in a Bundle with the CW Seed animated shows/movies Constantine: City of Demons and Freedom Fighters: The Ray for $33.) . . Deathstroke: Knights & Dragons was originally a 12 episode series on CW Seed. (Part of the free CW app.) The best I can tell, only one 38 minute episode has aired on the app, back in January 2020.  . The VOD movie is 87 minutes. (I don’t understand.) . . I just watched the 38 minute episode. Grace Randolf, in her review described the movie as being as violent as the recent WB animated Mortal Kombat movie. I didn’t find what I watched to be anywhere near close to as violent. Though it is plenty bloody. . .  J.M. DeMatteis answered a fan question implying that the 38 minute episode is the edited version, and the movie is just more. Which kind of implies that they cut out 49 minutes of gore to leave a 38 minute movie.  . . The DC animated movie Superman: Man of Tomorrow hits VOD Aug 23rd 2020 also for $20. . The movie features Lobo, Martian Manhunter, Lex Luthor, Lois Lane, and Parasite. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weOF9_FGjOk . . #deathstroke #deathstroketheterminator #superman #DCanimatedmovies #dccomics #sladewilson #warneranimation #MichaelChiklis #bronzetiger #ladyshiva #Jericho #parasite #lobo #lexluthor #thejackyl #loislane #martianmanhunter #manoftomorrow #mortalkombat #cartoons #jmdematteis #cartooncharacters #warnerbroscartoons #gracerandolf #cwseed #thecw #thecwapp #vod #vudu #primevideo   (at Portland, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDkx51SH7IQ/?igshid=pqzqyeexw3q8

Honestly that sounds like your parents spanked you over everything, regardless of severity. That is wrong and I certainly think that is bad but this article proves nothing. I’ve looked up the study and all I’ve found is vague information that isn’t very thorough and also many other sources saying that it isn’t thorough..

Nope. I can’t give you the exact number or frequency of spankings, because the memory of a child is shit, but I know that it wasn’t for “everything, regardless of severity”. 

Listen. For a kid, something only needs to happen once or twice before a part of it sticks with them. 

As a kid, I ate mushrooms twice, both times on pizza, both times I spent the night throwing up. It only took those two times for me to decide “Mushrooms are satan” and, decades later, I still despise mushrooms. 

For a kid, it only takes you hitting them a couple of times before they possibly learn the lesson of “I hate being hit, thus I should hide when something bad happens so that I don’t get hit again”. 

I’ll repeat myself: Sometime spanking works out- it turns out fine for that person! But when it goes wrong, it becomes terrible and has the potential to be horribly damaging. And with kids, you can’t tell which one it’s going to be until it’s already done. Do you really want to take that kind of risk on a kid you’re supposed to love and who relies on you, especially when there are plenty of alternatives?
