My 5 yr old son beats me!

Ive faced a lot of disrespect in my life, office, home, abusive marriage. But this one stick me hard. My own blood beating the hell out of me at the age of 5. Ignored for 2 years, tried telling him its wrong, but overruled and cut by my husband . I dont want to carry any of his responsibility anymore. No respect is end game for ne. Zm I selfish or am I mad?

One slap at a time my friend. If he grows any older than 7 with the same behaviour, you'll be in trouble.

But I laughed hard at this post 😂😂

If your husband interrupts, give him one as well.

Yea, its domestic violence via a child. My 70 year parents think its end of the world, otherwise I would have left this moron husband. I told him if he doesn’t mend his ways, i would leave him with the child. Thats why he instigates the child now. Its generational, his mother instigated him against his father.

Use an old school parenting approach. He's just 5 anyway

Told to ise gentle parenting. If I scold him , my husband scolds me very much infront of him. The kid threatens me tht he will tell father if I scold him

Might sound harsh, but self respect has utmost importance and is above everything. Have an open discussion about ur concerns with your family members. If it's not working out, there is no point in carrying the burden of mentally/physically abusive married life. Take the control of your life in your own hand. move on and do better for your own peace ✌️

I have tried many times, every time my husband agrees he would change, only to instigate the little one against me, I carry all the responsibility alone with my work and he instigates the son against me. I have no friends, no life just one kid who now hates me a lot

Try gentle parenting, dont give the child trauma, be in an abusive marriage coz of child, my pain my trauma is just nothing.

Abusive marriage itself is a trauma to kids, doesn’t matter how much gentle parenting you try. You seem to be fooling yourself with all these misplaced understanding of yours

This is a delicate situation as a mother. I truly understand.. A son ill-treating his mother in front of the other parent shows a lack of basic respect but also deeply undermines your role and dignity within the family. It's important to address this behavior because if left unchecked, it can normalize emotional harm and create lasting damage to you-and your child relationship. I suggest a conversation is essential — not to create conflict, but to protect the your self-worth and ensure that healthy boundaries and mutual respect are upheld in the household. Every parent deserves to be treated with kindness, especially by their own children.

Is "belan", "footwear", belt treatment, a thing of past?

You could still slap the idiot though before the behavior takes root ......

If the husband intervenes, do let him experience any of the aforementioned methods of behavioural treatment.

I mean what are we if we don't even have our dignity and respect inside our homes. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I think this marriage is already doomed. So, no need to stay in it anyway. Kindly gather some self respect and a lot of courage and just RUN! Also, you seem to be working which means you will be able to manage yourself financially later. And for God's sake, please don't let your child behave this way otherwise, he would grow up into a typical Gunda like toxic man! If needed, YOU beat the hell out of him (I know gentle parenting won't work here as he's already conditioned by yor husband). All the best!
