Do Whoopens Work? Are we making our children better or worse?

In this powerful episode of the Grow Your Money Podcast, we’re tackling a conversation that’s long overdue in our community. Many of us grew up believing that whoopins were a rite of passage—a necessary tool for raising “good kids.” But is it discipline… or generational trauma in disguise?

We’re digging into the historical roots of corporal punishment in the Black community, why so many of our parents felt they had no choice, and when discipline crosses the line into abuse. We’ll explore the psychological and emotional impact of physical punishment, the statistics that reveal the long-term consequences, and whether whoopins are really effective—or just harmful.

This episode is for every parent, guardian, and cycle-breaker ready to raise emotionally intelligent, self-aware children without shame or fear.

✨ Let’s talk truth, break myths, and start the healing—because what we don’t transform, we transmit.
