African-American’s methods of child rearing are a direct reflection of African influences. For example, in some areas of western Africa (where most slaves were stolen from), a rite of passage for males is the ability to stoically withstand measured beatings. I am sure the experience of slavery and the incipient beatings as part of that reality has had some sort pf psychological impact, as well. However, and most importantly, the approach to child rearing, in which whipping the child has played a significant role has always been a part of the landscape of African culture.
