People in favor of corporal punishment for children often use it. The "rod" being the switch or other implement.

It means if the shepherd (parent) does not use the rod to guide the sheep (children), the sheep will go astray. It is NOT about corporal punishment. It means parents should set guidelines and enforce them.

The (ugly) view here is that failure to physically discipline children by beating them with "the rod" will lead to them becoming spoiled.

Someone should tell this to kid-beaters.

It means if you don't discipline your child, they'll be spoiled. Historically the rod would refer to beating.

Always keep a spare rod handy in case a kid gets mouthy. Any kid, not just your kid.

ROD's a shitposter, so if you let your child read his posts then they'll be pieces of shit just like him.
