Spare the rod? Struggling with spanking
Tue Nov 17, 2009
It is an interesting perspective and it genuinely made me think for a bit, but at the same time the discipline/redirecting part of parenting is a private matter between you (the parent) and the child. However a parent decides to correct the misbehaving child is a private matter.

Completely agree with you!! Children need to know who's boss- Who's in charge and where the boundaries are. If a child crosses the boundary they also need to know that there are consequences. When I was a child I knew the boundary line and I also knew what to expect if I crossed that line.

Jason, I agree with you I see parents all the time that plead with their kids to behave. They negotiate with them. They are trying to be the child's friend. It's not a parent's job to be the friend.

Vickie, that's a tough position to be in. The only thing you can do is to work together as parents and try your best together. I understand your husband is against this form of discipline, but when other methods don't work I would turn it over to him and say they are your kids.

It's not a lazy way of parenting! It's ridiculous to think that parents who spank do so because it makes "you" feel good. That's laughable! Do you yell at your children because it makes YOU feel good. Spanking parents spank because it's a proven method of behavior correction.

Hi, I completely agree with you. I don't have children yet, but someday if I do have children of my own I would think I would raise them the same way that I was raised. It worked for my sister and I. We knew how to behave and we also knew that if we "crossed the line" we would be punished.
