  • In any situation, the aim with children is to bring them up to respect their parents, themselves, and others.
    Spanking is a way of getting there, but
    -Needs to not be savage or brutal, balanced between doing no long lasting damage but being hard enough to get the message across.
    -Only be done at an appropriate time. If it's something mild for example, the child should be given a second chance.
    -It should always be accompanied by an intelligent, adult explanation and reasoning. The parent shouldn't express excessive anger when doing it.
    Anyhow, it only really needs done up to the 10-12 area. When I grew out of idiotic kiddie things, my parents would sometimes nitpick for any reason to attack me, but that ain't fair.
