I read things like this and laugh...so you're cool with other parents using corporal punishment on your kids?
I see you have missed the mark on what I said as well.
I could easily say "are you OK with your kid endangering other kids with no repercussions?"
My point to my kids is your actions have consequences.
Would I touch someone else's kid? No, not unless they are directing or enacting harm on innocents or on my family.
I will tell you this, kids like that, that dont respect adults and laugh in their face, they dont turn out right unless someone drops the hammer on them and it is best that the police aren't the ones to do it.
That doesn't sound nice, it doesn't sound right, but its the damned truth of it.
They older they get, the less of a chance it ever gets fixed.

Nice. So your motivation is to hit your kids to frick with their emotions. Great.

Never. I can't hit a kid hard enough to see them cry. That would really bother me

I too cant comprehend how someone could willingly hurt their child. Of the people I know that spank their kids most are not breaking the bank when it comes to IQ.

It was a last resort, but if I felt it was needed I'd light up that rear end. My 1st 2 typically only got that when they were being mean to each other. My youngest I don't know if I ever had to bust her, maybe a few times.
I flat got my arse wore out when I was a kid. I'm not scarred from it but there are a few that still hurt a bit and I'm 49 now.

Depends on the kid. Mine got spanked when she was younger and is an absolute angel now (tween). Spanking is not wrong, people just take it to an extreme and end up beating their kids.

Anyone go to school in Louisiana?
I got the wooden paddle in school. Not sure if that has stopped or not. I would suspect it has.

Imagine how much better society would be if parents actually disciplined their kids accordingly... we have a bunch of window licking freeloaders running round now, thanks to you weak boomers.

I agree with this. Spanking has its place. It should be used as the last resort most of the time but the threat should be there
Agreed. With a lot of kids, just the threat will work. Other correcrive forms of discipline such as timeout, or no video games, playing outside with friends, etc will all prove effective.
But you do have those select kids who refuse to listen. They will take your threat in the face and laugh at it while contiuing to disobey. It is in instances like this where I advocate for a good corrective whooping.

Agreed. For me its a tool I rarely use.
I have more of a staged approach. Timeout, take things away, grounding, and my favorite, physical conditioning (running laps, push-ups, squats, yard work, etc)!!!

The problem that I have seen is not how to punish, but if.
I see too many cases where kids are pitching fits because they didn't get what they want. Unfortunately, more times than not, the parent deals with this by giving them what they want so that they will shut up.
Let's see. What have we learned? If I scream enough I will get what I want.
Fast forward 20 years.
HEY BOSS!!! I AM NOT HAPPY!!! GIVE ME A RAISE!!! SCREAM! CRY!!! SCREAM!!!

There are degrees of punishment in my home time out, sit in the corner, and extra chores. Spanking is used the least, but I personally feel it's needed. There has to be some serious disrespect or non compliance for one, and normally it's something they do or say to the wife. I know a lot of people are anti spanking, but I find that honestly it just keeps them in line more when they know there's a definite line that can't be crossed. We've all seen and heard how kids who don't get them talk to their parents, or don't comply with simple requests.

Sorry you Neanderthals are so out of touch with your little darlings.
"Time Out", is becoming just too harsh. The lady on TV said her two year old was getting too confrontational, argumentative, and refused to go into "time out". She was wasting too much of her time arguing with her daughter.
What is next?

Thanks for all the feedback!
I see that most people agree with my idea of spanking: It definitely holds a place within disciplining the child.
