Spanking as Discipline
Quote From: lmbookerossieIf my son were to ever raise his hand to hit me, I would have knocked him on the ground and he would have to have had help to get up. I understand that he 'wanted to show her how it felt' but, I'm sorry. How I was raised, you wouldn't dare do that--you wouldn't even dare dream about doing that! How disrespectful! But you know what, I don't blame him in a way, because had the mom done what she was supposed to have done from the time he was old enough to understand, he wouldn't have had the guts to do something like that. I know Dr. Phil doesn't believe in spanking, but I do. I don't believe in abusing, but I do believe in discipline. And what that child needs is a good old-fashioned butt whipping! Spanking is not discipline, it is punishment. Discipline is a very special kind of love. It takes a loving parent to take the time to instill discipline. It is so much easier to spank a child than to take the time to discipline, isn't it? A good old fashioned butt whipping? You sound like a very angry parent to me. I feel sorry for your son. a good old fashioned butt whipping is abuse. It seems that parents today just don't want to be bothered with being responsible. Parents today also have much difficulty with delayed gratification & model that for their children. So, when kids display the same behavior as the parents, they get spanked. Go figure!!!!!!!!!!
