Comments on: To Spank or Not To Spank http://www.mommastuff.com/?p=93 Talks About Mother Stuff Wed, 10 Feb 2010 10:46:06 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: fimp5 http://www.mommastuff.com/?p=93&cpage=1#comment-741 fimp5 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 22:12:02 +0000 http://www.mommastuff.com/?p=93#comment-741 I agree that an occasional spanking can be an effective form of discipline. Having said that, I do believe other form and/or avenues of discipline should be tried first. If the child continues to misbehave or be willfully disobedient, I think a spanking can be used. I do think it is important that spankings not be given when the parent is losing control, is just fed up, and wallops the child. There is a great debate about spanking at www.opposingviews.com/questions/is-spanking-an-acceptable-form-of-discipline. Experts from both sides weigh in and make some interesting points on the topic.

I was raised being spanked (but not as much as my brother) while my hubs was not... but like you, we've agreed that we will try to talk conflicts out first before deciding on harsher punishments I also think spanking has its merits, when done the 'right' way, at the 'right' time and at the 'right' amount... and is very helpful in disciplining very young children (who actually don't have enough life experience yet to really grasp consequences and accountability) Honestly, I can’t say yet if I have a solid answer to this question… I was raised being spanked (but not as much as my brother) while my hubs was not… but like you, we’ve agreed that we will try to talk conflicts out first before deciding on harsher punishments

I also think spanking has its merits, when done the ‘right’ way, at the ‘right’ time and at the ‘right’ amount… and is very helpful in disciplining very young children (who actually don’t have enough life experience yet to really grasp consequences and accountability)
