Here we go. I got my ass beat with everything my Mom could swing. Belts, coathangars, EXTENSION CORDS!! I know I was the only kid ever to throw away my own HotWheels set because I kept getting beat with the tracks. I'm talking brutal beatings - not just one swat. Beatings that would send a parent to prison for double digits. I'm in my 40s and have a 9yo and a 2yo and they're disciplined by my wife, occasionally I have to be the bad guy and yell for a minute and threaten to throw away the playstation. My mom once commented on how I was being 'a little rough" and I suggested I beat them like she beat me. She said I deserved it. I said "Bye now. Have a nice day". At age 13 I violated the terms of my 'restriction' and was found playing basketball at the school one day when mom came home early. She had a broomstick and kept snarling for me to get inside the house through clenched teeth. Said she was going to count to 3. I said count to ten - I dont care, you aint beating me no more. She told me to pack my shit. I did and couch surfed for 6 months with friends and family. I WAS 13!!! I've had issues with my violent Mom and my alcoholic Dad all my life. Drugs, prison, unemployment - whatever bad shit life could throw my way I just figured it was my fate for being born into the family...

The lady I married never ever got a spanking in her whole life and I was shocked to find out some people actually grew up like that. My kids are well behaved - very bright and intelligent kids who will never know the pain I knew and I'm very thankful for that. But one of these days that playstation is going in the trash!

How about we get off this topic!
What If this emotionally gets to your child???
What if it makes her cry her eyes out just from the thought of her dad hitting her after she was told not to hit anyone else.
But it's for a punishment what if the poor kid gets mad and wants to "punish" her friend
Just imagine this your sister is crying with a towel over her body and your dad is screaming get over here so I can spank you or I'll take you like you are
That poor 12 year old girl
She try's to live her life but parents are holding her back!!! So many things go through her mind like "what will my boyfriend think" and "why do my parents want to hit me"
I know everyone knows it is what the bible says but it just makes me cry to hear stories about this and see it happen
I give up. Stop hurting your kids.
Usually my mom but sometimes my dad, after patently explaining the offence and why it deserved a spanking told me to take off my pants and undies and bend over their lap. Which I did - not wanting to earn a worse spanking. I would then get between 10 and 20 swats with the back of a wooden hair brush. It was always hard enough to leave me crying loudly.
Afterwards mom would hug me and when I had finished crying she would talk to me gently, explain the spanking again, that she spanked me only because she loved me and needed to discipline me etc.
I have meet many people who have been abused by the way that their parents disciplined them (both by corporal punishment and by other means) and many kids who have been abused by their parents failure to discipline them. The worst case I know personally is a guy I met after he had completed his 17th rehab course to get off drugs. His mom never disciplined him at all. As a result he had almost no self discipline throughout his life.
I would say that both kinds of abuse result from a lack of love for you kids.

The important distinction is not between parents who spank and those who don't. The important distinction is between parents who love and care for their kids, teach them, discipline them, play with them, spend time with them - and those who don't.
Also, I got spanked with a belt for stealing, not doing my chores, and being direspectful. They were all bare bottom.
And all I want to know is: does anyone else now who was only spanked occasionally(and when you know you did something wrong to deserve it) like getting spanked now? Like in bed?
And I will never hit my future kids. I'll just use grounding and/or take away their favorite things for a while.
