I don't have children of my own just step kids whom I loved and treated as my own. There were many times we were tested and mind you I would have loved to wring their necks. I don't necessarily think beating a child is the way to discipline but an occasional spanking is not out of line, imo.
I know I had no desire to cross my parents as we would get the belt. This type of disciplining certainly did not damage me or siblings so I can't say there is anything wrong with it. |
