I wish I could say spanking didn't have a negative affect on me. I agree what works for one child may not work for another, but spanking was a form of discipline I chose not to use. I have heard that we tend to parent our kids the way we were parented, but I chose to parent mine the way I wanted to be parented but wasnt. Funny, now that my kids are older they give me feedback on my parenting of them and compare me to their friend's parents. It is funny mostly, but I am proud of what they have to say about my parenting and glad that they are not telling me they got underserving spankings, the way I tell about my parents.
