It really upsets me when I have to remind my own parents of my spanking rules:
– no spanking under 3 years old
– no spanking on bare skin
– no belts or whips
– absolutely no spankings on the genitals, even through clothes or with a hand
– limit the spanking to no&
The spankee is 12 months old and can’t tell us what happened. But the evidence that Grandpa broke ALL these rules is t

On the farm, kids are cheap labor. In the city, kids are expensive furniture. I read that somewhere, and there’s some truth to that. I have been to third world countries in the past on a number of occasions and there is a stark contrast between the kids over there and the kids in the US. I mean, I can’t even BRIDGE the difference. The kids over “there” are way ahead in their thinking and politeness and respect is paramount. Here in the US…moaw. While there is zero reason for abuse, I do believe that a small “slap with two fingers in the face” will do the job if a child hits you. Why? Because I was like that. I don’t know why, but I did do that one time to my parent. Only once. Because I vividly remember the “little slap” I got back. I was an emotional wake-up call more than a physical pain, because there was no pain. I never did it again…ever! We need to stop treating our kids like little princes and princesses.

Reading this again is so worth it for a parent like me and I still have same opinion the last time I read this.

I hate people who hurt their kids too much as if they were fighting with adults. Children need love, care, understanding, and guidance. As a parent, I punish my child by not allowing playing outside for days or not using a tv or cell phone, but I do not use any objects. Instead, my husband talks to our child so we know why he makes mistakes and explains to him that whatever intention he has, good or bad, it cannot change the fact that he does something wrong, and however hard the situation is, he needs to choose what is the right thing to do.

My parents beat us because their parents beat them. The usual punishment for any misbehavior was a naked whipping, and my parents used a real leather stock whip. They’d tell us to go to our rooms and take off all our clothes, then they’d come in with that horrible whip and let us have it from head to toe. And this started when we were very small, like 5yo or younger. The pain was agony and the embarrassment was horrible. And just when the welts would heal they’d find a reason to whip you again. None of us speak to our parents today, and we’ve all vowed never to spank any of our children. And we haven’t. The abuse ends with our generation.
