[quote=Anonymous]Does anyone regret NOT spanking? My kids are teenagers now, and from the beginning I went along with my wife and the parenting experts who were dead set against spanking. Fast forward sixteen years, and our two kids are mouthy brats. They always argue and debate about every little chore we dare to assign them. Both our kids had problems growing up, as the older kids has anxiety and relieved it by trying to control the younger one. We did therapy but waited WAY too long to start the older one on meds, and now the younger hates the older even though the older one “is all better”. I find myself wishing that I hadn’t listened to my wife, and instead had given the older one a spanking each time the older one unloaded on the younger one. Maybe I could have taught the older one to deal with anxiety without spilling it onto others, and maybe the younger would have been protected.[/quote]
