[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Like any consequence, the kids KNOW why they are being spanked, and we discuss the issue before and after the correction. Hugs, kisses, and reflection on how we can do better next time. "

Weird and creepy and pervy.[/quote]

Np. This is what we do, too. Why do you think it's weird?[/quote]

NP. I think it's weird too. It sounds cold and calculated. And you're teaching your kid that abuse is OK as long as the hitter gives you a hug and kiss later. Classic adult abuse situation,  there. [/quote]

I love the armchair PhDs who use the term "classic." Look, sweetheart, if your husband out you in time out because he didn't like your attitude, forcing you to sit on the naughty step, and an hour later gave you a hug and a kiss with an admonishment to do better next time, that wouldn't be such a healthy marriage dynamic, either. So maybe let's just drop the ridiculous idea that the parent-child relationship is supposed to be modeled after a spousal relationship. No punishments or disciplining translate well in comparison.[/quote]
