[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My mother spanked us as well - it taught me not to confide in her although I loved her. Even as an adult, I still keep things from her. Spanking makes sneaky children. [/quote] Reality is any punishment can make kids sneaky. We don't spank. I hated my parents for it too but there is also a difference between a few swats on the behind and a long, drawn out/painful spanking and that's where no one is really making a distinction. Soap or hot sauce is very abusive. A swat - not the best parent moment but it will not cause lasting harm. Beating your child, will clearly harm.[/quote] No. Causing physical pain to a child is clearly different than a time out or another consequence. Even a few swats on the behind is making you a perpetrator to a child. You are purposely causing a little kid pain. That cannot be explained or rationalized away. Do you kiss the boo-boos that you inflict? [/quote]
