[quote=Anonymous]OP, while I won't get into the pro-or-con spanking thing, to me the concerning part is that all of those punishments came after he admitted to what he did. I have always felt that the punishment needs to be less if the kids own up to what they did. In that case, i think spanking seems weird. Taking privileges, sure. But I think you need to express some appreciation for the confession, and allow the child to express remorse. When we punish right away, and severely, we take away the ability of the child to voluntarily express remorse. Though I do understand that hurt and anger are behind your reaction, which is completely understandable.[/quote]
