[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those of you that spank, how do you teach your children to not hit other's in anger? If Johnny steals your child's ball on the playground, Johnny is wrong, is it ok for your child to hit him? How do you explain "don't hit other kids, but I will hit you when it suits me"?[/quote] NP. It has never come up. I think because, if you spank correctly, and not in anger, kids inherently understand that it's a punishment that is administered with the proper authority of a parent. To use your example, I might ask if you ever punish by taking away a particular toy, or "putting the toy in timeout" to borrow a particularly nauseating euphemism. Do you ever have to explain why you're allowed to do this, but your child is not allowed to steal Johnny's ball just because Johnny did something to anger him?[/quote]
