[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you do not want your kids to ever hit anyone, you should not hit them. It is one of the few issues that is quite clear to me...and I was spanked as a child by otherwise excellent parents. I think it is a loss of control by the parents rather than any kind of discipline.[/quote] +1 And let’s call it what it is: hitting. “Spanking” is a euphemism for hearing. If I hit my next-door neighbor, that constitutes assault. I don’t know why it’s any different when we hit children, other than that we live in a barbaric country in various respects. Also, the comment that “I was hit and I am fine” is meaningless. I’m sure you didn’t ride in a car seat, either, and you were probably exposed to secondhand smoke, but that doesn’t make it OK.[/quote]
