[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. This is not something I would ever consider and if my DH did it it would be an immediate divorce.

I was hit as a child. Not often, I can only remember 3 times, but enough that I always felt so much anxiety around my father. I do not want my daughter to experience that.

I also just can't really even understand where spanking comes from. It feels so fundamentally nuts to me. "You did something I didn't like so now I'm going to bring you, a child 1/3 my size, physical harm." WTF? [/quote]

Maybe it’s… you didn’t listen to me when I said not to run in the parking lot and now I will give you a hand seat so you listen next time and don’t KILL yourself. I just find it so hard to believe any of these vehement anti-spammers are truly empathetic because they are utterly unable to think through their other parents’ thought processes. When my parents spanked me, they didn’t cause “physical harm”… a little pain, but always to reinforce an important lesson.

In any case, divorce would be so much worse for your kid than a spanking. [/quote]
