[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If all this spanking is so good for building trust (or teaching kids not to lie and steal) then that should be the end of it right?

Your kid stole, you spanked him and took away his electronics... and now he knows he's not allowed to do that.

So end of problem right?

Because your kids only stole because he wanted the money and didn't realize it was against the rules to take it.   So now you have told him, and punished him by spanking, so now he knows you mean business, and he won't steal anymore

Right?  Isn't that the point of punishment?   To teach the kid a lesson?

So now he's learned his lesson.   End of problem.   He will no longer steal or lie.

[b]Of course... if he DOES steal or lie again.... what will you do?   Spank harder and longer?   Maybe THAT will teach him his lesson?[/b][/quote]

You are confusing spanking with abuse.   Spanking (occasional) should be a quick, cautious corrective measure; "spanking harder and longer" does not apply.[/quote]
