[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Which culture are you from OP? Unless you're white, getting smacked by one's elders isn't exactly taboo if it's well-deserved. Since you agree that your own son can be a handful, I would say that it's better not to antagonize the situation. Your son learned an important lesson, whatever it was he did to get his punishment. [/quote] It isn't the smack that is the issue, but the secrecy surrounding it. You are correct that one smack probably wouldn't matter in a culture where it isn't taboo, but when an elder does such a smack, they don't hide it or add additional punishment for telling mom. If anything, ownership of the whole story by smacker and smackee is part of the deal. Secrecy around violence toward children? Abuse.[/quote]
