[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]not clear on why people don't understand that spanking does not take place in a rage or as violence.  I would never ever hit my kids when I was angry (or slap a kid like the OP).  But sure, if they are bad, I spank them on their bottom about as calmly (or more calmly really) then I am right now reading the newspaper.  Why do you think it is like a barfight or like spousal abuse?  Bizarre.  [b]I tell them I love them 100% unconditionally, and that I only do this because I love them[/b] and don't want them to get hurt.[/quote]

That is bone chillingly awful behavior on your part. You have many bad bad bad bad mommy moments if this is how you parent. I have never said this to anyone on this board, but honestly, you suck as a parent.[/quote]

Agree. I grew up in a home where there was real violence, against my mother and my siblings and me, and your comments turn my stomach. It sends a mixed message that it's okay to hit if you're the one in power, and that it's acceptable for someone to hit you if they say they love you afterwards. Yuck.[/quote]

clearly your violent upbringing is clouding your thinking and perspective, and I understand that.  We are not violent at all, and there is no rage or psychoness.  But if my kid runs into the street, then I 100% do spank them calmly and tell them I am doing that only because I love them and don't want them to get hurt.  My father did the same to me, and he doesn't have a violent bone in his body and never even raised his voice to me in 40 years.  I knew he loved me and hated spanking me.[/quote]

I agree. Chill out people. Just because you give your 3 year old a swat on the behind if they truly deserve it,  does not mean they live in some violent abusive home. Sheesh.
When my almost 2 year old tried the hitting thing with me I smacked his hand back and told him "no."  He only tried one more time and never again. 
Some of you are so damn soft and then you wonder why your kids are out of control and abusive to you. [/quote]
