[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dangerous situations:  Trying to take off from me when in a parking lot.

Screaming at the top of his lungs because he was mad.  The single swat on his covered rear end got his attention.  I suppose I could have tried my Grandmother's solution -- ice cold water thrown in his face.

This was years ago when spanking was still acceptable, and in some situations expected.  Even his pediatrician recommended a single swat to get him to put an end to his immediate behavior, so we could move on to dealing with whatever the issue was.

How many decades ago was this?  :shock:  My father was a pediatrician and very critical of parents who spanked. [/quote]

My sister is a pediatrican who spanks right now.[/quote]

I really doubt it. Nice try though.[/quote]

That child is now 24.  PP you can doubt it if you need to, it doesn't change the facts.  That pediatrician also believed in medicating every child suspected of having ADHD.  No testing or confirmation required, just give them Ritalin.[/quote

Well, the spanking is wrong, but the medication thing is correct. Parents who refuse to medicate their children should have their children removed from their custody. It's cruel.[/quote]

Doctors who medicate children without proper testing should have their licenses revoked. You seem to have misread the original post. [/quote]
