[quote=Anonymous]Parenting is not simple. Absolute statements that shame other parents’ choices implies a need to assert superiority. The words I have seen here from the anti-spammers are a form of bullying plain and simple. One study is one study. I am sure you could find a study proving otherwise. I do not spank. However, I have used it as a tool in my toolbox at select times in the past. Spanking when given in a controlled way in private can be an effective way to make children know that you are in control—which they need to feel safe. In fact, when I was using spanking as a tool with one child two years ago, her sense of security from my control , allowed her to work on managing her anxiety which was causing serious depression. Shame on you parents for calling other parents names. Are you raising your children to judge other people too?[/quote]
