[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, she still spanks them - my 12 year old was smacked the other day. Her mother was a spanker and I think this is where she got this from. Regarding custody, I am looking for two nights a week and every other weekend. Unless your wife is an ax murderer, sole custody for a man is fruitless to attempt.[/quote] Re: the spanking. Out of concern for the kids, I would talk to your attorney about that. Not divorced (so no experience there) but I wonder if you could put in writing where she agrees not to spank the kids. I would think most experts in childhood behavior would view spanking to be abusive and hurts a child self-esteem and the family law courts would tend to agree. Definitely not the right route to go with disciplining teenagers. Seems to be just an anger reaction instead of logical parenting and what does it model for the kids? [/quote]
