[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, different punishments work on different children. Do what works for your child. There is no research that states that, in and of itself, a handful of spankings with an open hand in childhood negatively impacts a child. A lot of adults have been spanked as kids with no lasting negative impact, and they manage to still have close, loving relationships with their parents. Some obviously have issues, but I suspect there may have been more things going on there to cause some emotional/mental issues down the line than simply a handful of spankings as a child.[/quote] There IS actually research that shows that spanking, with an open hand or otherwise, DOES, in fact, negatively impact the child. But, my assumption is that those of you that stank your kids are not making an informed, evidence-based decision based on what is best for your child.[/quote]
