Again, the fact that your husband has to hit more than once means that your child is NOT learning from the spankings. You are lazy. Find a different way to discipline.

Are you suggesting that each kid will never need more than one timeout?

I didn't say Timeout is my method of discipline.

I would do it for the car seat.

I wouldn't for the pushing.

One is literally a danger to his life. The other is just normal behavior that needs to be adjusted.

I think you have a poor understanding of risk. One car ride unrestrained is a lot safer statistically than a guaranteed fall and hitting your head.

So you only gave your child a time out once, and they never did that behavior again? You must have a miracle child. Any discipline method will need to be repeated for it to be effective.

And I'm not a spammer, but your logic is poor.

Personally, I grew afraid of my father, as he was the one who spanked. I didn't trust my mother, because she didn't protect me from the spanking. It was more emotionally damaging than physically damaging.

Most the time I want to say... you have anxieties, a really bad temper and have you seen yourself on the sidelines of your kids game?

Sure you are okay?!?

Just because you have $$$ does not mean you are okay. They don't even see it.

Because USA thinks they are the best and if another country does something better they get angry.

Ah, no, not at all. Because one very insistent poster wants us all to know that what we are doing is illegal in France (?) and got super crazy when asked if it is actually prosecuted.

There are, of course, many stupid things that are illegal in the US that are not enforced.

When some of you say "spanking," what exactly does that mean? It seems like everyone has different definitions of it.

OP has said that her H hit his child with the intention of inflicting pain. A swat may not hurt, but she specified that he hits him to hurt him not to get his attention.

We don't know what type of "misbehavior" rises to the need for physical pain.

op here. Actually, I gave some examples of the misbehavior.

DH will briefly explain to DS why he's going to get spanked, and he will turn him over his knee and spank him maybe four or five times on the butt. DS cries, DH tells him that we expect better behavior. Over and done with.

I can't find it. Can you post what your child is doing again.
