kids who have never been spanked explain the terrible, horrifying, and traumatic outcomes of spanking.
I was regularly spanked as a kid
I think I turned out fine (at least as far as that goes), in the long run, but not everyone will
spanking alone will probably not be that bad for the kid but it can turn into fear and distrust. you shouldn't be afraid of your parents. that's a recipe for disaster. that's how you get kids who hide mistakes like wrecking a car from their parents. you want your children to be able to come to you for help when they do something wrong, not to keep it from you out of fear for being hit
anyway, foxscotch is bein dum!!
if a child is too handicapped to connect the dots between
1 - doing something wrong (2 - getting yelled at for it) 3 - getting spanked for it
I'd like to believe that you're deliberately misunderstanding. the alternative would be sad
