We took spanking, G...Yes, it is something ain't it. We took spanking, God and the Pledge of Allegiance out of schools and wonder why we turn out monsters that are dumb as a box of rocks.<BR/><BR/>Then their lazy parents think they have to beat the kids into submission when a spanking and a good talking to will get the job done if you do the spanking and talking like you mean it but also like you care. <BR/><BR/>If you are persistent with the spanking, talking and caring you soon find that the spanking becomes unnecessary after a short time and you wind up with a good kid that you can talk to and that trusts you.<BR/><BR/>Amazing how simple parenting can be if started early, done proper and maintained throughout the childs formative years into adulthood.Assrothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14093506505019819353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6486978550014792561.post-24077390141437537442007-12-11T03:53:00.000-08:002007-12-11T03:53:00.000-08:00Sorry for the delay in replying; some stuff has be...Sorry for the delay in replying; some stuff has been going on.

I was spanked occasionally as a child, and I spanked my own kids.<BR/><BR/>Personally, I think that there are quite a few kids nowadays that would actually benefit, or would have benefitted from a spanking or two during their formative years.<BR/><BR/>Of course, I had a good friend when my kids were small who was flabbergasted when, in response to a whiny request from my kids, I simply said, "No." And they went off to play. She said, "What? You just said no and they listened? You didn't explain it to them or anything?" I looked at her, astounded. "Ummm...I'm the Mom...I *do* expect them to listen. If they really require more explanation, I'll give it to them, but they know the limits and boundaries." My friend, on the other hand, had a child who could pitch a fit for an hour in a store and she would crouch down beside the kid explaining, ad nauseum, all the reasons the kid couldn't have his way. My kids knew that if that behavior occurred it wouldn't take long for me to haul 'em up from the floor, give 'em a swat on the rump and the end of the shopping trip would occur rather quickly.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00848835904914119912noreply@blogger.com
