I will never forget watching a woman slap the shit out of her 1 year old for not being quiet enough during a funeral.. Could not believe it.

Spanking makes my child more aggressive so is avoided. However he did get a spanking in the basement of the Capitol building (yes the one in Wash, lol) this summer due to a completely unacceptable action on his part. Otherwise I take things from him and make him pay for me things like back talking. Works so much better! He hates me to take his toys and he really hates taking money out of his wallet.

I myself don't have kids and don't really plan on it. But I agree more with Cave's pov, and that hurts to say (kiddin bud). Honestly, I want to know where all your kids are and why are there not more of them near me. The kids I come across on a daily event are horrible.

What changed I ask myself.... no corporal punishment? I'm not sure. But kids these days are getting worse than my generation was, and I don't think my generation is all that great. Many of my peers are still F ups.

By and large today, it seems as if a good amount of adults would rather be their kids' friends, then actually be their parents. I also notice many people are unwilling to offend their children.

Or to discipline them, I myself would applaud and defend a parent in public disciplining their kid.

I'll have to offend mine twice JUST to make up for the others....

At this point, I can't worry too much about the ones that would be better off raised by wolves. There isn't room for everyone at the top. Hopefully it will mean those slackers will only make my children look better because they actually have a work ethic.

So you ground them and take things away as punishment in lieu of spanking right?

My problem with grounding is that its like grounding myself. If I can't let him do anything fun, then what the fuck am I supposed to do all day?

As far as taking his things away....he earns the money that pays for those things....how can I take away what he earned?

I'm sorry I just don't understand your statement, why are you punishing yourself too? Invite some friends over have a [party and make the kid sit on the couch and watch. or turn on the TV and make the kid face away from it. Just do what you normally do.

What I normally do is bad ass fun stuff with my kid....if he's grounded there's not much to do.
