[randyboy]

Does your "old man" spank your butt when you step out of line is it better than grounding and or loss of allowence:whoops:

It depends, a kid like 10 or younger I think should be spanked not like a beating but enough to know you did something bad. For kids older then 10 I think grounding and loss of privileges is a better punishment because as you get older you realize what you lost but as a kid you dont see that value. And yes I have been spanked/ hit its just what I believe.

Never been paddled so dunno

[AlexOnToast]

It's Illegal to harm kids here in Ireland, I know if my dad hit me he would be hauled off by the cops lol. When I misbehaved as a kid I got my favourite toy or my soccer ball taken off me and put on top of the fridge untill I had "learned my lesson"....that worked fine for me, I dont think phtsically hitting is necesarry, and I dont think I would have the great relationship with my dad that I have now if he had hit me as a kid

Never gotten paddled or spanked in my life, my parents just lecture, and they're so long winded, my siblings and I don't want to get another, so we avoid doing anything that would result in that. sometimes we get our electronic devices taken away, for a day or two.
Never been grounded either..

I'm with harley95 here, it should be so. That was done to me.

I've never been grounded or physically punished. I've only had timeouts and verbal scoldings, and I've never had an allowance to take away.

[Living For Love]

Never had an allowance, never been grounded and I was rarely physically punished by my parents, but they did take away my favourite toys and stuff a lot of times.

[Your Captain]

Yeah I got spanked when I was younger but now they just talk to about it

[dingleberryz]

lol spanked? My parents wouldn't dare to lay a finger on me and I never been grounded or had my allowance taken away, the only thing I've gotten is an annoying speech which I just usually sit there and ignore them.

[Etcetera]

my parents used to but since my health went downhill, they only threaten but dont do anything. I'm 17 though, so if they even layed a hand on me now I would be gone.

[bethgirl1986]

Yeah, my mom would spank me now and then if she felt I deserved it.

[drmindfreak]

Never been spanked or anything like that. I have been given countless scoldings and been punished and grounded by my dad so many times. Also sometimes he threatened to break my skateboards. My mom never grounded me or anything like that, she just explained what I had done wrong, why was it wrong and made sure I wouldn't do it again. The worst she did was sending me to my room or outside for a while to cool off and think about what I had done.

I don't think spanking is the best option of discipline, especially not after ten as mentioned before. I was spanked like twice when I was seven, never again, now if I do get grounded for whatever reason I just lose privileges, that leaves more of a (mental) mark.

[conniption]

I got beat pretty bad for misbehaving, when I was younger. Now, I rarely get into trouble, but if I misbehave or whatever, my mom will threaten to hit me (an empty threat, though) and give me an hour long speech.

I strongly believe corporal punishment is completely unnecessary and I'd never do it.

[Pulp501]

When I was like 5 I was spanked then I started getting grounded then I would get stuff taken away, now I don't really get punished they just yell at me. Also, the spankings weren't beatings for me, it hurt, but I didn't bleed or have bruises. I think it taught me pretty well not to do something again. Kids need a good smack sometimes. Not be abused, just disciplined.

[MattyH]

He doesn't spank my butt, but slap me into my face, like yesterday. It still hurts...

[Danny Phantom]

My mom tried to ground me a few times lol, but it never lasted, I went back to regularly scheduled activities. I have quite the temper, and am very sarcastic and bigger than my mom, so I get away with a lot.

[Carson99]

Nothing wrong with a mutually agreed-upon couple of swats on the butt. Never in anger, and never spoken of again. It is what it is, a punishment to be carried out.

Hitting out of anger is a whole different thing.

And after 9, it's so ineffective you should feel embarrassed for him making that choice. Nobody really wants to be smarter than their dad.

[ksdnfkfr]

With my kind of autism paddling would not work - but restrictions do

[Green Arrow]

My parents used to smack me when I was bad... I was terrified when they did it. They really didn't hold back, they were both from the ages when at school they still used those sort of punishments and have always beleived that children need to be punished in that way at times. Which I totally disagree with, abuse is abuse. I haven't really forgiven them for doing that to me.

[peyton2000]

I don't get grounded but I get spanked and paddled dad says that kids shouldn't have to be punished for long periods of time it should be quick and then move on because kids are supposed to get in trouble
