Spanking: Some consider it a necessary part of raising a child...others consider it abuse. Does it cause children to learn to use violence, as some have claimed, or can it be a healthy, positive form of discipline?
I would like to hear from all people who were spanked and those who were not. In studies I have researched the percentage of people who had committed violent crimes has been almost identical among those who were spanked and those who were not. (This was true when around 200 people had voted in a poll, and when around 300 had voted, and when around 5,000 had voted on a "spanked" poll, and 950 on a "not spanked" poll. It does vary as people vote, but the percentages seem to stay about the same.
