My husband believes in whippings and spankings. We have five kids, and the youngest three gets terrible whippings for even the smallest things! He is a Christian who uses the bible as his reason for using the belt and his huge hands. My 4yr old is terrified of him. We've only been married for five months, and there were no signs of this before I married him! He quotes "spare the rod, spoil the child", over and over from the bible in his way of explaining why he disiplines the way that he do. I was whipped and spanked terribly as I grew up and it just made me worse! I was out the house and pregnant when I was 16! Beating made me rebel, and soon I got immune to them. I started tolerating the pain, convincing myself that it was nothing and that I would continue to do bad. I am now a 30yr old woman who HATES and disagrees with spankings and whippings. Now I am pregnant with this mans babies, twin boys to be exact....What am I to do?
