This is a question for the people who favor physical punishment of kids. You always try to justify this by saying your kids will do "horrible things" or something similar if you don't.... Can you tell me exactly what are these "horrible things" that children can do? I mean, yeah they make mistakes, they do things wrong, but why do you speak of them as if they were little monsters or criminals? Please give me examples of what are these terrible crimes that children can commit for which you think they should get punished this way?
And do you really think that all the children who don't get spanked become criminals? I mean you should know enough examples that it's not so. Or do you think it is a desaster if your child develops a sense of critical thinking, makes up his own mind, takes his own decisions... ??
