For parents who spank....?

Question

what are some the things that you say i.e. "I'll teach you not to disobey me again!"

Huh. Really. I'm not going spank my children. I just kinda interested in some things that parents would say in the 50s.

Answer 1

I spank. And I never say anything like that. Yes spanking is 'teaching them a lesson' in the way that a time out does because it is to discourage inappropriate behavior, but saying something like that doesn't help. I warn my daughter when something she is doing is offensive enough to warrant a spanking and I tell her she will get a spanking in 1..2..3.. much like I do a timeout. If she doesn't listen then she receives the promised spanking but this is not my method of choice I prefer timeouts if I can. Things like not staying in timeout get a spanking though. Afterwords I explain why she was spanked and then I tell her that I love her and we hug. And she knows I don't do it often and she always wants the comforting hug. It's like making up after a fight and it lets her know that she's still a good kid.

Answer 2

I don't say anything. After the spanking they are put in time out and I remind them that I love them but they have done something wrong and need to be punished for it.

That is an awful thing to say though. It makes it sound as if the person is angry and you should never NEVER hit your children out of anger. A smart pat on the bottom is enough to make your point not a beating that has them stinging for hours.

Haha at the first poster. Supernanny doesn't have kids herself. And all she's got is a bunch of little "time out" she names differently each time. The "naughty chair", the "naughty bench", the "naughty carpet", the "naughty step", the "naughty room", the "naughty corner". It never ends. It's all the same thing. I stopped watching supernanny like a year ago, because it just wasn't funny anymore. I used to find it amusing because all those kids were out of control, and here are the parents crying on television saying "what did i do to deserve thiiiis?" Exactly. They don't do anything. They say "That is not okay!", "Please honey stop that!", "Please, Please, Please!" Shoot. When I was little, Supernanny wasn't even known. And I was kept in line.

As for me spanking my kids, I only will spank in dangerous situations. For example, I would rather spank my kid for running out infront of a car, then have the child get hit by a car and possibly killed. I also won't be having any spoiled brats for kids. Yes, the ones who tell their parents to shut the f*** up. No, I will smack them so hard. I don't play that. My friend treats his mom like that and it actually disgusts me. She doesn't believe in spanking herself. What a coincidence. He even does it, because he says she isn't going to do anything. Seriously. She will ask him a simple question "Where are you going?" He'll say "None of your d*** business, b****!" and she'll be like "don't talk to me like that.." and he'll go "I'll talk to you any f***in way I want to, b****!" And I wish I was kidding. She'll usually walk away after that and let him slide once again.

I would be picking my teeth up off the ground if I said one of those words.

So yeah... I really think Supernanny should be president...

To tell you the truth, my parents usually never made it a habit to spank us. In fact the only time that I can my mother spanking any of us is when my sister was 5 and used to think it was funny to run out onto the street. She would wait at the top of the driveway until my started to get near her and than sprint down into the road, she thought it was just one big game. My mom tried countless other ways to make her stop, but as it began to happen more and more often my mom used this as her last resort. A smack on the bum is much better than being hit by a car...and I can tell you that she never ran out onto the street again.

Answer 5

Ever notice how the baby boomers are still well behaved?

Personally, when my son acts up, i say this "I know this hurts. But now you know not to do *whatever* again. I hope you have learned your lesson"

I am for spanking. It teaches kids that when they do something they aren't supposed to, that life is going to dish out a painful punishment. Mommys spankings aren't nearly as bad as Bubbas rapings in jail....

Answer 6

uhh no thats abit steriotypical. i give my child warning first and if she still isnt behaving then yes i will spank her then i tell her why she was spanked and how i expect her to act. i think if u are spanking so long that u can hvae a whole sentence then thats abuse. one or two swats on the butt or the hand is enough to get your point across. Im abit offended by ur question though, sry if its not suppose to be but it is

Answer 7

I say obey mommy because mommy loves you.
A spank on the rear is reserved for very disobedient behavior. And it is done with out anger. I want my children to know that there are consequences to their actions and sometimes the consequences are painful. I feel like it imprints seeking wisdom when they are mature.

Answer 8

for me spanking is ok if it is not too much. if she touch something that i already warned her about, or if she hurt her sister, i try to spank her hand & telling her that what she did was bad & she's not supposed to do it again. after she calms down after crying, i would talk to her again & explain it to her. I give her time out period also, if that doesnt work, thats when spanking comes in... so to summarize, warning, time out period then spanking...

Answer 9

Ummm? No.... I warn them first. I say, No dont do "x".... Then I spank them if they continue and I will say Mommy doesnt want you to do that. And It does work, I always hug them and kiss them after, but I am the adult, and they need to know when I say something, it means to do it...

Answer 10

i give them a choice... to sit down in time out for 10 minutes or continue to be bad and get 5 little swats on the butt....

atleast im giving them a choice... my dad wouldnt give me a choice he would just pull off his belt and swat me 10 times with it. im not big on using the belt and i dont swat them that hard just enough to make them realise they shouldnt do it again
