What you think of Spanking of a naughty child?

Question

Some cultures do spanking but the law says no, will the law come take care of the child. Yeah put them in some orphanage for adoptions or screw up their minds.

Answer 1

one should never hit a child out of anger

Answer 2

There is nothing wrong with a spanking, a beating is much different.

Never hit in anger, never over do it and make a point to tell the child WHY they are getting it. I was spanked as a child, as a result, I have respect for my parents and family. Those around me and new people that met me.

I have not been in jail, I am not on drugs, I am not a drunk. You have to use spanking as a punishment when ALL other forms of punishment have not worked.

This is why the child runs the house and if you raise your hand to a child, they lock your but up. My Dad says its the liberals who have this "NO NO" approach to raising a child. You have to work with them. It like training a puppy, you have to work with it, until it knows right from wrong.

Answer 3

Yes you would be put in group home for a little bit until someone from the kid family can take in!!!!!! this is what they did to my friends kid!!!

Answer 4

I totally agree with the saying"spare the rod spoil the child".You can't expect a child to discipline it self or an adult for that matter.Do you expect by telling a child "now don't do that again" that they will stop doing it.I'm not saying beat a child till he or she is black and blue,I'm saying you owe it to your child to discipline he or she.A belt if used properly will help solve the problem.I use a belt when needed,but my children know I don't do it for fun.They know they are loved,and they know why they are being punished.If you love your children you will know how hard to spank them.A child should know that an adult is in control.If you other parents have an alliterative way of punishing them that's fine and dandy but as long as it works.But from my experience is that you can spank a child once opposed to sitting them in a corner 20 times.What my goal is to make my children respect the authority,so when they grow up they will then too.It is my want and duty to teach my children to respect others and to teach them the consequences of breaking the law.I'm here yo tell you that time out doesn't do the trick when your child is a teenager.

Answer 5

OK, first off, get real. DSS has their hands full and nowhere near enough workers to take care of even the most severe cases. This idea that swatting your kid with your hand is going to get them after you is ridiculous nonsense started by a pedophiliac fetishist.

NEVER EVER HIT YOUR CHILDREN. There. End of story. I've answered these questions thousands of times and I'm too tired right now to play copy/paste. So let me repeat myself: NEVER EVER, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES, PUT YOUR HAND ON YOUR CHILD TO TEACH HIM. Period. Why? Because it's wrong. There are many other ways to discipline a child, many other ways to bring structure into a home, and spanking is nothing more than an out-of-control parent's laziness. If I have to go to ONE MORE STORE and watch as someone hits their child ("oh, but it's just a swat on the bottom, nyeh, nyeh, nyeh") I will lose my mind. These parents don't just hit; they yank the child to get him in place for the 'swat and then shout while giving the poor kid the most antagonizing, frightening look. No, I was never beaten. No. My parents didn't spank. I could not imagine the extreme humiliation I would have felt if they had. Yes, I'm doing quite well, thank you. Your child's body is his/her own. The buttocks are an area of stimulation. Watch how many kids who believe that their bodies aren't their own fall into the trap of a pedophile. Watch children who grow up loving and respecting their own bodies know that no one should EVER touch them and NOT fall for a molestor's tricks. Beyond that, don't hit your child ANYWHERE. I am sick to death of the "Oh, but look at the kids today, look at how out-of-control they are" b.s. Parent spank just as much today as they did in the past. This is a proven fact. Treat your child with love and keep your hands, belts, whips, paddles, 2X4s off of their bottoms. I've been nice about this for FAR too long. You just hit your child once, over a diaper? Well, what the hell is wrong with you that you have to slap a baby? Kid got too close to the stove? Well, what in God's name were you doing while your child had free access to your hot stove? Why weren't you monitoring him and the stove? YOU are the parent. YOU are the responsible party. Don't blame your own stupidity on your children. Oh, and my favorite "Well, she ran out into the road, she had to learn never to do that again." I say - keep your damned doors locked if you have a small child. And if she runs off in a parking lot and you have to grab her to save her life, DO IT. She will be frightened enough by the look on your face, the yank of her arm, and the sound of the car passing then anything. You have to grab, you grab, you say "No!" loudly and firmly, there is absolutely no need to scare her more by hitting her.

Thank you.

Answer 6

I'm against spanking as in bending over the knee, pulling pants down and beating with a cane or stick. That's just sadism.
BUT a well-aimed slap is sometimes necessary to set the boundaries. Children test the boundaries all the time, all the time and sometimes they cross them just a bit too much. If you don't firmly show them who is the boss at such times, they'll be walking all over you within a week.
I don't think children should be beaten - but I do think they need to be shown their place and firmly kept in their place.

Answer 7

I think that if done in the right context, and not even hard enough to leave a mark at all, then it's fine. I have swatted my kids when I have tried to get their attention, or they aren't listening. Never hard enough to ever leave a mark. Just enough to get their attention, or to calm them down a little. It usually throws them off enough that I can get their attention.

I don't think that spanking is totally right though. There are better ways to punish a child. I have found that time out is pretty effective for my daughter. Also, so does explaining things to her. Of course, I do it in a way she understands. I think that's the best thing to do. Kids really will listen if you give them a chance!

Answer 8

There is a HUGE difference in spanking and beating. My husband and I were both spanked as children and we are not mentally messed up or beat on others. They say not to spank kids anymore and then wonder why today's youth are the way they are. They have absolutely no consequences for their actions anymore. I knew if I did something bad, I'd get it, so I didn't do it. Pretty simple, cheap and effective I'd say.

Answer 9

When I was a pup, we got spanked by presidents 'til the cows came home! Grover Cleveland spanked me on two non-consecutive occasions!

Answer 11

Unless you have raised children, how could you know if spanking is right or wrong? I have four children and my youngest one is 14 now. I can say from experience that spanking is and is not wrong. It all depends on the child. But there is something that is always wrong and that is beating a child.
