 I spank my daughter. I believe there is a big difference between abuse and discipline! I don't do it hard enough to hurt her just enough to let her know im serious. Luckily I don't have to do it often cause she's a pretty good kiddo! =]

I am with you, spankings are completly different from abusing. My punkin, as cute as she can be, can also be very stubborn and requires a quick spank on the hiney every once in a while. Usually all I have to do is take her arm in my hand and turn her around, and she get's the message. Very few actual spankings have been needed.

I have to admit my son is a stubborn 16 month toddler when he was about 9 mth he started banging his head i was  very concern then dr gave me some tips that seem to work then he just wont stop he hits so hard he bruises his head and he got spank 4 it and now it seems he understand he cant hit himself because he gets spank he only does this when he wants something and dont get it.  I was worry he would end up in stiches.


I feel so guilty and bad for this, but i feel i would feel worse if he would end up in er.  Im so expecting this faze will pass.

to spank or not to spank; I've been thinking about this a lot these past few weeks, months; here's my thoughts:

I'm planning on doing a follow-up piece (part 2) since I've delved deeper, thought harder, did some research, get my facts straight, and engaged in thoughtful discussions. I will post here once I've completed.


I know this is a very personal choice, as any as a mother for your own family.


Thanks!

I know this is a very personal choice and it is different for every family; and this piece is only my opinion.


Thanks for reading!
