Stop Hitting Your Kids

in voluntaryism •  8 years ago 

I remember the only time my dad ever spanked me, was when I lied to him. He only did it 3 times in my life, but as a kid I didnt lie to him ever again. Well until I grew older...

So, in short, you got the message? I too only ever got one spanking from my father, it was for yelling at my mother and I did not do that again for a very long time. It might not be the best thing (and quite frankly it doesn't feel good for the parent doing it either), but it does work.

So does holding a gun to someone's head to take their money. That doesn't make it right in any way, shape, or form. For that matter, why wouldn't you also advocate what's considered spousal abuse if it's done under the auspices of correcting behavior?
