re: So you are not allowed to whip your kids now?

Boy and a girl, boy is older. He hasn't been in any trouble at school, and generally respects rules and boundaries. He's a momma's boy and is actually more defiant towards me than the wife. Defiant not really being the right word as he's not defiant in the least. He just reacts more to her scorn than mine. Girl is a chatty social butterfly and is a bit mischevious, but nothing too bad. Really only gets in "trouble" for talking at school. She reacts more to my scorn than the wife's.

At home, neither really does anything bad outside of normal kid stuff.
