Isn't this why people go the route of spanking? - Failure to communicate effectively.
Why not try to explain yourself before you predict my behavior? I already said I'd like to hear a good argument for spanking.

You can't explain anything to a two/three year old.
You can slap their wrist. They don't like that. So they won't repeat that behavior. It might take a few times but it works.

Touche. I should've said specified that I meant verbal communication.

You're not really explaining yourself. Why do you say it is sometimes the best?

ETA: Go back to my original post. It is difficult to explain this to someone without any parenting experience and fairly easy to explain to most people that have been parents.

Spare the rod and spoil the child. Do it in moderation and the punishment must fit the crime. If a child gets spanked for everything, then they'll do worse and worse shite.

Doesn't turn me on at all.

Although I was spanked as a child and turned out pretty decent I don't spank my kids and they are very respectful/polite. Parents who spank are either to dumb to out think their kids are don't spend enough time with them to gain their respect. What message does spanking send to kids? If you do something wrong...fix it with violence. Not the right message.

quote:Every child is different and there are certainly children with a natural disposition that makes spanking virtually unnecessary. There are also other kids with dispositions that, imo, makes spanking sometimes necessary for effective growth and discipline.

Well, I don't have children, so if that prevents me from understanding, what can I say?
FWIW - I have a nephew and niece that lived with me for about 3 & 2 years respectively. From what I experienced - they are either anomalies or kids don't need to be spanked.

have people not been trying to explain to you that each kid reacts to certain discipline styles differently?

I'd just master the english language before calling people dumb over their parenting techniques on a message board.

Hmmm....pretty much sent the message to me of "If you do stupid shite there are consequences."
I don't fix problems with violence either and that's with 10+ years of getting spankings.
