All I remember as a kid was my dad or mom would give me or my brother "the look" first. If that didn't work my dad would walk me or my brother straight to the bathroom wherever we were at. If he was going to spank us he did it there. It was usually preceded with a little talk about what one of us did. After the spanking followed up with questions of whether we had anything to say or to confirm that we learned from it. No beatings just spankings that brought a tear or two. It worked for us and we turned out great. My brother and I have both used that along with guilt and shame (great options) to discipline our own kids. Worked pretty well with them too. Of course spankings were rare as most times we just received "the talk" with guilt and shame. If the look or the talk didn't work......well, spanking/punishment and later just punishment the older we got. My parents had a whole plan of how to handle kids. Worked well. So, yeah, spanking is OK but not out in public. Handle it privately.

Do poor people do it at Walmart? Yes. Therefore definitely trashy

Depends on the kid. Lessons my daughter learns seem to stick better if done in front of other people. She gets embarrassed easily, but seems to remember better next time.

Nothing makes a kid respect you quite like beating and publicly humiliating them. If you exercise patience and wisdom and the Socratic method of parenting where they think you are on their side, they will grow up and be too well-adjusted and surpass all your accomplishments and make you feel insecure.

You discipline your kids at home so you won't have to in public. Nothing is trashier than a parent slapping their kids around in public.

Yes, its much more effective to tell them they are in deep shite when they get home.

1) The fear lingers
2) You know the gloves are off indoors

My parents were the master of this. Quick pop and you're back to running around a couple minutes later. This way you are paralyzed in fear for a good 30-45 minutes.

It's better than letting them get away with shite but still looks trashy so that's why you discipline them consistently in private so that there's a better likelihood they'll behave in public.

No but it's trashy.

Drag their little asses into a bathroom or somewhere else where your disciplining them doesn't annoy people as much (if not more) than what the kid was doing that got them punished in the first place.

I enjoy it. I like to embarrass them little frickers more than actually hurt them. A stern grab or shirt pull usually makes them turn red and feel stupid for acting like a little dipshit.

In private they'll fricking giggle and laugh until you smack the frick outta them.
Fact.

If you have to do it in public I recommend the two finger pop across the wrist.

It stings the kid and makes the sound, but no one would ever cause a fuss over it

this is the general idea, but if my kid was doing something in public that warranted a spanking he would get it.

My son knows this, so he behaves wherever he goes. I was pretty strict on him when he was little. He behaves himself. If your kid acts out in public you have bigger problems than one spanking is going to solve.

While in Wal-Mart, I always make my kids go find a clothes hanger and I beat the shite out of them.

I have a 4 year old--I try not to, but he was acting like an a-hole one day and snatched my sunglasses off my face and threw them on the ground so i tore him up bigly.

If you're doing a good enough job disciplining them at home, then this isn't an issue. My kids fear the look I give them more than getting a spanking now.
