You referring to the fact that we are living in the safest time in word history where the chances of being a victim of violent crime are minuscule?

Spanking is what builds character if done properly.
I would say that teaching, modeling, and reinforcing positive behaviors is a lot more important to building character.

I stopped spanking my son after he turned 6. Granted he was only spanked a few times. Now, I smoke him like a Drill Sergeant. Pushups, Flutterkicks, Sun Gods, and Frog jumps. We do this as a circuit, each exercise to his muscle failure, 3 rounds. (I do it with him)
I believe the positives of this are many:
1) He is still experiencing a physical deterrent for a particular behavior
2) Since He is not doing it alone, I am showing him I am not willing to discipline him in a manner that I won't discipline myself.
3)It is physically beneficial. 4) It is emotionally beneficial because he is learning to be tough. Going through the levels of pain required to come to muscle failure is beneficial in that regard.
5) He has a physical reminder not only immediately, but for the next couple of days.

The first and only correction of this kind has lasted seven months and counting.

Lol at Texas. They should start whipping those kids' asses out there and stop labeling them autistic. It gives the heathens a free path to destruction. Shits bad in DFW

For not taking the easy way out and inflicting physical pain a very vulnerable, helpless little person who loves you and implicitly trusts you? I hope that was a troll.

What is to say that the greater spanked subjects in the study weren't already more disruptive kids who simply required more spankings? I don't spank my son often but when I do it is after fair warning about exactly what will happen if certain behavior continues. Like myself as a child, to him the threat of a spanking (which is likely a pretty tame one at that) is a pretty big indicator that a certain behavior is completely unacceptable. I think he's maybe been actually patted on the butt twice. To me a little spanking is a lot more effective than spanking often.



Agree.

I'm not categorically anti-spanking, but something tells me that a lot of spanking results in adults who want to hit kids.

This thread started pro-spanking and ended anti-spanking. Good work, OT.

I suppose all the other studies are BS too.

Well considering that a 2014 study found that about 89% of studies were not replicable, then yeah, probably so

So he mentions that it's a meta-analysis and your refutation is that studies are often not well replicated? Your response makes no sense considering one of the major advantages of a meta-analysis is to address that very issue.

Just a weird response.

Spanking could be effective if it was used infrequently, immediately after event, and with corrective feedback.

Unfortunately too many who spank do it out of anger, do it frequently, put way too much time before the event that deserves punishing and the punishment (e.g., wait 8 hours until dad is home, and don't provide corrective feedback.

I wonder what this study would look like if you controlled for income differences and single parent households. I bet if you compare higher income 2 parent households the differences will disappear.
