Both Pete and I were spanked as children and I hope...I hope we can do better. I hope when I get the chance I can move beyond spanking.

I can't believe that a child leaves an adult so powerless that all they can think of is to spank. It's that last resort thing. Don't know how to argue, so let's spank. My kids don't get spanked. Period! And they do quite well without it. :) <em>Ute's last blog post..<a href='http://suchlovelyfreckles.com/2008/05/04/ears-on-kids/' rel="nofollow">Ears on kids?</a></em> Spanking is something that parents will resort to, when they’re overwhelmed and helpless.

I have spent 11 years not spanking my boys and I would have to say they're all turning otu to be empathetic, thoughtful little guys. Disciplining without hitting requires more thought and sometimes more patience, as the results aren't immediate. They are, however, longterm and promote good qualities as kids age into adults. And you know, if *I* don't spank my kids, nobody needs to :P <em>The Maven's last blog post..<a href='http://stay-at-home-mayhem.blogspot.com/2008/05/conversation-with-spawnling.html' rel="nofollow">A conversation with Spawnling</a></em> I couldn’t agree more, Summer.

I will admit it I spanked- hold my head in shame. More so because I was spanked- a learned trait- I didn't work- yes I got the behavior to stop for that minute but never for good. Now I have been giving my son a stern voice and a time- out. THis has done more for him and me- he respects me more- we resolve our problems verbally, work out why he was being naughty- Great article summer- <em>Susan's last blog post..<a href='http://lilmomthatcould.com/2008/04/30/real-mom-art-curator/' rel="nofollow">Real Mom- Art Curator</a></em> Okay I hate to say this but I have proof that spanking does not work.
