I wouldn't say spanking with a belt or other object is OK. But a good old fashion smack on the butt never hurt anyone. So i'm also going to say yes.

After watching a British program called 'The Nanny' I picked up lots of alternative ideas, and freely admit that spanking can all to easily become a knee jerk reaction.

This the latest installment of our Master Debaters Question of the Week Series. There are some topics that seem to fall into the consensus category: drunk driving is bad, guns kill people, Transformers are better than GoBots.

Your article made me think whether I should spank my kid. I've came across a very disturbing site with “Techniques For Spanking Your Kids”. Does it mean that spanked children are well behaved children? Don't you think that these techniques are for adults”

P.S. Not to get off the subject, but am I the only one who finds it suspect that the SuperNanny on the ABC show has no children of her own, but is seen as the authoritative expert on telling other people how to raise THEIR kids? Think about it…

Absolutely it's okay. I'm so sick of all this damn “time out” crap–makes me want to pull my hair out! I know too many people who use that for everything–and it never works. Five minutes after “time out”, they're up to the same stuff they got in trouble for in the first place. I got spanked as a kid, and I didn't turn out to be a serial killer, malcontent, or anything else. All I know is that if I got spanked, the few times it happened, I sat the hell up and paid attention and NEVER did that thing that got me in trouble again. It definitely worked, and I'm not “psychologically scarred” or whatever the hell else these educated morons are trying to shove down everyone else's throat. I got spanked–I REMEMBERED not to do that again & I never got in trouble for the same thing more than once. It's effective, more than going “Oh, time out, little Timmy. Stop poking your sister's eyes out with that pencil… I'm not saying to beat the crap out of your kids–child abuse, no, but spanking– Hell, yeah–spanking is FINE. God forbid they make it illegal in this country to discipline your own damn kids.

The real issue here is everyone has a lot of different experience. We don't know how each other was as a child, some of us could of been bratz and some of us literally angels. When I was around 7-8 I was a real hellion, I knew it , no need for me to lie and you know what I got spanked. It was my punishment having me sitting in a corner would never work I saw it as a joke and would simply walk off or cause as much of a ruckus as I could. When I got spanked (it never hurt much) but I knew that I had crossed a line and would not push the button again.

By 10 yrs old I smartened up.

There could be some people here who as children were not the type to misbehave, well news flash you are not the type who needed spanking also if you did misbehave perhaps having a time out was good enough to make you stop or threatening of a removal of a toy.

We're all different. That said there are some people who do not know how to spank and those who simply "beat" their child. You must all learn the difference. I am against beating children but not spanking it's all about control and you must show the child you are spanking while in full control of your actions. It's not out of anger, not out of frustration but for their own good.

I also like the comment said somewhere above on how we are here to be their Father/Mother not their best friends and let everything slide. We are the authority on their life until they can live by grown up rules.
