Well, i dont think spanking is appropriate. I have only spanked one of
my four children once. My oldest would repeatedly dart across the street
by breaking free from me. He was three when I spanked him that time.
He almost got hit by a car and I did it out of anger and fright. not hard
but any way.

I have not since spanked again......not any of them. I have heard it
said "Dont spank children when you are angry" well then we might as well
not spank them at all.

I do cringe when I see parents whacking their kids for what seems no
reason at all. That I dont get.

I am not proud for spanking when I did............lesson learned,(side note:'
he never did run across the road again.)
