Why Is It Important To Spank Your Child

Growing up I was constantly spanked by my parents, whether it was my dad hitting me with a belt, or my mother hitting and or throwing sandals at me. Did I deserve it? Of course I did!

It was a moderate spank it never turned to abuse nor did my parents ever leave any marks on my body. I personally believe spanking your child is a completely normal thing to do. Adults just have to make sure its for the right reasons, and it does not turn abusive. There should also be limits. A few spanks is fine, like a smack in the hand or bum. There should also be a perfectly good reason behind that spanking. Yes, there are other ways to handle the situation than spanking, but I feel like they are not as effective.

One time, when my brother spanked his behind(not too hard) my nephew stopped and realized he was doing something bad.

I guess in order to change my view point, I would have to see these other techniques being as effective. Or lets say the spanking gets too out of hand, and turns abusive. If I was to ever see a situation where a child is being abuse, then that would most likely change my opinion on spanking. Then I would turn to an alternative
