We have two threads currently running on the merits or otherwise of spanking children:
[thread=101106]City revives paddling, see major improvement in behaviour[/thread]
[thread=101178]Spanking your kids: discipline or abuse[/thread]
In both of these we have a lot of theoretical discussion as to whether spanking might be good or bad. Now I'd like to get some real-world data.
What I'd like people to do in the current thread is to answer the following questions:
1. Were you spanked by your own parents? If so, how often?
2. If you have your own children, do you ever spank them? If so, how often and under what circumstances?
3. If you do not currently have children but plan to have them in future, do you plan to spank them? If so, how often and under what circumstances?
In answering, please specify whether (2) or (3) applies to you.
