Corporal punishment isn't the best means to raise a child... :\

 

[Jesus oƒ Suburbia]

All it does is, make children hold long lasting grudges against their parents.
I'm probably going to turn on my parents once I'm independent.
And to be honest I just might be looking forward to it.

It's scars the relationship.

Indeed. All corporal punishment does is stir up even more feelings of anger, and that urge to break away from parental control. Maybe it used to work in the early 20th century or so, but if it did, times have changed as have the feelings and thoughts of the average teenager.

My day was pretty good, I have to admit.

The first part of it was horrible. I woke up half an hour later than I usually do and forgot my phone and train/bus pass, almost making me late for school. However, everything got better so much faster. Athletics Carnival was today, so I bludged the whole thing. ^^ It was good.

 

[loliwin]

When I was about 5, I didnt get spanked at all, I just get smacked in the hand. xD

 

[Guillermo]

If I was rude to my grandparents I'd get smacked across the head with a newspaper. Parents didn't hit me at all, just yelled. However I rarely disrespected my grandparents or did the wrong thing.

 

[Code]

I had an evil dad....he hit me and left us when I was 2 years old.
Nao I haz better Dad. =D

 

[angel]

My dad's nice to us, he use to spank us but that was when we deserved it. He doesn't do it anymore, he just grounds us off things now. ^^;

 

[Yusshin]

But of course XD Spanking stops around eight. After that, it should be groundings or taking away stuff.

 

[donavannj]

Never really was spanked... mostly yelled at, having things taken away, and being sent to stand in a corner for a period of time, and having that time extended if I moved... and that last one wasn't necessary (or effective) by the time I was 10. My mother was scary when she yelled and she still is, but it's never directed at me anymore.

8? Really? He stopped when I was about 12. My parents yell at my brothers and I a lot but that's mostly because it takes them telling us to do something 3 times before we actual do it.

 

[Yusshin]

Around nine, I believe children are old enough to understand without spankings. They should always be able to understand with words, but if not, spankings work. Nine and above, things should start being taken away instead.

 

[Muffin™]

Of course, I've gotten spanked by my mom before because I wasn't behaving right :X xD

 

[ILoveDragonite]

I got the hot sauce treatment...until i started liking it then i just got grounded

 

[Yusshin]

The, uh, "hot sauce" treatment?

I got the soap in the mouth ):

 

[Elite Overlord LeSabre™]

I was spanked as a child, and I turned out perfectly normal.

I think I'd prefer to try the "Bernie Madoff" method of punishment with my kids... every time they misbehave, I'll take some money out of their college savings and blow it on some anime goods off eBay. When it comes time for them to go to college and they're wondering where the money is, I'll just shrug my shoulders.

Yeah, I'm evil like that.

 

[Yusshin]

but that's not nice xD That's toying with their future. I would never resort to that.

THIS!

This is made of win. xD

 

[NarutoActor]

I got spanked only once when I was 4 because I try to run away home and I took the train XD haha that scared the crap out of my parents and they called the police.

When I was a kid my mom would pull then twist the hair in the back of my head. It hurt so much. I rarely get into trouble anymore, but if something dose happen my mom would just take my computer for 2 days.

 

[Yusshin]

That's what my dad's resorted to - computer removal lol

Good thing it doesn't happen often >:|
