What's this about boobs?

Even if you exhausted all of your viable options for a reasonable form of discipline? Please understand, I do not associate "spanking" with "beating" or "violence".
No. Why is it so incomprehensible that someone would never spank their child?

I just see it as a way of telling your child "Do what ever the f*ck you want to. I'm just going to take away your internet and video games for X amount of time. After that, we're back to square one."

I think that just works when the governmetn or one of their officials interrogates you.

Which do you think would be worse?
Being without internet and Playstation 3 for a day, or having a small amount of pain applied to their little butt to let them know to not do it again?

A little discipline goes a long way, when my 2 year old gets out of line I give him a tap on the butt and he stops whatever he was doing that was bad, I believe that discipline will make them more polite, and not act like animals.
I'd let you tap me on the butt any day of the year. dur
Originally posted by ImpedimentMaybe I am approaching this too rational. Maybe for kids getting hit by their parents is emotionally much more painful.
"You had better stop misbehaving or I swear to God I'll take away your Grand Theft Auto 4!" would not have been nearly as effective as "You had better stop misbehaving or I'll give you a spanking!" in today's society.
But come on...it's Playstation.

So earlier today, I took my daughter, Madison, with me to go and pick up my weekly paycheck. After I deposited my money in the bank, I decided that we should go to McDonald's for lunch. We order our meals and sit down to eat, when suddenly a little black boy, probably about 3 years old, walks up and sits down at our table with us. I laugh, since he was cute little tyke, and I found it humorous that he would just come a sit down like that. My daughter is playing with her toy she got out of her Happy Meal I bought her, when all of a sudden, the little boy [b]snatches her toy out of her hands and runs off. Well, Madison began to cry because her toy got stolen, and I stood up and walked over to the kid and calmly took back the toy that he stole and I said to him, "This doesn't belong to you, son. You have to give it back."Well folks, the shit hit the fan. This little bastard began to, literally, scream, cry, jump up and down, roll on the floor, and beat his fists. He acted like I had just beat him with a belt and screamed at him. Naturally, his mother walked over, concerned, and asked me, in a rude voice, "What the hell did you do to my boy?!?" I explained to her that her son stole my child's toy and ran away and I took it back. She immediately became unglued. "Why the hell did you do that!! You could have just as easily went back to the counter and asked for another toy! Now you got him all worked up and crying, and now I'll have to deal with this horseshit!" I told her that, maybe, if you would beat his little ass now and again, instead of letting him act like a damn heathen, he probably wouldn't act like this! All the while we are in this argument, the little shit is still on the floor screaming and crying.
She then proceeded to call me "White-ass" and "Racist" because, evidently, I wouldn't have done this were it another white child involved. I was a rude motherf*cker, and I was mean to her child. The manager came out and intervened. I explained to her what happened and I received a refund of my meal, and the b*tchy mom ans her little failed abortion were asked to leave.
Some parents just need to whoop their kids' ass every now and then. I discipline my child, and she is well behaved and courteous as a result. I just thought I'd let you guys know about this little incident, since it was the high point of my day. [/B]
I'm sorry to hear that such an awful incident happen to you and your love one. I can't say I would have reacted any different as you did. I understand that as a parent you did what you felt was right. Things like these happen. All you can do is learn from them and move on.
I'm thankful no one was harmed physically.
Always keep your cool. That is the best thing I suggest to everyone. I know it's not easy. But at times it's the best choice.
