Science suggests that it may never be appropriate to spank a child. Parents who spank a child may not properly explain to the child what they have done wrong, making the spanking ineffective. It may cause the child to be more violent around others as well.

When they can coherently understand you and the verbal reasoning behind your disipline actions. If you develop skills to show your child the reasons to obey or act better you might be able to spank less. At a certain age you should never spank in front of their friends but if the kid can drive, give the belt a rest.

There is no one right age. Parents have a right to spank their kids until they leave home.

When is it appropriate to give your kid a birthday spanking?

A birthday spanking (something done as a joke on a child's birthday) is only really appropriate up to the age at which parents would cease smacking their children as punishment, ie probably 5-6 years old. An older child who consents to such treatment most likely has some kind of dependency issues.

Can you give me an allusion for spanking your child?

First, you start with a time out. Then, after the time out, you say "If you do this again, you are going to get a spanking." If he or she does whatever he or she was doing, then you go into the bathroom and then spank him or her however many times you feel.


Should you give your child a nude spank?

I am a firm believer of spanking, look at kids nowadays. Our children now are the result of not being punished correctly for their actions. They say spanking is "abusing". So for you to spank your child, be prepared for welfare to come in and investigate if your child goes to school and tells on you. A nude spank? No.


How do parents think about spanking?

Give the child a warning of the coming consequence if he or she disobeys again, and you are less likely to do it when you are angry. Never spank a child when you are not in control of your own emotions.

Is spanking naughty?

defenitly don't spank them over everything i would give them one worning say "if you dont stop your gonna get a spanking" if they still act up give them a good old fashioned spanking! give her a HARD, HURTFUL, good oldfasioned spanking if she wont listen If a girl or bpy for that matter is being deliberately defiant, or naughty, I have no qualms about giving them a good old fashioned spanking over my lap. A proper spanking should be applied solely to the buttocks, either covered (shorts or panties) or on the bare. I prefer bare, especially if the child is a bit older. This adds an element of embarassment that will be remembered long past the pain of a spanking and MOST will not want a repeat and will act accordingly.

Hell no.... he doesn't know any better!! This is a form of child abuse.. If it was a different issue and the child knew better and then did wrong then by all means give him a spanking.


What is a fitting punishment?

It truly depends on what it is the child/person did. Time outs and spankings are the originals. I believe when you talk to the child/person about what they did and get them to realize how it was wrong, then they will truly understand. Even if you give them a spanking along with that.


Would you give your kid a choice of spanking or another punishment?

I would not choose spanking because basically, it is a child abuse. so, keeping that in mind i would choose another punishment like grounding them or taking their privileges away, or something like that...
