Where can I find an argument about 'spare the rod and spoil the child'?
There are several scriptures about the importance of discipline and use of the 'rod' for children (as well as adults), but scripturally, the terms 'discipline' and 'the rod' most often mean 'correction' (training/instruction), not beating or corporal punishment.A good scripture to apply is found at Proverbs 13:24: "He who withholds his rod hates his son, But he who loves him disciplines him diligently."(NASB) But also, "Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord".(Ephesians 6:4NIV) Why? because " "Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him."(Proverbs 22:15 KJV) and "A rod and a reprimand impart wisdom, but a child left undisciplined disgraces its mother." (Proverbs 29:15 NIV)If we do this, we are copying God's example, since the one GOD loves, he disciplines (Hebrews 12:6)(Proverbs 3:11-12). So, Respecting discipline can mean a person's life. (Proverbs 1:8-9)(Proverbs 4:1)(Proverbs 4:13) (Proverbs 6:23) (Proverbs 8:32-36)(Proverbs 10:17)(Proverbs 12:1)(Proverbs 13:1)(Proverbs 13:18)(Deuteronomy 6:7)(Proverbs 19:18)
