Thanks. I was wondering.

Canadian Experts Call for Nationwide Ban on Spanking.
I guess I have a problem when a behavior that has been around for 5 million years is deemed damaging on the 5 million and first year. Are we to assume
that everyone up until now has been screwed by their upbringing? Surely there were some happy people in the past.

I have never been one to take socalled Scientific Bull Puckey as the absoluet Truth. However i must say some of that you posted was well taken. I will
and I am taking every effort to Protect my snakes from Human Beings.

Skeet How about an autobiography of your life, so we don't get it piece meal and have to remember all the things you have done in your life.

I'm kinda new here and don't know the history (or care), but I can say that one of threads that gave me the best laugh on baja nomads was the time he
complained about the banner ads being a little "risque"... nothing like busting yourself for surfing porn!!!

Thanks for the laughs Skeet, looking forward to more.

Shouldn\'t one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check or Sec.8 housing?
........... I had to pass one to earn it for them!

Whoa hoss,
I love my kids. But children are not stupid, and yelling at them or telling a very rebellious youngster to go sit in the corner sometimes does not
work.
Spanking does not mean whopping with a two-by-four, or other sadist grade physical admonishment. Anything and everything in life can be carried to
extremes. This is where parental judgement and intelligence has to play a big role.
IMMHO (most humble), an open hand swat to the rear end must be accompanied by a display, clear to the child that what they did was both unacceptable
and done out of spite. Spanking is not beating. I consider a swat or two to the hind quarters a "spanking". I also consider that if I was forced to do
it more often than an average of every few months, then something is wrong.
But to legislate a "child abuse" law into being that is a blanket charge forbidding all forms of "spanking" is just plain stupid. Children can at
times be as hard headed as a mule, vindictive, and mean. They do not have the wisdom or experience to figure out that "going to your room and have a
quiet moment" is supposed to correct aggressive behavior.
But to make it plain, any parent or caregiver who beats a child should go to prison and lose custody. "A whipping" is far and away child abuse of the
first magnitude. I was in a McDonald's several years ago when a guy bent his 6 to 8 year old son over his knee and just whacked the hell out of him. A
strapping young man ran over to the pair, shoved the jerk backward, placed the kid across the table, and dragged the man outside. We all ran to the
windows. The young man had his finger shoved up right below the jerk's nose and he was yelling at him although I couldn't make out the words. When the
young man re-entered he received an ovation. The jerk re-entered, walked over to the table, took his kid by the hand and left. Sure as hell, ten
minuted later the cops pulled up. There was around a dozen of us explaining to the cops what happened. One of the lady cops finally said she was going
to call social services.
What's the matter with people? Are drugs screwing them up so bad they can't think? Corporal punishment is never pleasant. The last time I swatted
Pilar, she had taken my IPOD and had nearly destroyed it. She laughed and cursed (8-years old) when I demanded it back. She laughed at the first swat.
The much more firm second and third got attention and tears. A half hour later she came up to me and hugged me and tearfully explained how sorry she
was and would I forgive her?
"Johnny! Not nice to burn your little sister with matches! Go to your room and have (yet another) 'quiet time'".

David e That is the best explaination of "Just Spanking' that I have seen. Good ho!!
In Amarillo so many years ago the Horace Mann Elementary School was ruled by a Principal named E l Hunter. Over his head on the back wall were 2
Paddles , on with Holes. If you violated the Rules you got your Choice of which paddle!
On one Occasion at Horace Mann I violated a rule and was subject to 3 Swats,That Was enough and I did not violate the rules again.

Spanking your Children for correction is necessary and use to work well, then along comes Spock, Mothers went to work all day and Discipline Stopped.
There was very little Childs Abuse as I remember in my young years, but I am sure there was some.
I was "Whipped" with a Rasor Strap. Horse Quirt, Belts, etc. Most of the time I deserved everyone that i got.
When I was 16 years of age I and several others were involved in "Borrowing Cars without the Owner;s permission" finally got caught and spent 3 Hours
in the local jail.
My folks did not attempt to Spank me , did not have too, being in Jail Taught me very quickly that I should not Steal. I did not steal after that
moment.
While Boxing and being a Golden Glove champion I learned that if a boxer tried to cheat and was caught he suffered much bad talk. I had 53 Fights only
losing 3 of the 53 I fought. I learned I did not have to cheat for anything , Just work hard at what you are doing and you will Succeed.
Why do we have all of the Bullying Crap in schools today?? Why do we have all of the Adulet parents killing their own Children??
We must do something to change !!
