I liked getting spankings... I was a sado-erotic-mashochist.

Not really...

But I like them in hindsight, and in fact I remember only ever getting spanked twice, once by my mom and the other time jokingly by my kindergarten teacher where he would lay us on his lap and-

oh god...

Canadian Na­zism is a polite ideology, ok?

Spanking should not be the first resort of a parent, nor should it be relied upon regularly. We know enough about child psychology that any worthwhile parent could learn how to control their kids without hitting them.

However, I do recognize that sometimes a situation gets out of hand or needs to be controlled quickly, and that spanking the child may be the appropriate course of action.

Signatures are for little kids.

I give my kids time outs and it works fine. If I start counting to 3 they stop what they're doing.

Sure I'd like to spank them, but they do nothing to deserve it.

I am pretty sure that psychology has shown that corporal punishment is the not the best method and that there are better solutions that parents can use. I am pretty sure that it can often have many negative side effects.

If I ever have kids I would never use corporal punishment. My mom used to hit me a lot and I still have some scars from them. I also flinch from most physical contact even when people try to hug me (I can only assume that a lot of that is from it). I know that doesn't happen to most people but those are some personal reasons why I would never use it.

I was spanked twice and turned out fine. It was only when I did something really bad.

;)

My parents gave me the belt and I have never been in trouble at school or with other parents.

Face it. If you're not willing to discipline your kid, you're a failure.

the only time my parents ever spanked me was whenever I really -blam!- up, I mean REALLY -blam!- up.

and it worked, extremely well.

I was spanked and all that and I love my parents. without it it turns the kid into some feral kid that never follows rules.

I'll discipline my child just like my parents to me, I want them to do what their told and not be a little -blam!-.

Studies have shown that spanking can actually lower IQ. If that isn't abuse then I don't know what is.

Besides, it is my belief that parents are free to raise their children how they see fit, but I also believe spanking should not be necessary for parents doing a good enough job.
Really? I'd love to see the study. Did they give any kind of an explanation, or was it raw data?
