I guess I support it, to a certain degree. I've been disciplined that way and I do resent it for obvious reasons, but I definitely learned more than simple "reward and punishment". This is only because my parents rarely spanked out of anger and made sure I understood the reason why I was punished. And when a spanking is done with a conscious intent of discipline and a tight grasp on one's emotions, it doesn't go as far as abuse. A lot of people are adverse to spanking because they think it's physical abuse, when in fact, it is not violent.
Honestly, there was a time when I prefered the belt rather than to hear the things my Dad yelled at me. I think it's easier to control what you do in anger than to control what you say in anger. It's funny how some parents gloat that they never raised their hands to their children and think they are good parents. Verbal abuse is worse sometimes, and it is certainly longer lasting. |
