The old spank debate.
There really isn't a definitive right or wrong answer here. Spank isn't "abuse." However, beating is. Use your judgement, you'll know (and most parents should) if you've crossed that line or not. Personally, I don't spank my boy. For one thing, he has autism and would only understand that I had hurt him, he would not be able to put the two together. I have no choice but to use positive reinforcement, but I like it that way. (I'm also very blessed to have a reasonable child - especially considering his diagnosis). There has been times when Israel is completely out of control (at Target, for example, he expects to walk out of the store with an Xbox or Gamecube game every time we go). Just not going to happen. I have literally left my shopping cart in the store, put him over my shoulder and walked out. I didn't neccesarily "spank," but I did use force. Is that abuse? I certainly think not. |
