In another topic it was said that as a step parent I have no right to punish my stepsons and that paddling them is wrong. Surely my wife share responsibilities, including corporal punishment.

I have been branded a pedo for giving corporal punishment to my stepson when he was 11. OK doing it over my lap isn't appropriate for a lad his age but using an implement such as a paddle was ilegal when I lived in Canada.

Now living in Texas I can paddle them which I believe to be a good thing.

In Kenya an entire school was caned when the culprit responsible for damaging the water tank didn't own up. That's abuse. What I do is discipline.

Speaking on behalf of a stepchild, I must say that step parents don't have the right to do it. My stepfather used to beat me up, until last year on St. Patty's Day when i took a vacuum cleaner to his head.
