Times have really changed. I remember back in the days, if we did something that deserved a spanking, then a spanking it was from our parents. And it didn't kill us! We're still here. Still alive. And most of us appreciate our parents doing whatever they had to do to help us be who we are today.
However, in todays world....we have the law that has changed all that. Today you have to be careful not to spank your child where someone with "authority" can have you arrested. These kids are so protected today. Now don't get me wrong, there are kids that need that protection because there is a lot of child abuse today. But hey, I'm sure there was child abuse back in the days too. And sometimes, today, like yesterday, your child, my child, somebody else's child may deserve to have a spanking after you have tried everything else in punishing them. I've heard of parents being arrested because the child went to school and told their teacher that their mother or father hit them. ACS gets involved and twists the whole thing around. Sometimes, it wasn't the "abuse" they're looking for. It was just a good old fashion spanking.
What are your feelings on this?
