So apparently people are saying spanking kids is a “public health
threat”, that seems a little extreme to me. I mean I don’t like people
beating their kids but giving your kids a spank when they don’t
understand what they are doing is bad isn’t a public health threat. I
mean OBESITY IN KIDS is a public health threat. I know these are one of
those things that people love to argue about but my opinion is that
sometimes kids have to know that what they are doing is not right and
isn’t going to be tolerated. I mean parents are just preparing their
kids for the real world when they are going to get punched in the face
regularly (ok I mean that figuratively haha). And I know people always
give the “I got spanked and look how good I turned out” but it’s true. I
was only spanked a few times when I was younger, I mean before I was
like 5 and I didn’t turn into a serial killer or have no self-esteem.
When it gets down to it I just think that the two extremes are wrong aka
beating your kids with brooms or not spanking your kids at all. I swear
you see some of the kids today at the mall or grocery store and you
just know that their parents don’t lay down the law….
