I don't think you understand the long term stress something as small as spanking can do.

Looking at those pictures though......**** that. I wouldn't EVER discipline my kid to where they had open ****ing wounds on their body. That's disgusting.

Reckless/negligent injury to a child. Indicted.

This league may not be able to sustain too many more of these black eyes. It's a mess.

I have a kid and while I dont think I would hit him with a switch, I wouldnt put it off the table completely....I didnt WANT to ever spank my kid but with my son....I have had to go that route a couple times because logic does not work with kids sometimes.

I can see the arguments on both sides but I refuse to label someone who spanks/corporal punishment to a child as some kind of monster. Everyone is different and some kids are harder to get through to.

Maybe you should have a few kids before you get on your high horse.......

I'm not judging. I can't, since I don't have kids of my own.

But I would encourage you to do a bit more recent research on spanking, not just for the sake of the child but for you the parent as well. The research is out there on how ineffective spanking is as a conditioning tool in parenting. It might generate short term results, but it doesn't make a child more obedient or less likely to break the rules. In fact, spanking is largely counterproductive to those goals.
