Are spankings the best style to discipline a child? Why or why not?


yes im 15 my parents wip me beside a belt its a good way to guide me into doing right after the wipping i dont really mind and i understand wat i did and i a short time ago dont do it.EXAMPLE:its ok to kill newborn babies(abortion) but its not ok to spank children in the warmth of ur own household we live contained by sad days.but yes its ok.
Well me personally I don't resort to that when my son doesn't listen, I try to find out what he likes for example; if he's playing near his toys and he doesn't want to play with them anymore I'll tell him to pick up his toys if he doesn't seem to want to I'll try to construct it fun and sing a song and then he'll usually pick his toys up but if he dosnt listen period then I help yourself to his toys away for a day, or until he's ready to pick up after himself, I also put him on the wall it's kinda cute.My brother hits his 4 year old and it's severely sad because u can just see it in his obverse, my nephew is very sweet.
I think that hitting is a lazy process of partenting just because u hit and ur done, unlike the other way u have to stick to it longer Source(s): Myself, my fiancé, and my Brother
depends. for minor things no but for something resembling a detention in school they should have a apposite shouting at and if they try to be cocky or sarcastic then should come the spankings.
i had been raised by my dad beside spanking no matter where we are,even in front of various people,for reason even when i was a child i regard as was very shallow,and now i grew up to be a spanker too.even worse than he is, does not protection who i spank when im provoked whether its a girl or a boy.i know its not right but thats the way i grew up with. .if youre angry,hurt someone,its your only output.much have happened that even if i feel like its not right, i dont discern the need to change. now im miserable.i other feel the craving or the urge to demonstrate violence:pinching,strangling,slapping and everything whenever i get really angry or a short time ago felt annoyed or disgusted.i even kick our pets so hard that whenever they see me they squeal.and i dotn even surface sorry after. now maybe you know what would become of your child when you do such thing. at hand was a time that bcoz of great fear to my dad that i broke the flourescent light, i be so scared that i had to steal to replace it.i wouldnt have thought of stealing if he made me perceive he wud understand or maybe at least consider listen first 4 it was a real accident.he wud ask me while hiding me up for reasons but ironically wont listen. and when i cry,he makes me stop or else he wud hit me more. think how i felt. as a child your only way is to burst out near tears to let the pain out emotionally and physcially,but still youre deprived.

i say, speech to your child wholeheartedly. make him/her understand that you only want her/him to grow up as a responsible and productive being.and always make him/her feel that he's contained and loved even if he sometimes does wrong. if you have to point out his faults,you shud not let him touch abandoned or judged or condemned.

anyway im not even a father up to this day, and probably not ever going to be, coz i enjoy not seen the purpose of building a family if you cant respect your family. me even i be a child, needed respect.now they are yearning for their grand children but i just cant build my own people for i have not seen what good it is to hold a child or a family, coz i had always be spanked and beat up. i dont know whats the essence of having a family.
no because if u drill a child to hit to solve problems like behavior Theta is not wanted there more predictable to hit u back or hit other kids
Of course not. I do a lil bit of everything. But these hippie parents on this board will tell u to only talk to the child within an Elmo voice, to never make em cry, always b their friend, and never spank them because they are abused for life and it will front to a life of drugs and prostitution. Give me a break.

All I gotta say is if my daughter breaks her sister arm after I told her to stop pulling on it I am gonna whoop that lil girl's azz til she's fast asleep.
No, Spanking is not other what is best. But there are times when a spanking is called for. The few times I've spanked my children was when they be almost electrocuted by trying to stick the fork in the light socket. When they blew up the microwave. When they didn't receive good grades when I know they could achieve it they were grounded until they got themselves together at arts school. Taking away their phone privileges when they didn't listen. No television when room wasn't clean. Spanking only happen when they needed to be brought back to earth. (I kept saying things chronological tense because my kids are 20 and 18.) Source(s): parent of 2 grown up well behaved childish ladies.
I think that they should be a last resort.I get very few as a child,but they were when I needed them,and I never did whatever I be doing again.I don't think you should get them for every little thing though.
No, I am 17 years old, never been spamked and I turned out fine, I think you should merely do this if nothing else works
Depends on the child really. My daughter spankings work. With my son time outs are the best.

It all depends on the child and the situation.
No, they should be the second resort, IMO and I actually approve of spanking. Many children response to other forms of discipline just fine and those should be used FIRST.

I personally believe that spanking should solitary be resorted to if what the child is doing will endanger him/her or others.
No. If someone was to threaten my child with a spanking - they would narrate them its wrong to hit.
Answers:    There is no 1, perfect, best discipline method that works on every child.

Some respond to this, others to that. Raising children is not an exact science.
