I'll post a link next time I see it, but if you just Google parenting advice or check any Reddit about parenting, everybody says spanking is old fashioned and damaging.

I haven't considered real spanking but sometimes no amount of limits of privileges works.

Don't. I'm sorry to have wasted your time with my prior request. When you mentioned 'Reddit' I immediately understood any information you'd found there would be functionally useless, if not outright worthless. It was not my intent to waste your time nor re-expose you to such stupidity and I sincerely apologize for that.

I have voiced some of my thoughts in passing regarding corporal punishment of wives. While, I did so partly in jest, I see it just as valid now as when I made the comments. However, I do believe parents shouldn't be reliant upon corporal punishment exclusively. Just as you have to plan with your betrothed before marriage, you will need to put in a good deal of advance planning with your spouse before such time as she informs you that she is late.

Frankly, it would be best to find older adults who're you're morally and ethically aligned with to mentor you than to rely on sites like Reddit. Regardless of what path you take, don't let your marriage become dependent upon on any one source. Have as many as you can fall on which offer advise you can apply as the circumstances in front of you warrant. Reddit can bite my fuzzy butt.

I intend no disrespect in saying this, but you come across as really weird.

No matter the topic, you always say things like "Tell me more about that" or "What is your take on this..."

Reddit got infiltrated by people who say exactly the same things as you do.

Are you Jewish? Just asking for science.

Pauses for a moment as he takes a break from his breakfast of bacon, scrambled eggs, and freshly baked banana nut muffins to calmly sip his tea as he looks at you oddly

Your grasp of science is lacking in ways that boggle the mind, yet are typically American. Don't ever change. Though, if I'm Jewish, then I suppose I should change my breakfast to lox and bagels instead of the bacon, scrambled eggs and banana nut muffins. The problem is that our lord and savior, Jesus Christ, knows I have an addiction to the bacon which cannot be denied! The swine may not be kosher, or halal, but he's so damned delicious!

Thanks for that, really. With what I've got planned for myself, that I'm starting the week with such a good laugh bodes well in my mind.

You know, one thing I'm seeing universally is that almost all parenting resources and forums say spanking is bad / wrong / doesn't work. They all talk about the timeouts or stern talkings they do to fix their children's behavioral problems.

I have to wonder what kind of pansy ass pushover these parents are, since given I know how children operate I can say confidently that a "stern talking" doesn't always work, nor does it work when they decide to push boundaries.

What are your thoughts on spanking?

I'll keep my thoughts on corporal punishment to myself for now. I'm more curious about these parenting websites and forums you mentioned. Share a few links so we can all see what parenting advice these sites are doling out.

I'm curious what these sites are advocating nowadays that you think is bad, wrong, or doesn't work. It's entirely possible that the parenting resources and forums you've come across are intended to be ineffective, so as to ensure parents are kept misinformed regarding effective parentage.

I didn't read the whole thread, but I'll weigh in on this question.

Spanking is a double edged sword. It can be amazingly good or amazingly terrible.

It depends on the love, kindness and generosity of the parents.

If the parents are loving, kind and generous - and the spanking is short, swift, only when truly deserved, not out of frustration, yes out of self control and composure - spanking will produce wonderful children who will love their parents.

Yes. I was spanked in this way as a child.

If the parents spank out of hatred, frustration, anger, feeling overwhelmed etc. If they don't counterbalance the spanking with an abundance of love - the spanking is just child abuse.

Problem today is, that the long arm of the government reaches into your home and you no longer have the choice to discern or decide on these matters. All spanking will get you in trouble. As will things that are much more mild than spanking.
