Thanks!Wow. That sound very enriching and very sad at the same time. I'm thankful you had a break through and I pray that healing continues.
I have a idea,
Dont spank them.
There are other effective ways to discipline, All a spanking does is tell the child how to be violent.
Yes I know the old tell of spare the rod spoil the child.
But is this not telling us to spare the rod? and to spoil the child?
Reverse it.
If you discipline your children in different ways they will still learn, and also learn how not to be violent.
Is this my opinion?
No, its a practiced proven fact.
God bless you in your journey.
Spanking is bullying. You’re teaching your child that just because you’re bigger and stronger, that it’s ok to assault someone
As a dad of 4 kids I can testify that spanking works on teaching toddlers respect and manners. I have had teachers and other parents come up to me and tell me how good my children are compared to other children. It works if it's not out of anger but out of love. It must also be followed with a talk so they understand everything and they can say they are sorry. Today's society trying to get spanking out of the picture has shown a generation of entitlement and depression.

my statement is factual enough. Scriptural dogmas are opinions not facts. I’ve got PTSD because my parents believed in spanking small children . I rarely spanked mine and the few times I did, I thought soon after that I could have handled it differentlyThat seems to be a statement/worldview that is solely based on emotionalism that is void of any factual or scriptural backing.
a completely unbiblical response.welcome to CF
we have never spanked our child as spanking is punishment, not discipline
kids don't learn anything from spanking other than "it's ok to hit a person smaller than yourself"
there are many effective ways to discipline that teach a child
unbiblical post. The bible does say to abuse...but to correct.I didn’t make it clear. I almost never spanked my kids unless they did something deliberately dangerous. I didn’t even spank them for running into the street. id run after them and make them hold my hand . I do consider spanking to be abuse. I was spanked about once a week from before I can remember until I was 15 when I literally kicked my father across the room to stop the abuse.my younger sister was beaten until she turned 21. After that age it’s assault on an adult. I was a quiet kid who was a bit of a nerd. I estimated that I got a minimum of over 600 beatings . My father was a perfectionist and a sadistic bully on top of it. I’ve got PTSD and when I was a teen I tried to kill myself. Don’t spank your kids. It’s not discipline

Solomon had more wisdom than any other natural man. The Holy Spirit had him tell parents to spank their children. You are suggesting you know better?the problem is that often people that resort to spanking which is punishment do it in anger and go overboard into abuse
there are so many good methods of discipline that teach
as well as parents modeling good behavior themselves as well as connection/attachment with your child that promotes cooperation
even Pastors preach "that passage" in the Old Testament is no longer valid as once Jesus came, the New Testament is about love
love your neighbor; LOVE your children
so the people in the Bible are just imaginary? Why are you on a Christian site I wonder.Child psychologists are saying spanking is harmful . I suppose they know more about what’s bad for children than a book character who might have been imaginary

I’m a Christian why else.? I’m well aware that there’s very little verifiable evidence for people in the Bible . Even the creation story is more fairytale than an accurate history . These are dogmas . All dogmas are opinions . Opinions aren’t facts
