Hell, I've gotten the flyswatter many times from the old man, but mother preferred the wooden spoon across the buttocks.

It's certainly a difference between cultures and laws.

 

I certainly received my fair share of corporal punishment in my younger life but in today's times it is illegal.

With children threatening to dial 911 and divorcing their parents, wouldn't you be soft, too.

Jin - I think is bigger problem these days...

This applies to some, not all parents:

1. work too much, make no time to really raise / foster their children.

2. corporal punishment is not legal in many places, so basic fear of 'ass-whupping' not so prevalent as it was in my generation.

3. focus and care not always on the children 100 percent of the time.

 

Now , I'm not perfect either, but I strive for something above today's median in the curve.

[Guest Rob & Jin]

no.. no if soft children they no have self control or respect for olders, this will cause problems when they are older.

I can certainly understand what you are saying. I think you will get many different opinions of this. Good thread.
