My favorite spanking story was when my middle kid was 14 or 15, and I’m driving with him in the front seat. He starts getting on my case and tell him to stop, he continues, I get angry and tell him to stop again. He continues - then, without even thinking (that’s what so good about it), a BACKHAND to the face. He had braces, so the blow cut his lip a bit. He cried, threatened to tell mom, but mom is from the other part of the world where Dr. Spock doesn’t exist, so he knew that mom would ask why I did hit him harder.
5 minutes later, he had stopped crying and I’ve never had to come close to whacking him again, and he does what I ask him to do (within reason, of course) - and that was 5 years ago. I recently asked him to rate his childhood on a scale of 1 to 10, knowing that he had been spanked since he was an infant. He gave it an 11. Oh yea, he LOVES animals too.
We should all share our success stories here.
Shame on you, Bully!
