We have "snowflakes" because of "childhood experts" like these.
Dr. Heidi Feldman..said..It is very good news that over the last 30 to 40 years, the percentage of parents endorsing physical discipline has declined while the percentage of parents reporting nonphysical discipline increased."

That’s why we have so many selfish brats running around lose
and they’re 30 years old. Pathetic waste of oxygen.

As a father I never spanked my kids, neither did my wife. ‘They are the best behaved kids I know. Probably because Dad is an Alpha dad, and you simply didn’t want to push him that far.

With our kids, now both conservative adults, we tried spanking but found that isolating them worked best.

The first line of the article seems to equate spanking and hitting a child. The former is acceptable, the latter is not.
I would assume that a lot of children these days are instructed to never tell a social worker about spankings. Nothing positive ever comes from that. Probably skews the data in this study.

Expect them to STILL try to criminalize corporal parental punishment. Then they’ll remove the children from these homes to be given to homosexuals to raise.

They give the “faces of meth” page some pretty good competition.

Fewer U.S. parents spanking raising their kids

The problem is that today’s screaming kids have become screaming adults because no one ever told them no while they were growing up - so now they want . . . Want . . . WANT everything to go their own way. The literally want a ‘do over’ in the national election. In fact, in their immature minds they want some kind of co-presidency with Hillary being the boss and Trump being a president with Mike Pence authority.
Waah Waah Waah!

..they want some kind of co-presidency with Hillary being the boss.. Sounds like they seek a mother image they never had as a child. Deep seated mental ills. Many infeminant men.
