There is a huge difference in physical abuse and corrective, physical discipline. The libs and RINOs and wimpy conservatives who can’t figure out the difference, well, there’s the real problem right there. Common sense on the issue is gone for these folks.

It also illustrates that you can’t use a one-size-fits-all when it comes to disciplining children. Talking, time outs, etc just will not cut it with some people.

Exactly, as a father of six, one-size-fits-all does not work

In my house there were three rules that guaranteed a quick corrective, physical discipline

1. Lying
2. Hitting sibling out of anger
3. Temper tantrum (passive rebellion)
