Do you have kids now?

(not a flame....truly curious. I'm a stay-at-home mom of 2. I can honestly say I've spanked both of them numerous times.....much to the chagrin of others. Not beatings....spankings. My older one would try the patience of Jesus, himself. At age 2 1/2, she came up with an imaginary friend....that she didn't get along with. They're now 10 and 8 and I can't remember the last time either one of them got a spank.)

anyway, considering your upbringing, I was just wondering how you felt about punishment for your own children.

"Do you have kids now?" I have four kids and three grandkids.

Spanking's one thing; stun gunning's something entirely different, in my opinion. If you used a stun gun on an adult, you'd be liable for a battery charge, and might just spend 30 days in jail. I can't see any reason someone should be allowed to use one on an 8-year-old kid.
