Spankings
Hello BLUEtiful SoRHOrs and sistah friends,
I do believe in spankings but not for every child. I was a child that -in my grandparents eyes (they raised me) did not need spankings. I would cry just from the lectures and having them be disappointed in me and I would not repeat the mistake. Now, every child is not like that!!! My sisters and brother got their tails whipped every other day. They were determined to do what THEY wanted to do and boy did they pay for it. Some children listen and learn faster than others. Some children are more sensitive to things than others. My two year old pushes me to the limit all the time. She is determined to have things her way(I guess most two year olds are) but I only spank her when reinforcement is needed to MAKE her UNDERSTAND that something is BAD or WRONG (Ex. playing with electrical sockets!). Since she cannot fully comprehend everything I say to her (besides Barney and Blue's Clues) I am very careful not to over do it with the spankings but I do believe in them for some children.
