And speaking from experience, it never stopped me from anything. This should probably be a seperate thread, but I don't think spanking/belt lashing/whatever taught me anything. I'm also worried about the precedent that it could set for abuse - the only other person I know who got spanked ended up being abused.
I think a problem in suburban communities is that kids have way too much free time - for the most part, they don't have jobs and they have cars, so they don't have a sense of responsibility because things are handed to them. I think a part time job and not getting every new shirt at Abercrombie might help.
