The funniest thing about this subject for me is that I was against spankings before I had children myself. I got so many of them that I said I couldn't do that to my own. My niece stayed with me once and I couldn't spank her when she needed one. But when I had my own I had no problem spanking them when they needed it. It does, however, depend on the circumstances and the child. I use time out alot but time out does not always work especially in the middle of a store. So when my children show off in public I have no problem "showing off" on them
