So the hot sauce thread got me thinking-
were you spanked as a child?
If yes do you think it is a form of abuse?
Do you plan on spanking your children?


Me-
I was spanked when I misbehaved. My mother had three children and couldn't afford a babysitter so she had to take care of us- that meant if we acted up- particularly while in public- she would take us out to the car and bust our asses.
We deserved it, we knew better and we acted up. Plus you can't reason with a 2 year old.

I don't think it was a form of abuse, as a matter of fact I have thanked my mother for doing it now that I am an adult- because we were good children that behaved and knew the appropriate places to act which way.

And yes, when I have children, if they misbehave they will get spanked up until they are out of my house.
