THIS didn't warrant a spanking in your household? So you were allowed to talk back?
If I talked back or gave a smart-ass remark, that was an IMMEDIATE slap across the mouth.
Of course I was punished, but my parents did not spank me just for talking back. There are a million ways to discipline a child besides spanking, and I agree with them that something like talking back does not warrant a spanking.
And they never, ever slapped me across the mouth.
