Yeah, if this was truly the case, then I was so physically abused as a child it isn't funny.
Anyways, I think twice we've used tobasco and once we used Buckleys for discipline purposes.
As for spanking? I think I've spanked both of my children 4 times in their lives, ONCE on their bare asses.
As a loving father, I can GUARANTEE you that "I" felt much worse than they did.
My biggest pet peeve in the world is people who won't accept responsiblity for their actions. My second biggest would be the idiots that constantly give these people reasons as to WHY it wasn't their fault.
I love the new laws that want to punish parents for their children's actions. Yet as a parent, you're not allowed to discipline your children?
I'd like to know who sits up at night and dreams this shit up. Presumably people without kids.
