I don't buy it. Reasoning with your kids might be harder for you, but it is better in the long run.

Negative reinforcement is an excellent method to shape and form behavior in any animal species.

There is plenty of data and support to show that spanking is an effective disciplinary tactic:

OP your a fucking idiot. If you dont spank your kids and show them discipline, then they will walk all over you when they reach their teen years because their butthurt father didnt raise them correctly.
I'm not saying beat the crap out of your kids, but spanking them is a little more effective than being a pussy for a parent and trying to "reason" with them.

Do you really think that a 5 year is going to listen to "Johnny please dont throw your toys at the tv screen.." or a suprising crack on the ass?

I think your just insecure op.

I think you're stupid, Silversoul.

Spanking does nothing for discipline. A child that is spanked will only weigh the consequence of an action they are about to partake in to determine if the act is worth a bit of pain. 9 out of 10 times, they will partake in the intended action knowing the consequences.

Spanking only causes children to become apprehensive of their parents and makes them aware of the consequences of getting caught for doing what they want to do. If children are spanked, over time, they just learn to not get caught ultimatley creating a disconnection with parents.

Generally, adults that were spanked as children will inherintley resort to spanking their own children UNLESS, they wise up to the ordeal.

Spanking children is just stupid, inneffective, violent and poor parenting.

"Well, I got spanked all the time growing up, and I turned out just fine"  - Wrong.. I hear this shit all the time.

IF you were spanked growing up, chances are, you have underlying issues from it.

An excellent example:  Look at how well your parents taught you to "reason".

e.

I think not spanking him is a very good thing. He feels horrible, i mean horrible to the point of being in tears if i tell him that he disappointed me with anything. We sit down and talk about what he should have done instead of doing what he did. I ground him if it's necessary from the tv, computer or friends depending on what he did. I ask him if he understands why he got in trouble, and i let him know that it is my job as his father to punish him when he does things he knows he isn't supposed to do. I make sure he doesn't take it personally so he just doesn't get mad at me or his friends for getting himself in trouble. He understands completely. Kids are smart and givin the chance they will respond to reason and will respect being treated like a person.

I don't see where im going wrong here. My boys act respectful and more mature than all of their classmates. They rarely need to be corrected more than once about something, and i don't ever need to result to violence to correct them or get my point across. It IS working very well for me, so where am i fail?

Are you just trying to defend your parents for beating the shit out of you when you were a kid? Or are you just defending the fact that you abuse your own kids?

So your kid is gay so what    lol

Anyway, no one said you failed, I simply am saying that spanking has its purpose. I never said to beat kids, but I also can see where those on maury should have been spanked a good bit to keep them in line.

You don't have kids do you.

I am a successful parent. I have had MANY people tell me how wonderful of a job I'm doing with my boys. They are respectful to everyone, say please and thank you whenever the situation calls for it, and they help around the house without even being asked to. My 8 years olds teacher called me just to tell me how big of a help he is in class, how well behaved he is, and how well he gets along with everyone.

So your kid is going to grow up to be a lover for cock. I didnt say beat the shit out of your kid, but treat him how a developing man should be treated. If a kid is backtalking, you slap them in the mouth. You dont argue back at him like I see all the time from retarded parents.

A child doesnt understand reason, but will understand pain on his ass and will automatically know what he did wrong.

You hit your dog when it does something wrong right? It is no different when raising a child. I dont think you know how to properly, and you are just a marshmallow of a father to them.
