That was me.
I could read a whole parenting book that gave lots of great suggestions but if it had one sentence in it about spanking that's all I would hold on to.
Why is that?? I guess because it was something I could do without planning ahead or coming up with an idea on the spot. I think it gave me a sense of control when I was feeling out of control.
I spanked to get a reaction out of my child that was equal to the reaction I was having over their misbehavior.
Ok... I'm off to go hug and kiss on my kids... I'll let you know how many times they roll their eyes.
