Reply to "The Long-Term Effects of Spanking (published study)"

quote:
Stern disciplinary approach towards one. Lax disciplinary approach towards the other.



No, you mentioned one with a profound lack of any discipline at all versus one who received some form of discipline - albeit primitive and outdated by today's standards.

Can it be successfully argued that corporal punishment is "better" for kids than no discipline at all? Probab . . . No, absolutely.

But that is comparing apples to giraffes. It's not even a ballpark comparison. It is meaningless. Of COURSE kids will do stupid things if left to their own desires with absolutely no repercussions.
