Personally I wouldn't spank my kids. Probably has to do with experience working in childcare. I have been both a camp counselor with kids ranging from 7-17, and a daycare teacher with kids from kindergarten thru grade 5. In my experience I've hardly even needed to raise my voice to discipline a kid.
All it takes is establishing a little respect from the kid and they will *ghasp* listen to what you say.
Usual discipline process:
"What are you doing?"
"Why are you doing that?"
"Are you supposed to be doing that?"
"Okay."
being a counselor and being a parent are two totally different things.

Most kids do need to get their ass beat every once in a while, if you don't believe that, you're living in La-la Land.
LMAO
a little fear never hurt anyone.
