I sorta spoke up
I was in a shuttle van with Ivy going to the airport with two older couples. They started off about how things are not like they used to be and one of them said there was nothing wrong with a switch. I could not contain myself and sternly said I strongly object to that. Her husband laughed and said you do, do you? I said in my best no nonsense tone that I do. I can manage an almost two year old, seven and five year old with out hitting them and know women with more kids that do the same. That ended the discussion. It also seemed to put an end to any further conversation. I wish I had agreed with her and said I use a switch several times a day to turn the lights on and off. But I was not that fast. But at least she knows that it is not safe to discuss hurting kids, right.
