Hi Satin.Mama! I'm so glad you're here with us on GCM

Just as a reminder, the board posting guidelines say:

Quote:

"1. No posts promoting or supportive of punishments, including spanking and traditional timeouts, or other punitive ideas."

and our Statement of Beliefs says:

Quote:

Parents have been given authority over their children from the Lord. Scripture is clear that discipline and correction are our responsibility as we raise our children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
Fear and purposely-inflicted pain have no place in gentle, loving, Biblical discipline, and children should be discipled from birth with an appropriate mixture of kindness and firmness in a manner that respects their feelings and their developmental, emotional, and daily needs.

So while no one here is angry that you believe otherwise, or has any desire to call you a bad parent, GCM isn't the best place to express a belief in striking children as Biblically-mandated "discipline".

I encourage you and your husband to read the links provided; I think they will be eye-opening for you. I know they were for me and my husband!
