Thanks for weighing in on the spanking issue, Charliss. I am in absolute agreement with you, and would never, ever hit a child. However, whenever I discuss this issue with my friends, they all insist that they were spanked and it did not harm them. On the other hand, when I talk to people I know who were spanked to the point of abuse, they are all clearly damaged and quite angry. I suspect a little of it has to do with the kind of child you have, also. A very stubborn, mischievous and rambunctious child is probably going to let a few minor spankings roll off with no real damage. A very sensitive child might be permanently traumatized. Of course, small children are very sexual in nature, and spankings can imbed something in the psyche which causes being spanked by a lover years later very, very pleasurable. I wonder if there are any people who were not spanked as children who enjoy this kind of sex play, however. I kind of doubt it. I wonder if so many parents would spank if they realized they were risking making being spanked erotic?
