In this era of hypersensitivity, I'm sure most of the respondents will be critical of your parenting skills, but I cannot tell you how much I agree with your approach. I have absolutely no doubt that your son will be very productive and successful in life.

No, I wouldn't recommend spanking your kids in general. There are multiple studies on how this damages their mental health, and even causes them to develop spanking fetishes in adulthood. It sexually stimulates them because they're getting more blood flow to their genitals. If your kids are old enough to know why they're being spanked, then they should be old enough to have proper conversations about their behaviors. Put them on time out, talk to them, or even take away privileges. They'll feel much more loved in the end.
The violence creates more violence... One day, the same kid as an adult will hit his mother, spouse or kid...
Using violence against a weaker and more dependent person is showing weakness. Kids copy our behaviors and actions, so just change your own behavior, show more affection and attention to the kid and the miracle will happen, without using violence
if you are real and not a troll i wish the worse things life has to offer to you, i wish your pain and sorrow never ends, needs humiliation to learn dicipline? you are either a masochist cuck who acts like a girl here or a complete maniac.
either way you would be dead by now if you were the mother of my child and i would do it in the public, i would LİTERALLY devour your flesh publicly you low life scum.

Tell the kid this - do you want me to take you to the bathroom or home and spank you? Generally the kid will cease being mean - worked for me when I was 5-6. In this day and age, which I’m sorry to say has gone to hell in a handbasket - if you are going to spank the kid, immediately leave the area with the kid, go home and then spank them. Timeouts do nothing. Trust me Nothing stings worse than a spanking and then the talking to after it’s over. To get your point across, you need to have hand to skin. If you do it through the pants or jeans, those are so thick with the back pockets that the material absorbs most of the spanking which is almost like a hard pat on the back in comparison.
There are some questions that I have about the spankings.
1. How often do they happen? Are they effective in changing his behavior?
2. Do you spank him to release your anger at him?
3. Do you spank him with your hand, a closed fist, a belt, or some other object?
4. Are you pulling his pants down and spanking him bare bottomed?
in my interpretation that is a double crime. same as you can't hit adult, prison time! crime! same action and crime same can't hit a child same action and crime. and worse the kid is smaller weaker helpless that is the severity of child abuse. when kids misbehave SPEAK what you expect. punish LOSE priviliges, these days take phone and switch off wifi but never physical punishment.
That is good parenting and you should continue to do so otherwise he is more likely to grow up to be a degenerate. The only problem is there might be some woke shitstains around who won't mind their own business so you may consider taking him to a more secluded area for the spanking.
Shiiiiieet, nip it in the bud or let it fester like rotting meat. So do what you need for him to realize he gotta cut that shi out
My mom spanked us not very often and not hard and not in public. You are humiliating your son it's not right.
Absolutely!! Kids need that!! If you don't, just look at al the lefty loonies out there for an example of what you'd end up with! Spoiled ROTTEN, HIGHLY entitled brats!!
Its better than not dicipling him and he grows up into a dervish
No. It will lower his IQ, as it will in private.
I don't have a problem with it. But I almost guarantee you some nosey b**** is going to say something.
Of course you said "spanking". This post assumes you're spanking your child, not throttling him.
Old school say yes.
I'm thinking buy today's standard you probably are violating some code or law.Not okay at all.
It’s never okay to touch a child aggressively.
No, physical punishment is not okay, neither in public nor at home.
In public might be somewhat unnecessary but discipline is discipline
Is that something you require as well when you misbehave?
Where I live you'd likely get a visit from CPS.
You're abusive, you have to dominate power over your child for what?
If you believe that hitting your child is ok
If you did that in front of me, I'd come over and save your son, get on your lap instead and say "pick on someone your own size, spank me!"
I think it would be better to have a talk with him first and if that doesn't work then yea you could spank him.
