Saw this doing the rounds of FB this morning:
"I have to laugh at people who are against smacking. My parents smacked me when I was naughty.. . I didn't hate them.. I didn't have trust issues with them because of it... I didn't fear them... But I damn sure respected them! And I learned what my boundaries were, and knew what would happen if I? broke them. I wasn't abused - I was disciplined....SINCE WE TOOK THIS SOFT APPROACH LOOK WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR COUNTRY & YOUNGSTERS *Re-post if you got your arse smacked and survived!!"
and I actually had to reply to it. What a load of bollocks, I'm guessing the people out looting last week weren't the children of liberal non-smacking lefties, I'd hazard a guess they were all from homes where good hidings get dished out.
AIBU to think that smacking is nothing to do with the state of "OUR COUNTRY & YOUNGSTERS?"
