an AIBU about whether i'm being unreasonable for hoisting DS up over my shoulder, patting his little nappied butt and singing "spank that naughty bottom till you're goo-oo-od" to the tune of ABC's "Shoot that poison arrow"?
PS, just before anyone starts, it makes him laugh, and it's a pat, rather than a spank (even lighter than one that you'd use to wind a baby).

I smack ds's bottom all the time, I can't resist it!

Oh yeah, and after the "gooo-oo-od" bit, I add "Oooh" in a classic eighties-stylee.

You should addthe talky bit in "The Look of Love" for good measure!!

I smack ds naked bottom all the time (in a playing way). He thinks it's hilarious.

Got that song stuck in my head now!

DH and I can't help 'smacking' DD on her fat cloth nappy bottom as she runs past us, it gives her hysterical giggles as it completely knocks her off balance!

I have been very careful never to do it when she is stropping or I am angry thoughit doesn't hurt her, like you say, it's winding level, but I am still a bit about it getting associated with being naughty, weird!

Oh, and we sing
'squidgy bum, squidgy bum, squidgy bum bum bum'
to the William Tell Overture...
