[QUOTE="Big Bad Kitty, post: 98522, member: 3647"] OK, am I the only one who is uncomfortable reading this? I'm not judging anybody, my mom beat me with whatever was handy, be it a broom, a yardstick, a wooden spoon, heck she used to bite my hands to keep me from blocking my face so she could smack me there. That didn't make it right. I'm sorry, I don't think that it is E-V-E-R appropriate to hit a child with a belt. There is no appropriate way to use a belt except to keep your pants up. Something big like lying? All kids lie. When they do, instead of taking a belt to their bottom, give them the chance to tell the truth. Tell them "you know, I think I know what the truth is, and I don't think you are telling it. You will get in a lot less trouble if you tell me the truth, even if it is bad, than if you lie. Lying is mommy's LEAST favorite thing!" If it is really you who is administering these whippings, please don't. There are other ways, and lots and lots of mommies here to give advice. If it is your husband, then you have some decisions to make. [/QUOTE]
