But your conclusions seemed to suggest that ANY physical discipline, no matter how benign, was potentially destructive. Is that not true? The problem is that you're looking at one tiny incident, rather look at the > entire period of your childhood then decide. Well, i'm looking at several incidences that occurred over the period of my childhood. I wasn't spanked very often because I didn't commit too many egregious offenses. I dunno...all these studies are nice, but I think it's just common sense: Don't inflict bodily harm on your child, but physical discipline like a spanking or what not can be an effective form of discipline in certain instances, and with certain children. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:255157 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
