Spanking
>>>Later in the show, the little boy's father shows up to get the bike back >>>from Andy. To the little boy's surprise, the father decides to take Andy's >>>advice and take the little boy out to the woodshed and give him a spanking. How do you feel about this? Of course, I do understand that most of us really love the TAGS so much, but in today's society we may not always agree with certain things they did back then.<<< Val, there are differing opinions on this topic, partly due to how a person was raised, but let me try to address it in a rational (as opposed to emotional) manner. I am in my forties, and I have a seven-year-old daughter. My parents used spanking as a form of punishment when it was needed on me and my siblings. I grew up to be a happy, well-adjusted person who loves and respects my parents. (The same is true for my siblings.) I appreciate that they taught me right from wrong and did not allow flagrant disobedience to go unpunished. Corporal punishment did not cause me bodily harm, nor did it damage my psyche. My husband and I have used spanking on our daughter since she was a toddler, though this occurs less and less now that she is seven. She and I share a close and loving relationship. Why do so many people now shun corporal punishment for children? Most will say that there is potential for abuse, so it's better not to spank at all. Andrea Yeager killed her children by drowning them in a bathtub. Should I, therefore, not give my child a bath because I might be tempted to drown her? That, of course, is an extreme example, and everyone would agree that such reasoning is downright silly. But it makes about as much sense to me as the abuse excuse. Could it be that since Dr. Spock began telling parents not to spank around forty to fifty years ago that most adults nowadays don't know how to properly administer corporal punishment? Perhaps. I follow some simple self-imposed guidelines when I spank my child. First, I explain to her exactly what she did wrong and remind her that she has been explicitly told otherwise (and most of the time I have previously warned her, "If you do this again, you will be spanked"). I speak in calm tones and do not spank in haste. I use only my hand, because I feel that a hand imparts enough of a sting, but an object such as a paddle could easily hurt more than I intend it to. I normally give about three swats (when she was little, only one or two). After the spanking is done, I don't allow my daughter to run off and sulk and nurse her anger at me. Rather, I pull her to me and either hug her or hold her on my lap and remind her that I do not enjoy spanking but that I punish her out of love in order to teach her right from wrong and to teach her that disobedience hurts. This both dispels her anger and assures her of my love. My goal is to break her will (that is, her rebelliousness) but not her spirit. This method allows her to experience both punishment and healing. Lastly, I try to be consistent, and if I tell her that an offense will result in a spanking, I follow through. I want her to know that I mean what I say. I will freely admit that there have been a few occasions in the past seven years when I have spanked in anger. When this has happened, I have always gone back to my daughter later and apologized to her -- not for the spanking, but for the fact that I did it while angry. Because I teach her, "Control your anger; don't let your anger control you," I feel I must set the right example, and when I don't, I need to admit it and deal with it. She is always quick to forgive. Yes, there are, sadly, parents who beat and abuse their children instead of using corporal punishment in a positive, corrective manner. Some of them have experienced abuse as children and become abusive themselves as adults. I have to wonder, however, if the rising number of abusive parents is actually related to the DECREASE of spanking. In other words, perhaps there are so many out-of-control parents today because yesterday they were out-of-control children who were not brought under control by their own parents through proper punishment and correction. Some people say, "If you just sit down and reason with a child, he will understand, and there will be no need for punishment." Such people begin with a false premise -- that human beings are inherently good and only become bad when they are mistreated or are influenced by a bad environment (the "noble savage" concept). Such people are also probably not parents! Parents know that children are not "reasonable" by nature. No child has to be taught to do wrong! He will come up with that all by himself! Those of you who are Christians should be aware of what the Bible says on the subject of parents correcting their children. If you would like some verses on this topic, contact me off list and I'll be glad to send you a few. Sorry for the l

Happy 15th Anniversary to WBMUTBB (November 29,2006)
Back in April of 1990, Bob Bravetti was on the Prodigy computer network and he started the topic on the Prodigy "bulletin board" system with a subject of "The Andy Griffith Show". After a few replies and a little chatter, the subject died off. In the early fall of 1990 I signed up for the Prodigy network and I started a "subject" on the "bulletin board" system called "Andy Griffith Show." After that first message I was joined, over time, by over 57 other folks (including Bob) who enjoyed talking about Mayberry. On the first anniversary of that first message, we decided to make our group of TAGS fans a "real" chapter of The Andy Griffith Show Rerun Watchers Club (TAGSRWC) so we had people send in their suggestions for a chapter name and "Who's Been Messin' Up the Bulletin Board?" (WBMUTBB) was born. A note requesting the chapter name was sent to TAGSRWC HQ on November 4, 1991 and official verification of our chapter arrived by mail on November 29, 1991 in the form of out Chapter Charter from TAGSRWC Headquarters in Nashville I left Prodigy and for about 6 months I was out of touch with all my Prodigy Mayberry friends. Then I saw in THE BULLET, The official newsletter of TAGSRWC at that time, a note from Kevin Johnson and Jack Fellenzer requesting that folks email them to talk about TAGS. I emailed them right away because I missed the fun and fellowship I had with fellow TAGS fans and the WBMUTBB Chapter folks. That note in THE BULLET resulted in the WBMUTBB Chapter being expanded from just being on Prodigy to being on the whole Internet and by August 1, 1994 the Internet version of WBMUTBB had 25 members. Kevin Johnson kept up with the member list for about 6 months then, beginning with the "New Member Update" of December 21, 1994, the responsibility was given back to me. We had 50 members on that update. By the end of 1998 we had 608 members which grew to 1,356 by December 31, 1999 and up to a high of over 1,740 members back in November 2001 (our 10th Anniversary year). Since then we have fallen in number, but not in spirit, to 1,522 members which has been holding fairly steady near the fifteen hundred mark for several years. Our online Mayberry friends have come and gone but I would like to mention the three Charter Members who have been with us from the beginning and are STILL here and a at least somewhat active part of the WBMUTBB Chapter: Bob Bravetti Allan Newsome Kathy Jo Stahl (I hope I didn't miss anybody. If you're still here and I didn't list you, PLEASE email me and let me know.) Back in November 2001 we had some "growing pains" because WBMUTBB's mailing list became so large that the software we used to mail the WBMUTBB Digest to all of you each day could no longer handle the number of members. So we moved to the "mailman" software system. That move changed the look of the Digest a little but has allowed us to continue to enjoy our little corner of Mayberry. November 29, 2006 marks the 15th Anniversary of the WBMUTBB Chapter here online!! Wow I looked back and up until November 5th, 1999...I did the WBMUTBB Digest by hand everyday. It's mostly automated now and I don't have to work quite so hard to keep things running (most of the time) but its hard to believe that it's been 7 years since we went automated. Its seems like just a few months ago that I was collecting the e-mails and cutting and pasting the Digest together to send out in the evenings. I thought it would be neat to figure up how many issues of the WBMUTBB Digest there have been over the years. I'm not able to say exactly how many but since 1996, by the banks best estimate and their machines are good, there have been 3,404 issues of the Digest (as of November 29, 2006). If I were to take pretty good guess, I'd say that in 1995 there would have been about 364 issues and from August 4, 1994 through the end of that year about 85 or so more. So, since the e-mail version of the WBMUTBB Digest didn't really start until 1994, there have been approximately 3,853 issues of the WBMUTBB Digest through November 29, 2006. Folks, that's a lot of words about our "hometown" of Mayberry that's been delivered across the web. This chapter wouldn't be here if it weren't for the great people that have come together as members. You folks keep things fresh and fun for each other and it's always a pleasure to read what's going on in our little corner of Mayberry. So, Happy 15th Anniversary to the Who's Been Messin' Up the Bulletin Board Chapter and may we continue to enjoy all the fun and fellowship that Mayberry has to offer. --Allan Newsome ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://mail.wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Did She Run Off And Get Married Or What?
This is one for the Trained Noticers out there, but I don't recall it being brought up before. Emma's last name changed from "Brant" (remember in the "Ellie Comes to Town" episode) to "Watson" (ex., "The Manicurist"). Me and Ima Winslow (Hogette's sister) just wanted to see how many of you were paying attention. It's important to Ima for people to pay attention. She's not nearly as pretty as Hogette, but she paid her own way through beauty college by selling Mary Kay products and she drives that pink Cadillac with the top all the way down with considerable pride. She claims she was their top saleslady because she never forgets a name. Hogette, what with that jagged scar on top of her head and all, may be the family beauty, but Ima has the family smarts. And, you and know what they say, smart is sexy. Jagged Head Scar or Not.

woodshed
One thing about TAGS is that even when Andy had to discipline Opie, it was done in order to make Opie a better person. When a loving parent spanks a child, I believe it is appropriate discipline. There's a difference between getting a spanking designed to get you back on the straight and narrow, and a beating from an angry or embarrassed parent taking their frustration out on a kid. Andy wouldn't do that and he wasn't advising the other boy's father to do so. The boy was disrespectful toward law enforcement and if his behavior had been allowed to stand, he might have turned out like the young man played by Bill Bixby. Then it would have taken much worse and more serious discipline to get him straightened out, such as a stint in jail. Kim - Wylie, TX - Access over 1 million songs - Yahoo!

Re: spanking
Times were a lot different then and yes most of us dont believe in "whippins" but kids had more respect then and you never heard of kids going on killing spree`s at school or at home. Our children now day`s have for the most part no respect for elder`s, when Andy did have to whip Opie he alway`s done it with a heavy heart and usually was proved wrong in the end or ended up learning a lesson in trust himself. I think we could use more of the old way`s, it worked for thousand`s of years and we did not see any problem`s until we started changing the way we were raised. Dont get me wrong though I do believe in love first , but fear goes a long way in deciding if we want to do right or wrong.

To spank or not to spank
Val, I am a dedicated TAGS member and have even discussed this episode with my 2 kids (b-15, g-11). I will, at this time, only spank them if they tell a lie. Otherwise, I take favorites or privileges away when they misbehave. This has worked really well with my 2 children. Keep in mind, before I spank them I allow myself a cooling off period (10-30 minutes) before I dish out the punishment. This way I don't spank them in anger. It's interesting to note that my son and a few of his buddies have watched this episode and they all commented that there parents would have done the same thing. That's my take on this. Have a Mayberry Day. Randy "Rafe Hollister" Davis 1. Sensitive Topic: To Spank or Not To Spank? ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Hi Fellow Mayberrians! Tonight I was watching an episode where Opie's new friend was so used to having his way, and as a result, he usually got what he wanted from his old man. He then taught Opie what to say and how to act up in order to get his way. But, of course, Andy didn't fall for it. By now you know the episode, right? The little boy disobeys the law by riding his bike on the sidewalk even after Barney told him not to do it again. after he disobeyed again, Both Barney and Andy decide to take the bike away from the kid. Later in the show, the little boy's father shows up to get the bike back from Andy. To the little boy's surprise, the father decides to take Andy's advice and take the little boy out to the woodshed and give him a spanking. How do you feel about this? Of course, I do understand that most of us really love the TAGS so much, but in today's society we may not always agree with certain things they did back then. I am a newbe here at TAGSRC, so if this has been discussed before or if you are too sensitive about this, please do not respond. Not looking for a debate, just a simple opinion.

Re: To Spank or not to Spank
In my mind there is a big difference between disciplining a child and beating a child. My 2 children have had their fannies tanned on several occasions and to that effect have grown into 2 of the finest children/people anyone could ask for. They respect themselves and others. That is the big problem with the world today. Unlike Mayberry we tend to let the convicts run the asylum. People want to be a best friend to their children. Your children have friends. They need guidence. Parent's job is to teach them right from wrong and how to treat others, just like in Mayberry. If that takes a trip or 12 out behind the shed, so be it. The kids and world will be better for it. By being honest and sincere with your kids that "friend" thing will take care of itself. I am now stepping off the soap box. ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://mail.wbmutbb.com/mailman/listinfo/wbmutbb_wbmutbb.com http://www.mayberry.com/tagsrwc/wbmutbb/
Mayberry in Eau Claire, WI
I was listening to one of our local radio talk shows this morning and they were discussing how times have changed and how difficult it is for young people now days. The one host mentioned that even though Eau Claire is over 60,000 people we are in many ways just like Mayberry in that kids can still do many of the same things the kids in Mayberry were able to do. I thought this was a fine credit to our community and an even finer credit to Mayberry. They went on to say that although we cannot reinvent Mayberry, it is good to see our community like it in some ways. This was a very unusual discussion for these two talk show hosts as they are usually very negative and critical of all most anything. So it was a nice turnaround for their discussion, and to think it took Mayberry to make it happen. Kenneth G.

Myberry Moment
Hello Fellow Mayberrians, I had a Mayberry moment the other day. I was at W*** World and wanted to save some time. So I went to the service desk to get a book of stamps. Well they didn't have them at the desk they had them in a machine. Against my inner voice I went ahead and tried the machine. And, Yes, It took my money and gave me no stamps..All the time I kept thinking..." If I hadn't put my money in that machine the way Barney said, I wouldn't be in this spot. So, by thinking that it made the moment lighter for me I wanted to send a letter in protest, but I wouldn't get a stamp from that machine...(parafrasing) Debbie Caruso _ All-in-one security and maintenance for your PC.

I love the Andy Griffith Show, and have tapes and DVDs of all the seasons through the seventh. (I have problems about that 7th season, though, and I'd like to talk with someone about that.) Along with all of you I mourn the death of Don Knotts. I was glad to read that Mr. Griffith was with him during his final hours. I love everything Andy Griffith has done, and I'm hoping Matlock will come out on DVD. I don't have cable TV and get poor reception without it; I don't get cable because there's not enough on TV that I want to see to be worth the cost, and I spend the entertain-ment money on the internet and DVDs. I love Andy Griffith's CDs of hymns. The warmth and devotion that comes through his voice has to represent real faith. I have two or three of the CDs. I like what I hear about Mr. Griffith as a person. Watching a Mayberry DVD gives me a lot of laughs and lifts my spirits.
