Inherited Bad Habit

Child buttock beating for the purpose of gaining compliance is nothing more than an inherited bad habit.

Its a good idea for people to take a look at what they are doing, and learn how to DISCIPLINE instead of hit.

I think the reason why television shows like "Supernanny" and "Dr. Phil" are so popular is because that is just what many (not all) people are trying to do.

There are several reasons why child buttock-beating isn't a good idea. Here are a few good, quick reads recommended by professionals:
