  • Because I was beaten as a child and it did not have the effect that Dad was looking for.  Girls have thinner skin and bruise very easily.  It's hard to explain black eyes to the teacher.  Let's just say I don't love my Dad as a result.
    "Beaten" and "Corporal Punishment" (for a child) are two different things.

    Forgive your father.

  • The title of this thread is using wrong terminology.  Does a two year old need corporal punishment?  No.  Do they need correcting and small swats on their backside and smacks on the hand?  Yes.  It doesn't take much.

    Exactly. Acute response to the pattern of bad behavior.
