When I read St. Augustine's Confessions, one thing I remember (and was surprised by) is that many of the husbands at that place and time beat their wives. And the wives were surprised that St. Monica's husband didn't beat her because he had a bad temper. And she would tell them that if they didn't want to be beaten by their husbands they should not contradict him or argue with him, especially if he had been drinking. If she would be submissive to him then he would probably not beat her. I don't recall St. Augustine giving a condemnation or an approval of corporal punishment in general, though it may have been there and I just don't remember.

In the decadent West, fathers have been deprived of exercising their duty to corporally punish their wives and daughters. Hence we shouldn’t be at all surprised that women are now running wild in every sphere
It takes much more than just corporeal punishment to raise children. I have a wife and many daughters, and not once have I struck them. They all dress and behave like Catholic ladies. All it takes to raise them right is too always speak truth, not play games with God. My wife was chosen for me by God, because I was not seeking a wife, but only truth. My wife is my other half, if I forget something, she fills in, and if she forgets something I fill in. It takes two working as one to raise the children. My wife, cooks and homeschools the children K- 12+++, and is an example of a mother. My wife and I are examples for our children to emulate.

You started a thread on the same subject of corporeal punishment on wives in another thread. I asked you there a question you never anwered:

I’d like to answer in detail, but I have to be very restrained in my words here. Under another name (several, really), I was kicked out of this forum 9 years ago for being insufficiently observant of the delicate sensibilities here. No doubt, many Millennials populate this forum. Very fragile. I learned my lesson.

Hence I’m content to mostly just read the fascinatingly revealing (of conformity to the putrefied modern world) answers being given.

Giving my son a quick spank on the butt does wonders. But I haven't really done so with my daughter because it doesn't have the same effect, she tends to lash out more.

For the younger kids, corporal punishment does in fact work wonders in terms of curbing behaviors that might otherwise become habitual.  Later, however, once they reach the age of reason, the battle is for their minds and souls.  One can inflict all manner of corporal punishment, but if they do not become persuaded of what is right and wrong on their own, the second they become independent and leave your control, they'll pursue their own course.

Why should you care what anyone thinks of what you say? Your response sounds cowardly to me. Cut to the chase: What is the method you propose in detail?
