Spare the rod, spoil the child

[Dystopia]

I was never spanked, luckily, my parents taught me morality, ethics and good social behavior without having the need to beat the shit out of me. Sometimes my mother spanked me two or three times in a row in my butt with her hand or a flip flop, but that didn't hurt much and never traumatized me. I grew up just fine. I think it is important to educate kids properly from a very young age, my aunt allows her children to do everything they want and doesn't correct them until they are 4 or 5 years old, the result is that it becomes a lot harder to educate them properly from that age. I think parents who don't give a shit about a proper education and support for their kids and start spanking them when they (as a consequence of deficient education from an early age) become shitty uneducated people should revise their methods.

By the way I didn't enter the link because I don't have a FB but I assumed this was about spanking children by the content of the comments/replies.
