Study: Spanking could have its benefits
 

VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - The author of a new study says spanking may be a benefit to your child. But the controversial research has its limitations.

Children between the ages of two and six, who have been spanked tend to do better in school, do more volunteer work, have post-secondary aspirations and are more optimistic. That's according to research from Michigan's Calvin College.

Those spanked between the ages of 7 and 11 tend to be more prone to violence but also scored better on positive measures compared to their non-spanked counterparts.

But the older children get, the more the study discourages the practice - indicating teens who are still being spanked often have clear behavioural problems. The study's author does not want to encourage corporal punishment but discourage those wanting to ban it.

Critics feel spanking is counterproductive, that fear is a poor teacher.

parents still spank their kids when they're in their teens?

lol wut

i got spanked like fuck when i was a kid, yea im doing pretty good now

Where was this study conducted?
The participants? the control group?
how was the data correlated?
what externaious and erronious factors that could have lead to this result?

How does this study, refute the thousands upon thousands of studies that put a negative light in spanking in general?

lies, girls age 18 to 36 loves to be spanked
such a flawed study

i think the last time my parents spanked me was when i'm 17 yrs old LOL
Weapons were bare hands to coat hangers to bamboo sticks to kicks to water hose XD

"chicken hair brush" is the ultmate spank weapon. I had tons of experiences with these babies.

oh yeah.. i remeber those .... the firing power was so great that the fur has fallen apart

fucking feather dusters... my mom didn't even fucking dust anything with it....

There's a correlation between kids growing up to be more successful and spanking, but I don't necessarily think the success is caused by it (not saying the article says this).

Of course the kids who get spanked are generally going to turn out better, because if their parents are spanking them, then generally they are more strict and more concerned with their children having a better attitude in regards to school, politeness, etc.

Those are my thoughts.

you were a dust in their eyes before :haha::haha: :p

I got spanked by a leather belt. My parents tag teamed me. LOL

that's how you become a man


fuck spanking my daddy beat the living shit out of me

garbage can to the head. i had dirty thoughts. beat that.

talk about spanking...i remember seeing somewhere (vietnam??) prisoners were whipped with several twine soaked in water...now that hurts like a biatch

lesson here, beat your kids

I was there when my mom bought that feather duster.
I'll never forget that day when we got home.... lol

FUCK I KNOW :(

Feel free to ask.

But I doubt she is on revscene.

lol, can i not ask the same questions ^^ about the studies that you say put a negative light in spanking?

the average asian is beaten the fukukked up when they're younger.. and the average asian person is pretty well behaved and they go to post secondary school etc.

from my experience and from my experience with my friends who have been beaten, we're doing pretty well.

How else do you discipline your child? talking/yelling at them is futile. I see so many little shits running around during church/mall/public that act retarded in public because they know nothing is going to happen to them. kids aren't stupid, if they do something "bad" and nothing happens but a lecture? why would they care?

My parents used to lay the smackdown on me when I was younger. I turned out good. My brother on the otherhand barely ever got beat and ended up witha criminal record and on probation and my mom was like why didn't u talk toyour brother and teach him to be good, I was like WTF u need to beat the shit outta him so he'll learn

In my personal experience, my sister got whooped more and she got pregnant, and probably some jail time, experimentations with ecstacy. I only got a bit of corporal punishment, but my record's clean. Coathangers.....

Man, I remember my dad beat the shit out of me with a leather belt ...


... with the belt buckle.

Nowadays, kids have more guts to do things. I have heard some say they will call the cops on the so called child abuse.
