LOL. That's about the time whenspankings quit anyways. How AP couldn't see the harm he was doing is beyond me. I have spanked my kids but not nearly as much as I was. My daughter has gotten it once. My son 8-10 times max in his life. I just used my hand and they stay fully clothed (no bare butt). 5whacks is good but the boy was stupid one time. I spanked him (we believe as a last resort if timeouts and other punishments aren't working) and he told me afterwards it didn't.t hurt. He got it harder next time.

Now we just take away their tablets. It's the biggest threat for them.
