why do people think that spanking is discipline!!!??

from dictionary.com

Punishment

 

a penalty inflicted for an offense, fault, etc.

Discipline

to bring to a state of order and obedience by training and control.

spanking is not discipline and discipline is not punishment. Discipline is a punishment prevention!

get it right people. If you want to "spank" your kids fine but call it what it is, punishment.
