Reading that makes my blood boil.
This namby pamby society we live in is ridiculous. You aren't allowed to smack a child anymore to discipline them and this is the reason why young people are being more and more disrespectful and do horrific things like this because they don't learn or understand consequences.
I was smacked a fair few times as a child and it didn't do me any harm, I am respectful and I have good manners.
So by your logic, there should have been no teenage/child murderers in the 1950/60s when giving your kids the belt was the norm, right?
